ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of remote injection device assisted percutaneous vertebroplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.Methods:Using retrospective research and analysis methods, 168 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures admitted to Heze Municipal Hospital from September 2019 to August 2020 were selected. A total of 139 cases were followed up, with a follow-up rate of 82.7%, including 22 males and 117 females, with an average age of 74.17 years. According to the different equipment used, they were divided into two groups. Seventy-two cases used remote injection device to assist percutaneous vertebroplasty (observation group), 67 cases used traditional puncture needle puncture percutaneous vertebroplasty (control group). All patients were completed follow-up at 3 months after surgery. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, bone cement injection volume, bone cement leakage rate, VAS score and ODI score of 1 day, 1 month and 3 months after operation were observed. Measurement data were expressed as ( Mean± SD), using t test, counting data were expressed as percentage [ n(%)], using χ2 test. Results:Both groups of patients successfully completed the operation without complications such as paraplegia, pulmonary embolism, or infection. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in operation time of two groups[(47.71±6.05) min vs (47.61±5.66) min, t=0.100, P=0.920]. The intraoperative blood loss of the two groups was no statistically significant difference [(7.08±3.00) mL vs (8.06±3.48) mL, t=1.782, P=0.079]. The difference between two groups of the amount of bone cement injected was statistically significant, [(6.44±1.03) mL vs (5.73±1.41) mL, t=3.369, P=0.001]. The bone cement leakage rate of the observation group was 27.78% (19/72), and the control group was 43.28% (29/67), and there was statistically significant( χ2=4.382, P=0.036). The preoperative VAS score of the observation group was (6.75±1.14) , and the control group was (6.64±1.08), and there was no significant difference between two groups( t=0.583, P=0.561) The VAS scores of the observation group and the control group were (1.28±0.75) and (1.21±0.77) respectively at 1 day after surgery. There was no statistically significant difference between two groups( t=0.583, P=0.588). The VAS scores of the observation group and the control group were (0.89±0.76) and (1.09±0.67) respectively at 1 month after operation. There was no statistically significant difference between two groups( t=1.641, P=0.103). The VAS scores of the observation group and the control group were (0.74±0.63) and (0.87±0.74) respectively at 3 months after operation. There was no statistically significant difference between two groups( t=1.118, P=0.266). The preoperative ODI scores of the observation group and the control group were (60.32±7.46) and (61.96±9.76) respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference between two groups( t=1.121, P=0.264). The ODI scores of the observation group and the control group were (14.93±6.01) and (15.10±6.43) respectively at 1 day after operation, there was no statistically significant difference between two groups( t=0.161, P=0.872). The ODI scores of the observation group and the control group were (10.54±4.24) and (11.31±3.71) respectively at 1 month after operation, and there was no statistically significant difference between two groups( t=1.136, P=0.258). The ODI scores of the observation group and the control group were (10.64±3.70) and (10.39±3.74) respectively at 3 months after operation, and there was no statistically significant difference between two groups( t=0.396, P=0.693). Conclusion:Compared with traditional puncture needle puncture percutaneous vertebroplasty, the remote injection device assisted percutaneous vertebroplasty has a definite clinical effect in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures, and the bone cement leakage rate is low.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:In traditional single open door surgery for cervical spondylosis, door shaft fixation such as suture suspension was used to maintain the open status of vertebral plate, but the fixation effect was not ideal. OBJECTIVE:To probe into the clinical application of Neulen titanium plate instrument and open-door bone grafting in patients with different types of cervical spondylosis. METHODS: A total of 32 patients were treated with Neulen titanium plate instrument and open-door bone grafting in unilateral open-door laminoplasty. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 32 patients with cervical spondylosis were folowed up for at least 6 months. Neurological function of these patients improved significantly. JOA score improved from (8.7±3.6) to (14.6±2.4), with an improvement rate of (63.3±8.9)% (P < 0.05). In folow-up at 6 months after treatment, X-ray and CT revealed that pivot side crack had disappeared, and spinal canal expansion was satisfactory. No loose, breakage, displacement or re-closing appeared. Results suggested that Neulen titanium plate fixation or open-door side bone grafting could maintain opening state in treatment using cervical posterior single door. Fusion rate of bone graft surrounding titanium plate was 78%. Fork design of both sides of titanium plate made less screws achieve high biomechanical stability. Titanium plate fixation obtained rigid support, but not elastic fixation on the door open side, obtained immediate stability of door shaft side, and easily resulted in bone fusion.
