自锁式零切迹椎间融合器治疗多节段颈椎病及其中长期随访

Clinical Analysis as Well as Mid-Term and Long-Term Follow-Up Results of Self-Locking and Zero-Profile Interbody Fusion Cage for the Treatment of Multi-Segmental Cervical Spondylosis

  • 摘要: 目的: 探讨自锁式零切迹椎间融合器治疗多节段颈椎病的可行性及中长期临床疗效。 方法: 选择2010年10月—2013年4月接受前路椎间盘切除,新融合器植骨,处理至少3个节段的多节段颈椎病患者34例,采用日本骨科学会(Japanese Orthopedic Association,JOA)评分及颈椎功能障碍指数(neck disability index,NDI)评价患者术前、术后3个月、术后12个月及末次随访时神经及颈椎功能恢复情况;X线评价各时点颈椎前凸角恢复、颈椎间隙高度恢复情况,并与术前相比较;三维CT评价术后6个月、12个月植骨融合情况;Odom评价体系评价术后患者满意度情况。 结果: 患者随访18~30个月,平均24.3个月。患者术后3个月,术后12个月及末次随访时JOA评分、NDI评分与术前比较差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05);术后各时点X线提示颈椎整体前凸角、椎间隙高度均较术前改善(P<0.05),且随访期间维持良好。术后6个月CT显示确切融合率为62.4%,总融合率85.1%;术后12个月确切融合率为93.1%,总融合率100%。优良率为88.2%(30/34)。 结论: 颈椎自锁式零切迹椎间融合器可应用于多节段颈椎前路减压植骨融合术中,能有效维持颈椎大范围减压后的整体曲度及椎间隙高度,保证植骨融合的成功,临床疗效满意。

     

    Abstract: Objective: To explore the feasibility as well as mid-term and long-term clinical efficacy of self-locking and zero-profile cage for the treatment of multi-segmental cervical spondylosis. Methods: A total of 34 patients with cervical spondylosis, who received anterior cervical discectomy and fusion(ACDF) with new fusion cage for at least three segments during Oct. 2010 and Apr. 2013, were enrolled.The neural and cervical function was evaluated with Japanese Orthopedic Association(JOA) scores and neck disability index(NDI) before surgery, 3 months after surgery, 12 months after surgery and at the last follow-up.Meanwhile,the cervical curvature and intervertebral height were evaluated by X-ray at each time point and then compared with that before surgery.And the condition of cervical fusion was assessed by three-dimensional computed tomography scan. Furthermore, dom evaluation system was used to evaluate patients′ satisfaction after operation. Results: The follow-up averaged 24.3 months (range 18-30 months).There were significant differences between the JOA and NDI scores at the 3rd,12th month after operation and the last follow-up and that at preoperative point(P<0.05).The angles of cervical curvature and intervertebral height were improved postoperatively (P<0.05) and maintained throughout the follow-up.CT scan demonstrated that the precise fusion rate and the total fusion rate were 62.4% and 85.1% respectively at the 6th month after operation. And the precise fusion rate, the total fusion rate, the excellent and good rate were 93.1%, 100%, and 88.2%(30/34), respectively, at the 12th month after operation. Conclusions: The self-locking and zero-profile cervical cage could be applied in multi-segmental ACDF. It could maintain the cervical curvature as well as the intervertebral height after wide rage decompression, and assure the success of fusion as well as the satisfactory outcome.
