    Journal: Zh Vopr Neirokhir Im N N Burdenko; 1983; (5):3-8. PubMed ID: 6650038.
    Abstract:
    From experience of many years, the author developed a method for the treatment of patients suffering from closed injury to the cervical spine and spinal cord. The method includes the correction of deformities of the spine and spinal canal and all types of compression of the spinal cord through an anterior or posterior approach, each having its definite indications. As a result of the application of the method in 208 patients lethality was reduced to 10.6% and the conducting function of the damaged spinal cord was improved, in some cases considerably, in 59.6% of the patients.
