Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and precautions of O-arm combined with navigation-assisted steotomy and hemivertebra resection for congenital cervicothoracic hemivertebra.Methods:From February 2016 to October 2020, the clinical data of 12 patients with cervicothoracic hemivertebra admitted in Henan Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including 5 males and 7 females, aged 9.4±2.6 years (range, 4-15 years). Intraoperative neural monitoring system was used to ensure the safety of surgical correction process and O-arm navigation system assisted the implantation of pedicle screws,hemivertebra resection, and scoliosis deformity correction. Postoperative CT was used to evaluate the accuracy of screw placement, and routine preoperative and postoperative X-ray films of the full-length spine in standing position were taken to measure the coronal and sagittal Cobb angles. The correction rate of scoliosis and kyphosis, internal fixation, shoulder height difference and bone graft fusion were calculated at the final follow-up.Results:A total of 108 pedicle screws were inserted in 12 patients, and the screw placement accuracy rate was 96.3% (104/108). The follow-up time was 37.9±10.2 months (range, 24-61 months). The number of fused segments was 5.4±1.1 (range, 4-7). One week after surgery, the correction rate of Cobb angle was 78.5%±3.2% for scoliosis and 70.1%±5.4% for kyphosis. There were statistically significant differences in side and kyphosis Angle and Scoliosis Research Society (SRS)-22 score between preoperative and 1 week after surgery ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the operation and the last follow-up ( P>0.05). At the last follow-up, all the 12 patients achieved gradeⅠ fusion. SI was 2.4±0.8 cm before operation, 1.0±0.6 cm at 1 week after operation, and 0.7±0.5 cm at last follow-up, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=38.30, P<0.001). No pseudojoint formation, significant loss of correction Angle, or rupture of internal fixation relaxant occurred during the operation or during follow-up. Conclusion:O-arm combined with navigation-assisted steotomy and hemivertebra resection for the treatment of congenital cervicothoracic hemivertebra has the advantages of good orthopedic effect, reduced radiation exposure and fewer complications, and accurate pedicle screw implantation and hemivertebra resection.
