Abstract:
A total of 45 patients with indication of vertebroplasty using unilateral approach were detected by CT scanning,2D and 3D reconstruction methods to measure the angle between vertebral pedicle and 1/3 of median horizontal plane,distance from skin needle entry point to spinous process at the horizontal plane as well as the declination angle between vertebral pedicle and sagittal plane.The three-dimensional anterior-posterior perspecitive images of vertebra were reduced to identify the entry point.The measurement results showed significant changes in introversion angle at T4-L5:T4-T8 was 23.75?-25.34?,T9-L1 was 25.74?-26.83?,and L2-L5 was 27.45?-41.57?;but minimal changes in declination angle at sagittal plane,from 19.17? to 25.24?;the open distance adjacent to the spinous process was increased from thoracic vertebra to lumbar vertebra:T4-T8 was 2.56?-2.87?,T9-L1 was 3.05?-3.61?,L2-L5 was 3.89?-8.23?.The best vertebral puncture point reduction was located at 9-11 points of the left,1-3 point of the right.Imaging-based measurements of introversion angle,declination angle,entry point and distance of spinous process at the horizontal plane are important data for percutaneous vertebroplasty.According to pedicle shape features at different stages,included angle,puncture point,path and depth,the vertebroplasty could be performed accurately and safely with reduced damage.Moreover,reliable data are provided for the design of a three-dimensional puncture-oriented device.
