This is a very interesting post to me since I am in the same boat. Yet I've never heard of this before. What kind of intubation does Dr. Bertagnoli do for patients with cord compression? Is this a terrifying procedure for the patient? I can't conceive of what it must be like. I'd think they'd have to tie me down.
I hope Mark or others who have had c-spine ADR with osteophytes and cord compression will weigh in on this.
