A member asked:
Is it possible to fuse c2 to t2 in a 2 1/2 hour surgery, or did we misunderstand what our relatives communicated? thank you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
C2 is at the top of the neck and T2 at the top of the chest. Not likely that they would be fused since so much is between them. I would guess you have a miscommunication here about the fusion being created for a spinal issue.
