Clinical analysis of vertebrobasilar dissection.

abstract：:Since surgeons sometimes encounter difficulty in keeping self- retaining soft tissue retractors in the proper position for anterior cervical spinal surgery, we have developed a new, simple soft tissue retractor system, which is fixed to the side rails of the operating table via retractor stands. All three joints of th...
