  • Title: Retropleural approach to the thoracic and thoracolumbar spine.
    Author: McCormick PC.
    Journal: Neurosurgery; 1995 Nov; 37(5):908-14. PubMed ID: 8559339.
    Abstract:
    Retropleural thoracotomy was used in 15 patients for the management of ventral thoracic and thoracolumbar spine abnormalities. This approach provides the shortest direct route to the anterior thoracic spine and avoids pleural cavity entry. A detailed description of retropleural thoracotomy and the clinical experiences of 15 patients treated with it are presented.
