Abstract:
Objective To analyze the clinical value of anterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation and simple decompression in the treatment of cervical vertebral multilevel degeneration.Methods Selected 40 patients with cervical degenerative changes in our hospital from 2012 to 2014,and 20 patients of them underwent anterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation while the other 20 cases took simple decompression.All the patients were well followed up,and the clinical therapeutic effect of the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results After operation,the VAS score and JOA score showed that the scores of the patients underwent anterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation were significandy improved compared with the simple decompression group,and the difference was statistically significant(P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the simple decompression group,the cervical curvature and the curvature of the surgerysection in the anterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation group were significantly improved,especially in the first year after surgery (P ＜ 0.05).The cervical spine joint activity of the two group were improved in the first year after surgery,and the difference was significant (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no significant difference in the degree of cervical joint activity at the last follow-up(P ＞ 0.05).The anterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation is better than simple decompression in the degree of cervical joint activity with statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The clinical effect of anterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation in treatment of multiple segment degeneration of cervical spine is better than that of simple decompression,it can meet the clinical requirements of biomechanics.
