Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of short-segment fixation covering the fractured vertebrae via posterior intermuscular approach plus percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) through the outer upper edge of the base of the fractured vertebral pedicle in the treatment of osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fracture.Methods:A retrospective case series study was used to analyze the clinical data of 56 patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fracture admitted to Ningbo No.6 Hospital from January 2018 to February 2021, including 24 males and 32 females; aged 56-72 years [(63.5±4.6)years]. All patients underwent short-segment fixation covering the fractured vertebrae via posterior intermuscular approach combined with PKP through the outer upper edge of the base of the fractured vertebral pedicle. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization day and surgery-related complications were recorded. The visual analogue score (VAS) of back pain, ratios of the anterior, middle and posterior height of the fractured vertebrae and kyphotic Cobb angle were compared before operation, at postoperative 2 days and at the final follow-up.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-28 months [(14.5±2.2)months]. The operation time was 55-85 minutes [(62.0±12.1)minutes], intraoperative blood loss was 80-150 ml [(94.0±18.5)ml], and hospitalization day was 5-9 days [(7.4±1.1)days]. Based on CT examination at postoperative 2 days, there were 2 patients with paravertebral cement leakage, 2 with intervertebral space leakage and 1 with intracanal leakage, but none reported associated clinical symptoms. No implant failure or fractures of adjacent segments was detected during the follow-up period. The VAS was significantly decreased from preoperative (7.5±1.2)points to (3.2±0.8)points at postoperative 2 days ( P<0.01), and the score was further lowered to (2.2±0.8)points at the final follow-up when compared with that at postoperative 2 days ( P<0.01). The ratios of the anterior, middle and posterior height of the fractured vertebrae and kyphotic Cobb angle were significantly improved at postoperative 2 days [(89.5±13.2)%, (85.8±7.9)%, (89.5±9.0)% and (5.6±3.2)°] when compared with those before operation [(48.9±11.8)%, (61.9±11.9)%, (79.9±9.8)% and (26.3±5.6)°] (all P<0.01). Slight losses were observed in the ratios of the anterior, middle and posterior height of the fractured vertebrae and kyphotic Cobb angle at the final follow-up [(87.0±12.7)%, (82.1±7.8)%, (88.6±10.0)% and (5.4±3.2)°], but not significantly different from those at postoperative 2 days (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Short-segment fixation covering the fractured vertebrae via posterior intermuscular approach plus PKP through the outer upper edge of the base of the fractured vertebral pedicle can safely and effectively treat osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fracture, for it can significantly improve back pain, restore the height of the fractured vertebrae and correct the kyphotic deformity.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of scalp nerve block combined with general anesthesia in optimizing anesthesia in the patients with moyamoya disease undergoing revascularization.Methods:A total of 154 patients with moyamoya disease, aged 18-64 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, undergoing elective revascularization, were divided into 2 groups ( n=77 each) using a random nunber table method: scalp nerve block combined with general anesthesia group (GN group) and general anaesthesia group (G group). Anesthesia was induced with intravenous midazolam 0.05 mg/kg, sufentanil 0.5-1.0 μg/kg, rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg and etomidate 0.2-0.3 mg/kg.After the patients were tracheally intubated after anesthesia induction, ipsilateral scalp nerve block (2 ml for supraorbital nerve block, 2 ml for supratrochlear nerve block; 3 ml for auriculotemporal nerve block, 3 ml for greater occipital nerve block, 3 ml for less occipital nerve block) was performed with 0.5% ropivacaine in GN group.The equal volume of normal saline was locally injected in G group.Anesthesia was maintained by inhalation of sevoflurane and intravenous infusion of remifentanil 0.05-0.10 μg·kg -1·min -1 and cisatracurium 0.1 mg·kg -1·h -1.The consumption of intraoperative remifentanil, requirement for postoperative rescue analgesia, nausea and vomiting, length of postoperative hospital stay, and early neurological complications were recorded.The modified Rankin Scale scores were evaluated before operation, at discharge and at 6 months after operation. Results:Compared with G group, the consumption of intraoperative remifentanil and requirement for postoperative rescue analgesia were significantly decreased ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, incidence of neurological complications, length of postoperative hospital stay, and modified Rankin Scale scores at each time point in GN group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Scalp nerve block combined with general anesthesia can increase the perioperative analgesic efficacy and is helpful in achieving a low-opioid anesthesia mode when used in the patients with moyamoya disease undergoing revascularization.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of postural reduction combined with miniincision screw-rod system and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in treating osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures.Methods A retrospective case series study was performed for data of 35 patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures without neurological deficits undergone mini-incision screw-rod system fixation and PKP between January 2012 and January 2014.There were 14 males and 21 females,with a mean age of 63.2 years (range,50-72 years).Operation time,intraoperative blood loss,complications,visual analogue score (VAS),height of fractured vertebrae and kyphosis Cobb angle were recorded.Results Operation time was (49.6 ± 6.8) min,and intraoperative blood loss was (45.6 ±7.8)ml.All patients were followed up for 9-18 months (mean,13.5 months).No intraoperative or postoperative serious complications occurred,including intracanal cement leakage,breakage or loosening of the screws.VAS of back pain was decreased from (8.4 ± 1.1)points preoperatively to (3.5 ± 0.6)points postoperatively (P ＜ 0.05).Height of the fractured vertebrae was improved from (49.62％ ± 5.68)％ preoperatively to (86.64 ± 6.63) ％ postoperatively (P ＜ 0.05).Kyphosis Cobb angle was improved from (28.12 ± 1.06) °preoperatively to (5.15 ± 1.08) °postoperatively (P ＜0.05).At the final follow-up,VAS was further decrease and vertebral height and Cobb’ s showed a slight loss of correction.Conclusion Postural reduction combined with mini-incision screw-rod system and PKP can relieve back pain,restore the height of injured vertebrae,correct kyphotic deformity and reduce operation time and blood loss,indicating a minimally invasive,safe and effective procedure for treatment of osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures.

Objective To investigate the optimal trajectory of posterior occipital condyle screw fixation via radiological and anatomical study.Methods Twelve adult craniocervical junction complete specimens were selected.The length,width and height of occipital condyle and the inclination angle of the longest axis were measured by CT scanning and reconstruction.Subsequently,occipital condyle screws were inserted with reference to CT measurements.After screw fixation,accuracy and safety of the placement of occipital condyle screw were verified by gross observation and CT scanning.Results Preoperative measurements of height and width of the occipital condyles indicated the placement of 4.0 mm bicortical screws was secure.Left vertebral artery horizontal sections of 2 specimens were slightly pressed without damage.CT scanning identified no damage to the inner or outer wall of the occipital condyle and the hypoglossal canal.Trajectory parameters between the right and left sides were slightly different,but no significant difference was observed (P ＞ 0.05).Average screw channel length and inclination angle were (20.8 ±2.6)mm and (37.1 ± 4.7)°respectively.Angle between screw and skull base tangent was observed as (8.5 ± 1.7) °.Distance between screw axis and hypoglossal canal was observed as (3.1 ± 1.1) mm.And the distance averaged (4.6 ± 1.4) mm between occipital condyle screw entry point and skull base and (6.1 ± 1.5) mm between entry point and inside edge of the occipital condyle.Conclusion Occipital condyle can be used as a new alternative fixed point in occipitocervical fusion.
