Highlights
A commentary on Complete cranial iliac osteotomy to approach the lumbosacral foramen by Dyall B, Schmoekel H
The original technique of a lumbosacral lateral foraminotomy through an iliac osteotomy required an osteotomy based on the same landmarks as in this case report (2)
The technique was applied on 13 dogs, some had bilateral procedures, Commentary on Cranial Iliac Osteomy and our conclusion on a larger population remains unchanged— a lateral foraminotomy after ventrolateral reflection of the cranial aspect of the ilium provides an adequate approach to the lateral aspect of the L7-S1 intervertebral disc, the seventh lumbar nerve root, and all three zones of the lumbosacral foramen in a repeatable manner, irrespective of signalment
