BACKGROUND:The posterior lumbar interbody fusion is one of the effective methods for the treatment of lumbar and sacral spine diseases. Most surgeons fix the cage by compressing the disc space in order to keep stability and prevent dislodgement. However, some surgeons think that the non-compression technique does favor for increasing of the disc and foraminal height and thus improving the clinical outcomes, and does not increase the risk of fusion shift.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects in fixing the cage by the compression and non-compression techniques on posterior lumbar interbody fusion.
METHODS:Data of 64 patients with single-segment lumbar degeneration undergoing posterior lumbar interbody fusion between August 2009 and June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Fusion device was fixed according to compression of intervertebral space. These patients were divided into compression group (n=30) and non-compression group (n=34).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Curative effects:Lumbar and leg pain visual analogue score,
Oswestry disability index, SF-36 score and the height of intervertebral space, intervertebral foramen height and lumbar lordosis were significantly improved postoperatively in each group compared with preoperatively (P<0.05). The intervertebral space, intervertebral foramen height and lumbar lordosis were significantly better in the non-compression group than in the compression group (P<0.05). (2) Lumbar fusion rate:No significant difference in lumbar fusion rate was detected 6 and 12 months after surgery and during final fol ow-up (P>0.05). (3) Correlation analysis:The increase of the intervertebral space and the height of the intervertebral foramen were not significantly correlated with the improvement of the clinical curative effect (P>0.05). (4) Test results demonstrated that outcomes of the compression technique to fix the cage are equivalent to the non-compression in posterior lumbar interbody fusion. Non-compression is advantageous to increase the intervertebral space and the height of the intervertebral foramen. Both of them are conducive to the recovery of lumbar lordosis, but are not correlated with the increase in clinical curative effect.

BACKGROUND:Posterior cervical open-door expansive laminoplasty is one of the simple and effective methods to treat cervical spinal diseases, has satisfactory results but low complications. However, the imbalance of sagittal plan, loss of lordosis or axial pain is often reported recently. OBJECTVE:To analyze the correlation between cervical sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes after laminoplasty. METHODS:Between January 2011 and June 2015, 122 cases of cervical spinal disease, who were treated with open-door expansive laminoplasty with mini-titanium plate, were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical outcomes were evaluated by Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale. Radiographic results were assessed by C2-7 Cobb angle, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis and C7 slope. The correlation between sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Al patients were fol owed up for 7-32 months. (2) Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale scores were improved in the final fol ow-up (al P<0.001). No significant difference in upper limb Visual Analogue Scale scores was determined (P=0.142). In the final fol ow-up, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis increased (P=0.036), but neither the C2-7 Cobb angle nor the C7 slope significantly changed (P=0.092, P=0.184). (3) There were no correlations between sagittal alignment parameters (C2-7 Cobb angle, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis and C7 slope) and clinical outcomes (Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale) (al P>0.05). (4) These findings indicated that posterior cervical open-door expansive laminoplasty with mini-titanium plate can significantly improve the neurological function of patients. However, there is no correlation between cervical sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of aerosol inhalation of ambroxol combined with gentamicin on postopera-tive related indexes of esophageal cancer patients. METHODS:60 patients underwent esophageal cancer operation were retrospec-tive analyzed and divided into control group(30 cases)and observation group(30 cases)according to drug use. Three days before surgery,control group was given 5% Glucose injection 250 mL intravenously,twice a day;observation group was given Ambrox-ol hydrochloride injection 50 mL added into 5% Glucose injection 250 mL intravenously,twice a day. After operation,both groups were given anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs. Control group was additionally given aerosol inhalation of Gentamicin sulfate in-jection 80000 units added into 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 20 mL,4 times a day. Observation group was additionally given aerosol inhalation of Ambroxol hydrochloride injection 10 mL added into 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 20 mL,4 times a day, on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 5 days. The occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications were compared between 2 groups. The levels of CRP,TNF-α,PaO2,SaO2,oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2),the occurrence of ADR were observed before and after operation. RESULTS:The total incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in observation group was significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before operation,there was no statistical significance in the levels of CRP,TNF-α,PaO2,SaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 between 2 groups(P>0.05). After operation,the levels of CRP and TNF-α in 2 groups were significantly lower than before operation;the observation group was significantly lower than the control group. PaO2,SaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 of 2 groups were sig-nificantly higher than before operation;the observation group was significantly higher than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2groups during medication. CONCLUSIONS:The aerosol inhalation of ambroxol combined with gentamicin can reduce postopera-tive inflammatory factors of esophageal cancer patients,and promotes the recovery of respiratory function without increasing the in-cidence of ADR.
