中国脊柱外科发展历程

脊柱外科是建立在现代医学、脊柱矫形内植物和生物力学基础上的骨科学重要分支之一。随着生物科学的发展、材料学和工程学的密切结合,以及新医疗技术的出现,脊柱外科也得以不断的发展和完善。中国的脊柱外科学组成立于1985年,我国学者在各方面都进行了大量的工作,例如脊柱骨折脱位和/或脊髓神经损伤、脊柱感染、脊柱肿瘤、脊柱退行性疾病等疾病的治疗,以及基础研究方面。同时中国的脊柱外科学者还独立开发了很多新的技术和方法,在基础理论和临床实践方面均取得了长足的进步。近年来,通过增加国内国际的交流,我国的脊柱外科水平迅速提高,某些领域已达到世界先进水平。本文从我国脊柱外科学组的成立、脊柱手术学、脊柱内固定技术、微创技术及基础研究等方面简要回顾了我国脊柱外科的发展历程,希望借此推动和促进我国脊柱外科的发展。

Development of spine surgery in China

Spine surgery,one of the most important ramifications in orthopedics,has stemmed from modern medicine,in vivo implantation and biomechanics.Its continuous perfe ction and development have been goin g side by side with advancement of medical s cience,close affiliation of new materials and engineering,and unceasing invention of new techniques.The Chinese Spine Surgery Group of the Chinese Medical Association Orthopedic Society was es-tablished in 1985.Since then great progress has been made in both basic th eory and clinical practice.Chinese surg eons have done a marvelous job in almo st every field of spine surgery,such as treatment and basic research of spin al fracture and dislocation and /or com bined with the spinal cord injury,sp inal infection and neoplasm,and degenerative spine diseases.They have also de-veloped many new techniques and meth ods independently.With increasing communication with both domestic an d international scholars,spine sur gery in China has reached a new level and caught up with the most advanced in the world in some fields.This paper reviews the brief history of Chinese spin e surgery with special reference to th e Chinese Spine Surgery Group,surge ry ap-proaches,internal fixation techni ques,minimally invasive surgery an d basic research.
