    Author: Russell SM, Benjamin V.
    Journal: Neurosurgery; 2004 May; 54(5):1144-9; discussion 1149. PubMed ID: 15113469.
    Abstract:
    THE ANTERIOR SURGICAL APPROACH to the cervical spine in patients with discogenic compressive pathological findings causing radiculopathy or myelopathy is a commonly performed operation with several technical variations. We describe the normal and pathological anatomy and the techniques of surgical decompression of the dura with autograft fusion, which we have used for the past 35 years.
