ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the feasibility,safety and therapeutic effects of minimally invasive percutaneous mono-segment pedicle instrumentation in treating thoracolumbar burst fractures ( AO classification:A 3.1 and A 3.2 ).Methods Twenty-four inpatients with thoracolumbar burst fractures (AO classification:A 3.1 and A 3.2) treated with percutaneous mono-segment pedicle instrumentation from March 2010 to December 2010 were retrospectively studied.The operation time,blood loss,pre-and post-operative visual analogue scale ( VAS),ratio of anterior height between compressed vertebral body and normal vertebral body and vertebral kyphotic Cobb' s angle were evaluated.Results The operation lasted for (90 ± 25) minutes,with intraoperative blood loss of (20 ± 10) ml.The rate of anterior body height rose from pre-operative (56.5 ± 10.1 ) to (92.3 ± 12.2) one week post-operatively and to (90.2 ± 11.l)at the follow-up one year later.The vertebral kyphotic Cobb' s angle was pre-operative ( 16.5 ± 5.2) °,which was reduced to ( 7.3 ± 2.4 )° at oneweek after surgery and ( 7.9 ± 3.5 )° at the follow-up one year later respectively.The VAS scored ( 7.0 ± 1.2) points before surgery,( 1.2 ±0.7) points at one week after surgery and ( 1.1 ± 6..5) points at the follow-up one year later.The ratio of anterior body height at one week after surgery and at the follow-up one year later were both obviously higher than that before surgery (P < 0.05 ),but the ratio one week postoperatively showed no significant difference in comparison with that one year postoperatively (P >0.05).The kyphotic Cobb' s angle had significant decrease at one week after surgery and at the follow-up one year later,as compared with that before operation (P <0.0 5).Also,the VAS score showed marked improvement at one week after surgery and at the follow-up one year later.Conclusions Minimally invasive percutaneous mono-segmental pedicle instrumentation is effective and safe for thoracolumbar burst fractures (AO classification:A 3.1and A 3.2),but it is not suitable for thoracolumbar burst fracture with severely compressed vertebra.
