后前路联合手术治疗严重颈椎退行性疾病

目的探讨后前路联合手术治疗严重颈椎退行性疾病的疗效和手术适应证。方法施行后前路联合手术治疗严重颈椎退行性疾病17例,其中男11例,女6例;年龄46-72岁,平均56.3岁。3例分期后前路手术,14例一期后前路手术。手术步骤为先行后路单开门椎管扩大成形术,然后一期或分期（6个月后）行前路椎管前方减压、植骨融合内固定术。结果无围手术期死亡及神经功能加重病例,术后发生脑脊液漏2例,轴性疼痛2例。术后随访13例,JOA评分由术前平均（8.3±2.28）分增至术后平均（13.1±1.27）分,手术前后评分差异显著（t=11.5,P〈0.01）,脊髓功能改善率为66.5%。结论一期后前路联合手术疗效满意。该手术方式减压充分,可降低单纯前路手术脊髓损伤的风险和减少单纯后路手术后C5神经根麻痹的发生率,适用于全身情况较好、多节段颈椎病变伴脊髓前方局部受压严重的患者。
