The periodic failure of pedicle screw insertion and anatomical variations make the search for an alternative to pedicle screws in thoracic spine surgery necessary. The interlaminar crossed screws is a well-known and secure method for fusion in cervical spine, and in thoracic spine there used to be insufficient clinical data to support this technique, until now. We demonstrate in an initial series of 10 cases treated with interlaminar fusion in association of other fusion techniques in the thoracic spine with good results. Objective: Intralaminar screws have been shown to be a biomechanical salvage technique in the thoracic spine, especially in long cervicothoracic, thoracic and thoracolumbar fixation. The goals of this article are to demonstrate our initial experience and the range of indications for thoracic crossed intralaminar screws. Methods: In this article we describe our initial series performed at São Teotónio Hospital in Viseu, Portugal, and our results, and also provide a comprehensive review of the recent literature in the use of intralaminar crossed fixation.展开更多
目的:评估双侧经寰枢关节螺钉寰椎椎板钩固定植骨融合治疗可复性寰枢椎脱位的中长期疗效。方法:回顾性分析85例在我院接受双侧经寰枢关节螺钉寰椎椎板钩固定植骨融合术的可复性寰枢椎脱位患者的临床资料,其中男21例,女64例;年龄25~65岁(...目的:评估双侧经寰枢关节螺钉寰椎椎板钩固定植骨融合治疗可复性寰枢椎脱位的中长期疗效。方法:回顾性分析85例在我院接受双侧经寰枢关节螺钉寰椎椎板钩固定植骨融合术的可复性寰枢椎脱位患者的临床资料,其中男21例,女64例;年龄25~65岁(44±9.4岁)。寰椎爆裂性骨折19例,C1、2旋转脱位畸形16例,齿状突骨折26例,齿状突游离15例,寰椎类风湿性关节炎致寰枢椎脱位9例。通过Ranawat分级、颈椎功能障碍指数(NDI)以及颈部/枕骨下疼痛视觉模拟量表(visual analogue scale,VAS)评分评估患者的临床疗效;在术前和末次随访时的颈椎正侧位X线片、MRI、CT三维重建等资料中,提取以下影像学数据:寰齿前间距(atlanto-dental interval,ADI)、有效椎管容积(space available for cord,SAC)、C1-2角、C2-7角,并观察植骨融合情况及颈椎稳定性。结果:所有患者均完成5年以上的随访。末次随访时24例术前存在脊髓压迫症状患者的Ranawat分级有所改善;95%的患者颈部疼痛得到缓解,VAS评分由术前7.56±1.03分下降至2.53±0.53分(P<0.05);NDI由术前34.76±5.45分降至13.13±1.21分(P<0.05)。ADI由术前6.5±1.0mm降至2.4±0.9mm(P<0.05);SAC由术前13.37±2.11mm增大至19.93±2.20mm(P<0.05)。手术前C1-2角为21.9°±1.2°,末次随访时为26.6°±6.9°;手术前C2-7角为19.8°±9.2°,末次随访时为15.5°±5.9°。术后6个月,81例(95.3%)患者获得良好的植骨融合,4例患者出现植骨延迟愈合。结论:双侧经寰枢关节螺钉寰椎椎板钩固定植骨融合治疗可复性寰枢椎脱位的长期疗效优良,是一种安全、可靠的后路寰枢椎固定融合技术。展开更多
