Abstract:
Objective To study the theraputic effect of rebuilt posterior ligamentous complex in the treatment of thoracolumbar fracture.Method From 2003 to 2007,60 patients who had simple thoracolumbar fractures were treated with rebuild of posterior ligamentous complex(group A).At the same time,50 patients with the same condition were treated with ablation of posterior ligamentous complex(group B).Modify Japanese orthopedic association low back pain score(M-JOA)score and Functional Rating scales for Low Back Pain(FRS)score for lumbar function were compared between two groups perioperatively.Results Preoperative M-JOA score for lumbar function of group A was from 19 to 30 score,on average of23.83.M-JOA score of group B was from 17 to 30 score on average of 21.68.There was no significant different between group A and group B(P>0.05).Postoperative M-JOA score for lumbar function of group A was from 8 to 12 score,on average of 9.05.M-JOA score of group B was from 9 to 14 score.on average of 11.95.There was significant difference between group A and group B(P<0.01).Preoperative FRS score was 28.85 in group A and 26.56 in group B averagely(P>0.05)while postoperative FRS score was 68.22(46-84)in group A and 46.87(39-65)in group B(P<0.05).Conclusion Management with rebuild of posterior ligamentous complex for thoracolumbar fractures contributes to the improvement of the postoperative lumbar function and clinical symptoms.
