Figure 3. Combined anterior and posterior fusion of the cervical spine. Lateral radiograph demonstrates an anterior column reconstruction with a fibular allograft and an anterior plate and screws after vertebral body resection (corpectomy) at multiple levels, as well as a posterior column reconstruction with articular pillar screws and rods. The structural integrity of the anterior and posterior columns made reconstruction of the middle column unnecessary.
