Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Due to the emergence of drug-resistant tuberculosis and mismanagement in tuberculosis patients,the incidence of delayed healing or recurrent after spinal tuberculosis surgery is gradualy increasing,especialy in strongly predisposal children.Therefore,exploring the risk factors of delayed healing orpost-operative recurrence in pediatric patients after spinal tuberculosis surgery,wil have significance in the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the risk factors of delayed healing or post-operative recurrence in pediatric spinal tuberculosis,and evaluate the efficacy of individualized re-operation.METHODS:From June 1998 to June 2013,clinical data of 145 pediatric patients with spinal tuberculosis were reviewed retrospectively,and some cases of delayed healing or post-operative recurrence in spinal tuberculosis were compared with other without delayed healing or post-operative recurrence.The patient's age,gender,nutritional condition,lesion debridement,history of chemotherapy and internal fixation,complicated spinal lesion,scope of lesions,preoperative erythrocyte sedimentation rate >60 mm/h,and postoperative complications were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis.The risk factors of delayed healing or post-operative recurrence were analyzed.After re-operation,erythrocyte sedimentation rate,C-reactive protein and imaging studies were detected.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After surgery,29 cases appeared delayed healing or post-operative recurrence and 12 of them received re-operation.The incidence of delayed healing or post-operative recurrence in pediatric spinal tuberculosis was 20%and the re-operation rate was 8.3%.Logistic regression analysis showed that,nutritional condition,history of chemotherapy,lesion debridement,and scope of lesions were significantly correlated with delayed healing or post-operative recurrence (P<0.05).While patient's age,gender,history of internal fixation,complicated spinal lesion,preoperative erythrocyte sedimentation rate >60 mm/h,and postoperative complications had no correlation with the delayed healing or post-operative recurrence (P >0.05).Individualized re-operation can achieve good outcomes.Experimental findings indicate that,the risk factors of delayed healing or post-operative recurrence in pediatric spinal tuberculosis are very complex,enhancing the nutrition,complete debridement of lesions,and receiving chemotherapy can effectively decrease the incidence.According to the initial surgery and patient's conditions,individualized re-operation is the key to the success.
