The presented case developed multilevel osteomyelitic destruction of the cervical spine after decompression due to cervical myelopathy. He could be cured by a multiple-stage procedure: step one: debridement and removal of all anterior implants with vacuum-assisted closure combined with dorsal instrumentation from C0 to T3; step two: anterior reconstruction with expandable titanium cages and plate. The patient regained walking with the aid of a walking frame. The following recommendations are given: multiple stage procedure, extensive debridement and stabilization via an anterior and posterior approach, use of titanium implants.
