Abstract:
From 1978 to 1989, we carried out 15 resections of single vertebral bodies, with homologous femoral head transplantation, for malignant and benign lesions of the spine. The advantages of this procedure are compared to fixation with bone cement, autologous bone grafts and other materials. The results are discussed.
