✍️ A 19-year-old woman underwent a novel surgery to remove cancerous tumors from her spine through her eye socket, a first-of-its-kind procedure.
👉 The surgery was the first of its kind to remove a spinal tumor through the eye socket.
👉 The tumor had wrapped around the spinal cord and was potentially life-threatening.
👉 The surgeons used a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon to create a pathway to the spine.
👉 The procedure allowed for the removal of the tumor without damaging nearby blood vessels or nerves.
