X-rays, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance studies documented C2 vertebral collapse with the complete destruction of both lateral masses. The surgery required a laminectomy (i.e., bilateral lateral mass resection), plus placement of bilateral expandable titanium cages from C1 to C3 to supplement the screw\/rod occipitocervical (O-C4) fixation. Adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy were also administered.
