Abstract
Documentation of three-dimensional (3D) images of a giant sacral schwannoma with intrapelvic expansion. Nagoya University, Nagoya, Japan. 3D computed tomography (3D CT) showed a destructed bony region clearly. 3D CT angiography clarified the positional relationship between tumor and iliac arteries. Resection procedure was safely completed based on these 3D evaluations. 3D images were helpful to make a surgical plan and to complete this complicated resection combined with sacroiliac reconstruction.
