Abstract
We reported two operative cases of bone dysplasias with spastic tetraplegia. Case 1 was a 60-year-old man, 130cm in height and 42kg in weight. Because he had a dysplasia with rhizomelic micromelia and a trident hand deformity, we decided him to be an achondroplasia.Because he suffered from spastic tetraplegia due to multiple developmental canal stenosis, we operated on his cervical spine. Case 2 was a 34-year-old man, 110cm and 32kg. Because he had a rhizomelic micromelia and his metaphysical deformity was severe, we decided him to be a pseudo-achondroplasia. Because he suffered from spastic tetraplegia and respiratory disturbance due to cord compression in C1/2 level, we performed posterior decompression of C1 and occipito-cervical-fusion.
