Abstract:
Objective:To explore the efficacy of balloon dilation percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) combined with prying reduction bone grafting in the treatment of thoracolumbar fractures, and its impact on patients′neurological function.Methods:The clinical data of 184 patients with thoracolumbar fractures from March 2017 to May 2020 in Cangzhou Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital of Hebei Province were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 86 patients were treated with balloon dilation PKP combined with prying reduction and bone grafting (combined group), and 98 patients were treated with open reduction decompression and internal fixation (internal fixation group). The intraoperative bleeding volume, surgical time, intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, efficacy and complications were recorded. One year after surgery, X-ray films were taken to measure the height of the anterior border and posterior border of vertebral body and the Cobb angle, and the pain visual analogue score (VAS), Barthel index and neurological Frankel grade were evaluated.Results:The intraoperative bleeding volume and surgical time in combined group were significantly higher than those in internal fixation group: (205.64 ± 45.63) ml vs. (180.37 ± 30.08) ml and (110.22 ± 28.91) min vs. (81.66 ± 20.77) min, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there was no statistical difference in intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency between the two groups ( P>0.05). The total effective rate in combined group was significantly higher than that in internal fixation group: 91.86% (79/86) vs. 79.59% (78/98), the total incidence of complications was significantly lower than that in internal fixation group: 13.95% (12/86) vs. 38.78% (38/98), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01). The height of the anterior border and posterior border of vertebral body 1 year after surgery in combined group were significantly higher than those in internal fixation group: (95.78 ± 1.59) mm vs. (62.74 ± 1.80) mm and (98.53 ± 3.80) mm vs. (95.06 ± 3.28) mm, the Cobb angle was significantly smaller than that in internal fixation group: (6.53 ± 2.80)° vs. (18.06 ± 2.68)°, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The VAS and Barthel index 1 year after surgery in both groups improved significantly, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01), but there were no statistical differences between the two groups ( P>0.05). The rate of neurological Frankel grade E 1 year after surgery in combined group was significantly higher than that in internal fixation group: 56.98% (49/86) vs. 23.47% (23/98), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Compared with open reduction decompression and internal fixation, the balloon dilation PKP combined with prying reduction and bone grafting patients with thoracolumbar fractures is better for vertebral reduction and deformity repair, with higher safety, more significant pain relief, and better recovery of daily life and neurological function.
