Abstract:
Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of pedicle subtraction osteotomy(PSO)and posterior unilateral vertebral column resection(PUVCR)for old thoracolumbar compressive fracture accompanied with kyphotic deformity.Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 51 patients with old thoracolumbar fracture accompanied with kyphotic deformity admitted to the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2010 to January 2016.There were 29 males and 22 females,aged 46-69 years,with an average age of 54.9 years.In terms of the injured segments,there were 11 patients with T11,10 with T12,17 with L1,and 13 with L2.A total of 22 patients were treated with traditional PSO(PSO group),and 29 patients PUVCR(PUVCR group).The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,hospital stay,Cobb angle improvement 2 weeks after operation and postoperative 1 year,visual analogue scale(VAS) 1 year after operation and Japanese Orthopedic Association(JOA)scores were compared between the two groups.Intraoperative and postoperative complications were recorded.Results All patients were followed up for 3-18 months,with an average of 13.5 months.There were no significant differences between PSO group and PUVCR group in hospital stay[(13.8±1.1)days vs.(14.1±1.2)days],thoracolumbar Cobb angle 2 weeks after operation[(8.3±1.5)°vs.(9.1±2.0).]and JOA scores[(26.2±1.2)points vs(25.5±1.5)points](P＞0.05).Significant differences were found between PUVCR group and PSO group in operation time[(184.9±22.9)minutes vs.(219.9±17.1)minutes],intraoperative blood loss[(911.5±70.2)ml vs.(1136.1±92.0)ml],Cobb angle 1 year after operation[(10.0±1.6)°vs.(12.7±1.9)°],and VAS 1 year after operation[(2.3±0.5)points vs.(2.9±0_ 7)points](P＜0.05).No serious complications occurred during operation and follow-up.Conclusions For old thoracolumbar compressive fracture accompanied with kyphotic deformity,PSO and PUVCR can both effectively improve kyphosis and relieve dysfunction.But PUVCR has the advantages of shorter operation time,less intraoperative blood loss,better-improved kyphosis,and lower incidence of spinal nerve injury.
