The surgical management of ventrally located intraspinal tumours is often difficult, particularly in the upper thoracic region. The anterior approach to these tumours is hindered by anatomical structures. We report our experience using the trans-sternal approach. Three patients with intraspinal tumour between T1 and T4 underwent this approach. The surgical technique, the clinical presentation, the radiological features and the results are presented.
脊髓腹侧肿瘤的手术治疗通常具有挑战性，尤其是在上胸段区域。这些肿瘤的前路手术会受到解剖结构的阻碍。我们报告了采用经胸骨入路的经验。3例胸1至胸4节段的脊髓肿瘤患者接受了该手术入路。文中介绍了手术技术、临床表现、影像学特征及结果。
