    AbstractAnterior compression of the spinal cord at the level of the thoracic vertebrae cannot be corrected adequately through a posterior approach (laminectomy). This widely encountered form of spinal cord compression calls for a differentiated use of the anterolateral or lateral approach to the vertebral canal, i.e. combination of osteotransversectomy with hemilaminectomy. A lateral access to the vertebral canal is indicated in most cases.
