Direct comparison of the correction of scoliosis achieved by different surgical methods is usually limited by the heterogeneity of the patients analyzed (their age, curve pattern, curve magnitude, etc.). The hypothesis is that an analysis of comparable scoliotic curves treated by different implant systems could detect subtle differences in outcome. The objective of this study was therefore: (1) to measure the 3D radiological parameters of scoliotic deformity and to quantify their postoperative changes, and (2) to compare the radiographic results achieved with one anterior and one posterior instrumentation methods applied to similar curves but representing different mechanisms of correction. Material and methods: The clinical notes and radiographs of 46 patients operated on for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were reviewed. The inclusion criteria consisted of: a single thoracic curve, right convex, a frontal Cobb angle minimum of 45° and a maximum of 65°, flexibility on a lateral bending test of more than 30%, and a Risser test value of between 1 and 4. The operative procedures were: Cotrel-Dubousset instrumentation (CDI) for 25 patients (the CD group) and correction by anterior instrumentation (Pouliquen plate) for 21 patients (the ANT group). Preoperative and postoperative long cassette standing antero-posterior and lateral radiographs were examined. The frontal and sagittal thoracic Cobb angle, apical vertebra transposition (AVT), apical vertebra rotation (AVR), lowest instrumented vertebra (LIV) tilt, C7 vertebra shift and rib cage shift (RCS) were all compared. A computed reconstruction was produced with Rachis-91 software. Vertebral axial rotation angle was evaluated throughout the spine. Results: Postoperative assessment revealed a mean correction of the frontal Cobb angle of 37.0° for the CD group and 41.0° for the ANT group. The AVT operative correction was 45.8 and 42.7 mm, respectively, and AVR correction was 1.8 and 12.6°, respectively. The postoperative change of the sagittal Th4–Th12 Cobb angle was not significant for any method but it was significant (P=0.05) for the CD group if the curves were divided preoperatively into hypokyphotic and normokyphotic subgroups and then analyzed separately. Computed assessment demonstrated a correction of segmental axial rotation of more than 50% in the main thoracic curve in the ANT group, significantly more than that in the CD group (P<0.001). Conclusions: Anterior instrumentation provided better correction of the vertebral axial rotation and of the rib hump. CD instrumentation was more powerful in translation and more specifically addressed the sagittal plane: the postoperative thoracic kyphosis angle increased in the hypokyphotic curves and slightly decreased in the normokyphotic curves.  相似文献

A prospective clinical and radiographic evaluation of 33 consecutive patients with severe and rigid idiopathic scoliosis (average Cobb angle 93°, flexibility on bending films 23%) were treated with combined anterior and posterior instrumentation with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. All patients underwent anterior release and VDS-Zielke Instrumentation of the primary curve. In highly rigid scoliosis, this was preceded by a posterior release. Finally, posterior correction and fusion with a multiple hook and pedicle screw construct was performed. Thirty patients were operated in one stage, three patients in two stages. Preoperative curves ranged from 80 to 122° Cobb angle. Frontal plane correction of the primary curve averaged 67% with an average loss of correction of 2°. The apical vertebral rotation of the primary curve was corrected by 49%. In all but three patients, sagittal alignment was restored. There were no neurological complications, deep wound infections or pseudarthrosis. Combined anterior and posterior instrumentation is safe and enables an effective three-dimensional curve correction in severe and rigid idiopathic scoliosis.  相似文献

Indications for surgery in Scheuermann disease are not well codified and remain rare, as the natural history of the disease is in most cases benign. In the immature adolescent, conservative treatment, such as bracing or casting, can be tried for moderate curves. For larger curves, or in the adult, conservative treatment is usually not effective, and surgery can be considered. Such indications are mostly cosmetic for large curves above 75°. Pain over the deformity or in the low back may represent another surgical indication, especially in the adult group. The question of anterior release or straight posterior fusion has become more of an actuality with the advent of powerful, third-generation stiff segmental instrumentation. However, the long-term results of a modern, posterior-only instrumentation fusion are not known. Concern about loss of correction, late pseudarthrosis or the need to remove instrumentation for infected hardware or due to late pain at the operative site must make us careful about choosing this method. Very rigid and large curves still require an anterior release, either done in a conventional or mini-open fashion, or through video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. The extent of the posterior instrumentation has now been better defined. One must fuse the whole Cobb angle without hypercorrection and stop distally, above the first lordotic disc, to avoid sagittal decompensation. New approaches such as short anterior fusion with bone-on-bone techniques and pedicle substraction osteotomies have not yet been reported in the literature as having been used for treating Scheuermanns kyphosis. These should be considered experimental.  相似文献

Rigid congenital kyphosis in myelomeningocele is associated with an important morbidity with skin breakdown, recurrent infection, and decreased function. Kyphectomy is the classic treatment to restore spinal alignment; however, surgery is associated with an important morbidity and long-term correction is uncertain. The authors retrospectively reviewed 9 patients with a mean age of 8.8 years who underwent a two stage surgical procedure: first a posterior kyphectomy with a modified Dunn-McCarthy fixation consisting of lumbar pedicle screws and long S-shape rods buttressing the anterior sacrum. Then a second stage done several weeks later consisting of a thoraco-abdominal approach to the spine with an inlay strut graft classically from T10–S1. The mean follow-up was 34 months (range 1–5 years). The kyphosis was corrected from a mean of 110° of Cobb angle (range 70–130°) to 15° after surgery (45–0°). There was no instrumentation failure, no loss of correction and no pseudarthrosis. Complications consisted of one intra-operative cardiac arrest fortunately reversible, a wound necrosis, one deep venous thrombosis and one late aseptic bursitis on the posterior hardware. Congenital kyphosis in myelomeningocele can be treated successfully with an initial posterior approach correction and instrumentation followed by an anterior approach allowing for anterior inlay impacted structural graft. The authors believe that this technique improves biomechanical and biological fusion mass anteriorly and will prevent late instrumentation failure and loss of correction.  相似文献

A retrospective follow-up study of patients who, having undergone instrumented posterior spinal fusion for scoliosis, experienced late infection and then underwent either implant removal alone or implant removal and instrumented refusion. We conducted this study to determine whether it is possible to avoid loss of correction by a single-stage implant removal and reinstrumentation procedure. There have been a few reports of late-appearing infections after spinal instrumentation. Implant bulk, metallurgic reactions, and contamination with low-virulence microorganisms have been suggested as possible etiologic factors. The clinical symptoms include pain, swelling, redness, and spontaneous drainage of fluid. Complete instrumentation removal and systemic antibiotics is usually curative. We retrospectively reviewed 45 patients who underwent instrumented posterior spinal fusion for scoliosis and experienced development of late infections and, after a mean of 3 years after the initial procedure, either underwent implant removal alone [n=35, instrumentation removal (HR) group] or additionally underwent reinstrumentation and fusion [n=10, reinstrumentation and fusion (RI&F) group]. Three patients were reinstrumented 1.5 years after instrumentation removal, and seven underwent a one-stage rod removal and reinstrumentation/refusion procedure. Allergic predisposition, protracted postoperative fever, and pseudarthrosis appear to increase the risk of late-developing infection after posterior spinal fusion. All wounds in both groups healed uneventfully. Preoperative radiographic Cobb measurements showed no statistically significant between-group differences. At follow-up, however, outcome was clearly better in the RI&F group: Loss of correction was significantly smaller in reinstrumented patients. Thus, the thoracic Cobb angle was 28±16° (range 0–55°) in the RI&F group versus 42±15° (21–80°) in the HR group, and the lumbar Cobb angle was 22±11° (10–36°) in the RI&F group versus 29±12° (13–54°) in the HR group. The results of our study demonstrate that wound healing is usually uneventful after instrumentation removal for late infection, also when patients undergo instrumented refusion in a one-stage procedure. Reinstrumentation appears to achieve permanent correction of scoliosis.  相似文献

Our objective was to report on the clinical and radiological outcome from a cohort of patients with neuromuscular scoliosis who underwent selective anterior single rod instrumentation for correction of thoraco-lumbar and lumbar scoliosis. Traditionally combined anterior release with long posterior instrumentation has been advocated for the treatment of neuromuscular scoliosis. Neuromuscular curves tend to be long and may have significant pelvic obliquity. However, certain neuromuscular curves with minimal pelvic obliquity may lend themselves to selective anterior correction thereby saving motion segments and allow continued ambulation for those patients. Nine patients with neuromuscular scoliosis underwent selective anterior instrumentation between 1994 and 2000. The mean follow up was 2 years and 9 months (range 24–55 months). The clinical outcome (including parent and caregiver satisfaction), radiological outcome (Cobb angle, apical vertebral translation, pelvic obliquity, truncal shift, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, sagittal vertical axis) and complications are reported. Subjective outcome was excellent in six patients and good in three. All nine patients retained their ability to walk. There were no neurological or vascular complications. Supplementary posterior surgery was required in two patients. The mean pre-operative Cobb angle of 52° (range 44–60) improved to 20° (range 10–28) at 3 months, achieving Cobb angle correction of 61% and was 19° (range 7–28) at final follow-up. The mean pre-operative compensatory curve of 31° (range 20–42) spontaneously corrected to 18° (range 14–24) at 3 months and was maintained at 18° (range 10–26) at final follow up. The mean pre-operative pelvic obliquity of 7° (range 0–14) corrected to 4° (range 0–8) at 3 months and was 3° (range 0–8) at final follow up. Selective anterior instrumentation and fusion in carefully selected patients with neuromuscular scoliosis (short flexible curves, minimal pelvic obliquity, pre-operative walkers, slow or non-progressive pathology) appears to have satisfactory clinical and radiological outcome at least in the short-term.  相似文献

Summary The rotation and structural changes of the apex vertebra in the horizontal plane as well as of the thoracic cage deformity were quantified by measurements on computed tomography (CT) scans from patients with right convex thoracic idiopathic scoliosis (IS). The CT scans were obtained from 12 patients with moderate scoliosis (mean Cobb angle 25.8°, r 13°–30°) and from 33 with severe scoliosis (mean Cobb angle 46.2°, r 35°–71°). In addition, CT scans of thoracic vertebrae from 15 patients without scoliosis were used as reference material. Ten of the scoliotic cases had had Cotrel-Dubousset instrumentation (CDI) and posterior fusion and had entered a longitudinal study on the effect of operative correction on the re-modelling of the apical vertebra. An increasingly asymmetrical vertebral body, transverse process angle, pedicle width and canal width were found in the groups with scoliosis as compared with the reference material. Vertebral rotation and rib hump index were significantly larger in patients with early and advanced scoliosis than in normal subjects. The modelling angle of the vertebral body, the transverse process angle index and the vertebral rotation in relation to the middle axis of the thoracic cage were significantly greater in patients with severe than with moderate scoliosis. The results of this longitudinal study suggest that the structural changes of the apical vertebra regress 2 years or more after CD instrumentation.  相似文献

Objective: To prospectively evaluate the clinical and radiographic effects of posterior surgery with wide posterior shortening release and segmental pedicle screws techniques in a consecutive group of patients with thoracolumbar /lumbar adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Methods: Between April 2002 and July 2005, 114 patients (86 women and 28 men) were enrolled in this study. There were 72 Lenke type 5, 32 Lenke type 6, and 10 Lenke type 3C curves. Radiographic parameters such as coronal plane Cobb angle; lordosis angle; lowest instrumented vertebrae (LIV) angulation; and the distances from the central sacral vertical line (CSVL) to the LIV, to the apical vertebra and to the C7 plumb line, were analyzed. Complication rates were also recorded during follow‐up. Results: The average coronal correction was from 61° to 13° (78.6%). In the sagittal plane, lumbar lordosis was normalized from 36° with a wide range (23°–67°) to 42° with a normal range (34°–55°). The LIV had 79% correction of coronal angulations. The center sacral line to LIV was improved from 2.3 cm to 0.5 cm, apex to center sacral line from 5.0 cm to 1.6 cm, and CSVL from 2.7 cm to 0.8 cm. A total of 1460 pedicle screws were placed safely, average 9.6 levels (5–14) were fused. The patients were followed up for an average of 30 months (range, 12–50). There was excellent maintenance of correction at final follow‐up. Conclusion: Wide posterior release and segmental pedicle screw instrumentation has excellent radiographic and clinical results with minimal complications.  相似文献

Long-term results of convex epiphysiodesis for congenital scoliosis   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Summary The objective of this study was to evaluate the long term outcome of combined anterior and posterior convex spinal epiphysiodesis in the treatment of congenital scoliosis. The study covered 53 patients (27 male, 26 female) with a minimum follow up period from surgery of 3 years (mean 8.8 years, range 3–22.5 years). Of these, 34 were skeletally mature when reviewed. Clinical assessment and sequential measurement of Cobb angles were used to chart the course of the deformity following surgery. The types of vertebral anomalies encountered were: 4 unsegmented bars, 7 unsegmented bars with hemivertebrae, 30 hemivertebrae (of which 2 were double hemivertebrae) and 12 complex (unclassifiable) patterns. The severe types were concentrated in the thoracic spine. Results are presented with reference to the type and site of anomaly and to the age of the patient at the time of surgery. Where deformity was due to an unsegmented bar (with or without hemivertebra) the rate of change of Cobb angle was slowed, but not reversed, following surgery, For the complex anomalies there was a reduction in the rate of progression of deformity following surgery, however, the final Cobb angle still increased from a mean of 61° to 70°. In contrast, the rate of progression reversed or slowed in 97% of the hemivertebra patients following surgery, producing a change in mean Cobb angle from 41° pre-operatively to 35° post-operatively. For each type of anomaly the correction achieved was greater where the surgery was performed at a younger age. Final outcome was influenced by the site of anomaly, with a better correction being achieved in the lumbar than the thoracic spine. In conclusion, we feel that convex epiphysiodesis has an important role in the surgical management of congenital scoliosis and, for hemivertebrae in particular, it can produce significant correction of deformity.  相似文献
