CLINICAL COMPARISION OF THE TREATMENT OF CERVICAL PROLAPSE OF INTERVERTEBRAL DISC BY USING CAGE OR TITANIUM PLATE / 药物分析学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the clinical effects of treating cervical prolapse of intervertebral disc by using Solis cage, titanium cage and autogenous iliac crest graft (AICG) combined with titanium plate. Methods 64 cases of cervical prolapse of intervertebral disc were analyzed retrospectively. All the patients were followed up for about one year. Group A is composed of 20 patients (30 intervertebral spaces) treated with microdiscectomy and Solis cage fusion;group B is composed of 21 patients(22 intervertebral spaces) treated with titanium cage and group C is involved of 23patients(28 intervertebral spaces) which were dealt with AICG combined with titanium plate. The differences in the to-tal X ray exposure time, time working on iliac bone, incidence of complications, fusion rate, incidence of JOA score recovery rate more than 50 % and rehabilitation time of the three groups are analyzed. Results All indexes from group A and B were more satisfactory than those from group C (P＜0. 05). The statistic analysis results of the incidence of complications of cervical part, rehabilitation time in group A are 5.0± 1.8, 5.1 ± 1.2; and that is 14.3±2.6, 7.5 ± 1.6and 26.1±6.2, 8.6±2.3 in group B and group C respectively. There is significant difference between group A and group B on the incidence of complications of cervical part and rehabilitation time (P＜0.05). Results of the incidence of JOA score recovery rate ＞ 50 % in group A(95.8 ± 3.2) was more satisfactory than that in group B(93.6 ± 2.9),while there was no statistical difference between group A and group B (P＞0.05). Conclusion The Solis cage is better in treating the cervical prolapse of intervertebral disc than other ways. Also, it makes the operation easier, rehabilitation time shorter, and it causes fewer complications.
