Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive percutaneous pedicle screw fixation possesses the advantages of less blood loss, less muscle and soft tissue dissection, and rapid recovery; however, accuracy of the screw positioning is the key to be successful.OBJECTIVE: To explore the application value of self-designed spinal localizer in the screw positioning for minimally invasive percutaneous pedicle screw fixation.METHODS: 428 patients with thoracolumber disorders were subjected to minimally invasive percutaneous pedicle screw fixation at the First Affiliated Hospital of University of South China, from March 2009 to March 2015, and randomly underwent the preoperative screw positioning by self-designed spinal localizer or one of traditional localizing methods (iliac crest, ribs, symptomatic vertebral appearance, skin marker, Kirscher wire, puncture needle localizations). The location accuracy, positioning time and radiographic times were compared among methods.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Compared with the traditional localization methods, the self-designed spinal localizer was superior in accurate rate (P < 0.05), cost less positioning time (P < 0.05) and received less radiation (P < 0.05). (2) To conclude, the self-designed localizer exhibits a certain application value, which is an ideal method in preoperative localization for minimally invasive percutaneous pedicle screw fixation.
