Abstract:
[Objective]To discuss the methods of insertion the pedicle screws of thoracic vertebrae and sum the results of correction of idiopathic scoliosis.[Method]Bone of entrance was removed with rongeur forceps.According to the depth and rotation preoperative,to drill using 1.5 mm and 2.5 mm Kirschner wire.If the resistance was increasing and Kirschner wire was bending,it needs to adjust the direction.Stop to drill whenachieve the depth,after checking the hole using special probe then strike awl in the hole.Checking the hole using specillum again then insert the screws.[Result]97% were successful inserted by one time.There were no patients with spinal cord injury and leakage of cerebrospinal fluid and no infection of incisionsl wound.The correction rate in coronal plane was 73% after surgery.The Cobb's angle in sagittal plane was from 6? to 30?,with average of 23?.Rotation deformity was corrected Ⅰ to Ⅱ degree.There were 103 patients.Follow-up duration was with average 4.9 years.Trunk balance was good and no flat back was happen.Bone graft fused well.The correction lost 3.7% in coronal plane at final follow up.One case was with late infection and 2 patients were with screws broken.The internal fixations were removed out.[Conclusion]Using Kirschner wire to made screw hole is a good way to insert thoracic vertebrace pedicle screw.Screw-rod system had favourable three diamensions correct control force.Fully pedicle screw to correct idiopathic scoliosis has good results.
