Occlusion of the Basivertebral Foramen

$10.00

This one might help you get out of a stressful situation. A complete decompressive hemilaminectomy often requires tearing or obliteration of the internal venous sinus and the resulting hemorrhage can be difficult to control. The basivertebral foramen is a structure on the floor of the spinal canal from which the basivertebral vein emerges. The basivertebral vein connects the internal venous sinus to the caudal vena cava. Blindly occluding the foramen can significantly help control hemorrhage. In this video, Sean Sanders describes the technique.
