Case Report: Does the misplaced titanium mesh cage after total spondylectomy causing cervicothoracic cord compression need to be removed during revision surgery?
When a subsided and migrated titanium mesh cage is difficult to remove after mechanical failure following total spondylectomy, recovering sagittal alignment to achieve indirect decompression based on unique anterior and middle column reconstruction, solid instrument construction, and bone fusion is an alternative solution.
