摘要：

The authors discuss their recent experience with anteriorly located Cl-C2 neurofibromata in five patients with cervical myelopathy and magnetic resonance scans consistent with intradural extramedullary masses in this region. Surgery was performed using a posterolateral approach with microscopic intradural exploration. Gross total intradural tumor removal was achieved in all cases. Improvement in cervical myelopathy occurred in all patients. This report concludes that Cl-C2 neurofibromata located anterior to the spinal cord can be totally and safely removed using a posterolateral approach. Improvement in neurologic dysfunction accompanies posterior decompression and gross total intradural tumor removal. © 1990.
