Cervical osteomyelitis in the setting of multiple comorbidities: a complex anatomical approach. Illustrative case
This case underscores the need for unique surgical approaches in high-risk patients with complex anatomy. It highlights the importance of interdisciplinary care when managing VO, especially in patients with multiple comorbidities. Given the increasing rates of morbid obesity, this case provides valuable insights for neurosurgical decision-making in similar future cases. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE24448.
