Abstract:
[Objective]To study the curative effect and superiority of one stage anterior-posterior approach total spondylectomy and spinal reconstraction in the treatment of thoracolumbar malignant neoplasms.[Method]Twenty-four thoracolumbar malignant neoplasms patients treated by anterior approach total spondylectomy,spinal reconstractin with titanium mesh cage associated with bone graft or bone cement and posterior approach transpediuclar screw fixation.[Result]The follow-up of postoperation was from 9 to 35 months.All patients achieved relieve of pain after surgery,9 cases with incomplete paraplegia improved by 1.8 grades in average with Frankel neurological classifications,2 cases with dysfunction of urination and defecation were recovered,4 patients decease for metastasis in critical organ,all the patients showed bony fusion at 6~9 months,no internal fixation loosening or breakage case was found,1 case was recrudescent after one year.[Conclusion]Treatment of thoracolnmbar malignant neoplasms by one stage anterior-posterior approach total spondylectomy and spinal reconstraction can remove the neoplasms efficiently,reconstraction the spinal stabilization and improve the quality of life.
