Objective To explore the surgical feasibility and clinical efficacy of one-stage anterior-posterior approaches in treatment of severe fracture and dislocation of lower cervical spine in "beach chair position".Methods Sixteen male cases of severe fracture and dislocation of lower cervical spine and with a mean age of 49.8 years (range,36-78 years) treated surgically from May 2012 to May 2016 were analyzed retrospectively by using case series study.The segment of injury was C4-5 in 4 cases,C5-6 in 7 and C6-7 in 5.The degree of spinal cord injury according to the American Spine injury Association (ASIA) score was Grade A in 4 cases,Grade B in 7 and Grade C in 5.Sub-axial injury classification (SLIC) score was 8 points in 9 cases and 9 points in 7.After a general anesthesia,a ring with a hole was hanged on patient's head before the operation.Then,under the protection of hole traction,the upper of operating bed was swung up slowly,so that the patient was restricted in vertical "beach chair position" with traction on the halo in order to immobilize the head and partially reduce the kyphotic deformity.Routine cervical anterior-posterior approach was done with the exposure of damaged section of the front and rear structure.Pedicle screw system or lateral mass screw displacement was conducted.Anterior intervertebral discectomy or fracture vertebral was performed,using collaborative reset prying method before and after the road.In the front of intervertebral cage or titanium net support bone graft,rear pedicle screws or lateral mass screws fixation and bone graft fusion were implemented.The operation time and blood loss were recorded.The healing of the wound was observed.The recovery of neurological function was evaluated according to the ASIA grade.Postoperative review X-ray,CT and MRI were done to evaluate the reset and bone graft in position and fusion.Results All the surgeries were done well without aeroembolism and other related complications.The mean operative time was 153 minutes (range,150-180 minutes),and the mean amount of blood loss was 543 ml (range,400-800 ml).Sixteen cases were followed-up from 6 to 24 months (mean 13.7 months).All the incision were healed at Ⅰ stage.Spinal cord function did not aggravate.The ASIA grade was improved with an average of one to two Grades 6 months after surgery.Postoperative X-ray and CT confirmed that graft object position was favorable and cervical sequence was recovered well.The Cobb angle decreased from (23.6 ± 5.3) ° preoperatively to (4.0 ± 0.4)°postoperatively,and the translational displacement of vertebral body was restored into (2.7 ±0.4) mm (P ＜ 0.01) from (10.9 ± 1.6) mm before operation.The cervical spinal canal was not obstructed and the cervical spinal cord was relieved,showed by MRI.Conclusions One-stage anterior-posterior approaches for severe fracture and dislocation of lower cervical spine circumferential reconstruction in "beach chair position" is a beneficial and effective method,without the need of changing positions in a collaborative reduction and fixation.The method can reduce the interference of spinal cord,shorten the operation time and save anterior extra fixation.

OBJECTIVE:To discuss the solution of therapeutic contradictions of bleeding and hemostasis in pulmonary embo-lism patients receiving warfarin anticoagulation. METHODS:The risk evaluation and dissolution of bleeding and embolism induced by warfarin anticoagulation were summarized by analyzing therapeutic duration of INR abnormal elevation in a pulmonary embo-lism patient receiving warfarin anticoagulation. Case analysis was based on foreign and domestic guideline and information. RE-SULTS:Referring to INR value,based on HAS-BLE,Caprini scale,China Expert Consensus on Anticoagulant Therapy of Warfa-rin,China Expert Suggestions on Prevention of Venous Thrombosis in Internal Inpatients and Guidelines of Prevention of VTE in Nonsurgical Patients of American College of Chest Physicians,clinical pharmacists and physicians adjusted the dose of Warfarin tablet timely. The patient was recovered after symptomatic treatment of anticoagulation,relieving cough and asthma,reducing phlegm,etc.,and then disagreed from hospital with drugs. CONCLUSIONS:The risk of bleeding and embolism for this type pa-tients can be evaluated and resolved on the basis of HAS-BLED,Caprini scale and relevant guidelines. At present,there still are some problems as deficient evaluation method,lack of large-scale high-level evidence and quantitative study. It is needed to carry out multiple center clinical study and drug interaction quantitative study actively,and develop suitable risk evaluation method so as to provide high-quality and valuable decision-making evidence.
