Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of arc-track private lock pedicle orthopedic fixation system Ⅱ (ALPF Ⅱ) on treatment of spinal diseases. METHODS: A total of 86 patients with spinal diseases were treated using self-made ALPF in the Wendeng Orthopaedic Hospital and were included in this study. Of these patients, 14 suffered from cervical spinal stenosis complicated by cervical vertebral destabilization, 29 from thoracolumbar fractures and dislocations, 15 from lumbar spinal stenosis complicated by lumbar vertebral destabilization, 2 from lumbar spondylolisthesis, 8 from spinal tuberculosis, 6 from ankylosing spondylitis, 9 from idiopathic scoliosis, and 3 from congenital scoliosis. According to conditions, different therapeutic regimens were selected. Postoperatively, regular follow-up was performed to observe vertebral healing, intervertebral height, spinal column sequence, and neurological function recovery. RESULTS: All patients were followed up for 9-30 months (average 12 months). The improvement rate of neurological function, spinal mobility, back pain, and melosalgia was 94.1%, 65.9%, 92.1%, and 87.4%, respectively. The postoperative anterior and posterior vertebral heights were apparently recovered, and kyphotic angle was well corrected. No screw, rod loosening or breakage was found. CONCLUSION: Self-made ALPF Ⅱ is an internal fixation method for treatment of spinal diseases. It provides good reduction, reliable curative effects, less complications, and no biocompatibilities.
