摘要：

Three patients with a history of anterior spinal surgery treated with a polymethylmethacrylate construct had extrusion of their constructs. In two instances, there were life-threatening esophageal fistulas, mediastinitis, and sepsis 3 months to 10 years after the original surgery. Surgical treatment required removal of the construct, treatment of the esophageal injury, and use of new spinal stabilization. Based on their experience and a review of the literature, the authors strongly recommend against the use of polymethylmethacrylate alone in anterior procedures involving the cervical spine except to treat malignancies in patients with a short life expectancy.
