Secuplate颈前路钢板系统在脊髓型颈椎病手术中的应用

Anterior decompression and fusion with the Secuplate for cervical spondylotic myelopathy

目的观察Secuplate颈前路钢板在脊髓型颈椎病手术中的作用和疗效。方法对26例脊髓型颈椎病患者行颈前路减压植骨、Secuplate颈前路钢板内固定术。术后随访观察神经功能恢复情况、植骨融合率及有无植入物并发症。结果术后进行6～12个月(平均8个月)随访。术后症状明显缓解、脊髓功能明显改善者23例,占88%。术后6个月植骨融合率达到100%。无钢板和螺钉松动或断裂现象存在。结论应用颈前路减压植骨、Secuplate颈前路钢板系统内固定术治疗脊髓型颈椎病具有以下优点:可获得术后颈椎即刻稳定,防止植骨块移位,术后无需行石膏固定,能显著提高植骨融合率。

Objective To evaluate the results of the Secuplate anterior cervical osteosynthesis plate (SACOP) for the treatment of patient with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). Methods Twenty six patients with CSM underwent anterior decompression fusion and internal fixation with SACOP were reviewed. All patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months (mean, 8 months). Results Neurological deficits improved in 23 of 26 patients after operation. A stable bony fusion according to radiological criteria was achieved in all cases 6 months postoperatively. There was no implants breakage and loosening. Conclusion Intervertebral fusion and internal fixation with SACOP after anterior decompression can offer immediate stability, prevent graft dislodgement, avoid cast immobilization and give a high rate of successful bony fusion for the patient with CSM.
