Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the short-term clinical effect of the cervical anterior Hybrid surgery in the treatment of two-segment and three-segment cervical spondylosis.
METHODS:From January 2018 to January 2019, 108 patients who were performed anterior Hybrid surgery with cervical degenerative diseases were collected. The patients were divided into a two-segment group with 52 patients and a three-segment group with 56 patients according to surgical segments. In two-segment group, there were 24 males and 28 females, aged from 35 to 67 years old with an average of(45.94±14.67) years old. In three-segment group, there were 23 males and 33 females, aged from 32 to 65 years old with an average of (47.54±15.34) years old. The outcome indicators of the two groups were compared. Clinical indicators:neck disability index(NDI) was used to evaluate daily life ability, Japanese Orthopedic Association(JOA) score was used to evaluate neurological function improvement, visual analogue scale(VAS) was used to evaluate pain intensity, and general clinical results were graded according to Odom's score. Cervical range of motion (ROM), fusion and complications were measured by X-ray, CT and MRI.
RESULTS:All operations were successfully completed and all patients were followed up for more than 12 months. The operation time of two-segment group and three-segment group were 95 to 180 min with an average of(152.30±44.74) min and 110 to 210 min with an average of (165.18±45.86) mins, the blood loss were 20 to 100 ml with an average of (32.88±8.75) ml and 20 to 150 ml with an average of(34.64±10.63) ml respectively which has no statistical differences between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with those before surgery, NDI, JOA, VAS and Odom's scores between two groups were significantly improved at 12 months after operation(P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the NDI, JOA and Odom's scores between two groups (P>0.05), and VAS in three-segment group was higher than that in two-segment group. There was no significant difference in C3-C7 cervical mobility between two groups. Surgical incisions healed smoothly in all patients without complication such as spinal cord injury and cerebrospinal fluid leakage. The bone fusion of the two groups were 43 cases (82.69%) and 45 cases(80.35%) respectively. In two-segment group, there were 2 cases of adjacent segmental hyperosteogeny, and there were 3 cases of adjacent segmental hyperosteogeny and 1 case of adjacent posterior longitudinal ligament ossification in the three-segment group. In addition, in three-segment group, there was 1 case of looseness of implants with no obvious clinical symptoms.
CONCLUSION:The anterior Hybrid surgery in treating multi-level cervical spondylosis could not only improve clinical symptoms of patients but also preserve mobility. Meanwhile, the efficacy and safety of Hybrid surgery in different multi-level cervical disc diseases are confirmed, proving its value in clinical practice.
