Summary

This case study highlights a rare two-level non-contiguous vertebral column resection (VCR) surgery for severe spinal deformity in an ankylosing spondylitis patient. The staged VCR successfully corrected rigid kyphoscoliosis and restored spinal balance.

Area of Science:

Orthopedics
Neurosurgery
Spinal Surgery

Background:

Spinal deformities can cause significant disability, including imbalance and pain.
