This clinical study was undertaken to analyze surgical approaches, manner of tumor resection and postoperative management. Methods Thirty-four patients underwent microsurgical excision of tumors lateroventral and ventral to the high cervical spinal cord by means of three approaches. The tumors comprised mostly Schwannoma and meningioma (88.24%, 30/34) in this group. Tumor volume varied from 3.0 cm×2.5 cm×2.0 cm to 12 cm×3.0 cm×2.5 cm. Of the 34 patients, 4 had dumbbell-shaped tumors growing outside the spinal canal and 7 tumors growing into the intracranium. Results The tumor was totally removed in 32 patients (94.1%). Follow-up for 7 months to 6.4 years (median 3.6 years) showed a recovery of a normal life or work ability in 30 (83.3%) patients. Conclusion Modified operative approaches and microsurgical techniques can raise the rate of total tumor removal and reduce the disability of patients.展开更多
目的观察脊髓型颈椎病患者接受颈前路椎间盘切除减压植骨融合术(anterior cervical discectomy and fusion,ACDF)术后的颈长肌和颈伸肌变化情况,并分析颈长肌和颈伸肌的术后变化与ACDF手术疗效的相关性。方法以该科2016年6月~2021年6月...目的观察脊髓型颈椎病患者接受颈前路椎间盘切除减压植骨融合术(anterior cervical discectomy and fusion,ACDF)术后的颈长肌和颈伸肌变化情况,并分析颈长肌和颈伸肌的术后变化与ACDF手术疗效的相关性。方法以该科2016年6月~2021年6月开展单节段ACDF手术的62例脊髓型颈椎病患者作为研究对象,分别于术前、术后3个月、术后1年和末次随访时,进行VAS评分、mJOA评分和NDI指数等疗效指标评价;同时,采用颈椎MRI T2加权像检查并测量其颈长肌和颈伸肌的横截面积(cross section area,CSA),颈长肌的最长径/最短径比值(ratio of long and short lines,RLS)以及颈长肌和颈伸肌的容积。采用Pearson相关性系数对颈长肌和颈伸肌容积与上述疗效指标进行相关性分析。结果62例患者均成功完成单节段ACDF手术且获访24~30个月、平均25.9个月。与术前相比,患者术后3个月、1年和末次随访时的颈肩痛VAS评分、mJOA评分和NDI指数均显著改善(P<0.05)。末次随访时采用Odom标准评价,优38例,良22例,可2例。与术前相比,所有患者术后3个月、1年和末次随访时的颈长肌CSA和颈长肌容积均显著减少(P<0.05),术后3个月、1年和末次随访时的颈长肌RLS均显著增加(P<0.05);颈伸肌CSA和颈伸肌容积在手术前和术后各时间的变化无显著性差异(P>0.05)。经Pearson相关性分析显示,术后3个月、术后1年和末次随访的颈长肌容积与同时期的VAS评分和NDI指数均呈负相关性(P<0.05),与mJOA评分无明确相关性(P>0.05);而颈伸肌容积与同时期的VAS评分、NDI指数和mJOA评分均无明确的相关性(P>0.05)。结论脊髓型颈椎病患者行ACDF手术后,颈长肌可出现一定程度退变,颈伸肌的退变并不显著。颈长肌的退变可对手术预后产生不利影响。展开更多
