Abstract

In this case report, we demonstrate that the use of a winged expandable cage was able to obtain good clinical and radiological results in a case of cervical tuberculosis with severe kyphosis. However, case series will be necessary to affirm its validity as a stand-alone device for similar cases with high risk of instability.
