ABSTRACT
Multiple level laminectomies are a destructive procedure complicating kyphosis, anterior subluxation and instability of the spine in children. The surgical procedure of multiple level osteoplastic laminotomies was proposed as an alternative by Raimondi et al in 1976. The goal is preservation of the normal architecture of the spine in patients who are still developing. We have experienced a case of multiple level laminotomies(T4-T11) for removal of epidural neuroblastoma in a 3-month old baby. The technical points of surgical procedure were discussed.
