case_images: ALL of the spine and immobile. Curved aneurysm clips [Figure 2] were applied to the lacerated opening of the CC, which caused a cessation in the flow of lymphatic fluid into the disk space. A total of three aneurysm clips were placed, and the CC was then visually inspected to ensure that the aneurysm clips did not occlude the lumen.

case_images: The disk space was then filled with poly-methyl-methacrylate cement, preventing migration of the clips by anchoring the aneurysm clips in place and providing intervertebral support in place of an interbody cage [Figure 3].
