Abstract
This video depicts the resection of three separate intradural extramedullary spinal tumors performed under the same anesthetic. Neuromonitoring was used to identify motor nerve roots, and laminoplasty was performed at the thoracolumbar junction to preserve alignment and minimize the risk of postoperative CSF leak.
