Abstract:
[Objective]To study the feasibility and clinical effect of the treatment of thoracolumbar vertebral fracture with limited decompression of neighbouring segments with internal fixation and intervertebral body fusion.[Method]Forty-three patients with thoracolumbar fractures were treated with this technique.The fusion of bone graft,reduction rate of fracture,nerve functional recovery,the loosening of rectification,subsequent low back pain,and the degeneration of adjacent segments were evaluated.[Result]All cases were followed up for 21.4 months and showed the results of strong spine bony fusion,96.1% satisfactory reduction rate without reduction lost,various differences of nerve functional improvement,a rank-sum test P
