RESUMO
This article describes the etiology, clinical presentation, surgical management, and outcomes for treatment of the failed first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint arthroplasty. Failure following implant arthroplasty typically creates large osseous deficits and surgical management can be difficult. Salvage arthrodesis provides reliable joint stability while maintaining hallux length. Outcomes following conversion of a failed MTP joint arthroplasty to MTP joint arthrodesis have demonstrated consistent pain relief and high satisfaction: however, high rates of complication and nonunion have been reported. Bone graft may be necessary to fill large voids in the joint. Other revision options for failed arthroplasty have been described, but outcomes remain inconsistent and varied. Ultimately, conversion to MTP joint arthrodesis is the recommended intervention for treatment of the failed MTP arthroplasty implant, providing sufficient stability and pain relief.

BACKGROUND This retrospective study included 31 patients from 2 centers in Türkiye with posttraumatic ankle osteoarthritis treated with anterior tibiotalar arthrodesis using an anterior plate and cannulated screw fixation, with 6 months of follow-up. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this bi-center study, conducted between January 2018 and July 2022, we retrospectively reviewed the digital records of 31 patients with end-stage posttraumatic ankle osteoarthritis who were treated with anterior tibiotalar arthrodesis surgery using 2 or 3 cannulated screws and the anterior plating technique. Data on age, gender, comorbidities, and smoking were recorded, as were operative technique and graft use. Union characteristics, complications, visual analog scale (VAS) results, and Maryland functional scoring were assessed preoperatively and at the 6-month follow-up visit. RESULTS The mean age of the 31 (n=13 male, n=18 female) patients was 55.5 (19-82) years. The union findings were good in 26 (83.9%) of the patients and late in 3 (9.7%) of them. Nonunion was seen in 2 (6.5%) patients. Complications were observed in 7 (22.6%) patients. Union formation was statistically significantly prolonged among the cases with complications (P=0.002). The smoking rate was significantly higher in patients encountering complications (P=0.001). Among cases with complications, the VAS and Maryland scores recorded in the postoperative sixth month were significantly higher (P=0.027, P=0.018, respectively). The mean union time was 13.5±6.5 weeks among all of the patients. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that cannulated screw fixation, strengthened with the common and easy-to-supply anterior reconstruction plating technique, had high fixation power and good functional results in patients with end-stage posttraumatic ankle osteoarthritis.

PURPOSE: We aimed to report the early results of performing acute ankle arthrodesis using a modified retrograde femoral intramedullary locking IMN concomitant with plating at the same setting for managing diabetic patients' acute ankle fractures. METHODS: We prospectively included patients who presented acutely with ankle fractures, where hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) on admission was > 7%, and the Adelaide Fracture in the Diabetic Ankle (AFDA) algorithm score was 5 or above. All patients were treated by acute ankle arthrodesis using a modified retrograde femoral IMN combined with lateral plating. Functional assessment was reported according to a modified American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle hindfoot scale (AOFAS), and complications were documented. RESULTS: Six patients had an average age of 55.7 years (37-65). The average HbA1C on admission was 7.9 (7.3-9), and the average AFDA score was 7.3 (6-8). The average operative time was 79.2 min (70-90). All patients, except for one, achieved union at the arthrodesis site after an average of 10.3 weeks (8-14). After an average last follow-up of 9 months (6-12), the average modified AOFAS was 73.2 (82 to 62); four patients had an excellent score and one good. Complications developed in two, one deep infection after 2 weeks treated by metal removal and Ilizarov, and the other patient developed a stress fracture at the tibial end of the nail, which was treated by open reduction and internal fixation using a plate and screws. CONCLUSION: Using a modified femoral IMN combined with lateral plating is a promising technique to achieve ankle arthrodesis in diabetic patients with acute ankle fractures with acceptable outcomes; however, further studies with larger numbers are needed. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

BACKGROUND: Arthrodesis of finger joints is often the last line of treatment of severe pain due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or mallet finger. At the Department of Orthopedic and Hand Surgery, Örebro University Hospital (ÖUH) in Sweden, the Kirschner-wire technique was standard until 2020, when the headless compression screw technique was introduced as a complement. There is no consensus on which method is superior. The purpose of this study was to examine the outcomes and complications associated with distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint and thumb interphalangeal (IP) joint arthrodesis, and to see whether these correlated with patient-dependent and treatment-related factors. METHODS: In a retrospective cohort study, we evaluated a total of 149 consecutive arthrodeses (118 DIP joint and 31 thumb IP joint) performed between 2012 and 2022. The primary outcome was risk factors for complications after arthrodesis. RESULTS: Osteoarthritis was the most common indication (56%) for arthrodesis. The majority of the patients were females (74%), and the median age was 62 (range 18-86). The complication frequency was 35%, with infection being the most common (25%). Time to completed follow up was < 12 weeks in the majority of the cases (58%). There were no significant differences in complication rate between the 136 joints operated using Kirschner wire and the 13 joints operated using headless compression screws. There was no significant increased risk of complications among smokers or patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Diabetes and surgeon experience had a significant influence on the risk of complication (p = 0.036 and p = 0.006, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Osteoarthritis was the most common indication for arthrodesis and postoperative complications occurred at a rate similar to that reported in the existing literature. Diabetes and surgeon experience were identified as factors increasing the risk of postoperative complications in these DIP/thumb IP joint arthrodeses. However, there was no significant difference between the two techniques (Kirschner wire and headless compression screws) regarding complications. Further studies are needed in order to determine the optimal type of operation and choice of implant. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Researchweb CRIS #280,998, 26th of July 2023.

Background: First metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP-1) arthrodesis is a commonly performed procedure in the treatment of disorders of the great toe. Since the incidence of revision after MTP-1 joint arthrodesis is not insignificant, a medial approach with a medially positioned locking plate has been proposed as a new technique. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of the application of a lag screw on the stability and strength of first metatarsophalangeal joint arthrodesis with medial plate. Methods: The bending tests in a testing machine were performed for models of the first metatarsal bone and the proximal phalanx printed on a 3D printer from polylactide material. The bones were joined using the locking titanium plate and six locking screws. The specimens were divided into three groups of seven each: medial plate and no lag screw, medial plate with a lag screw, dorsal plate with a lag screw. The tests were carried out quasi-static until the samples failure. Results: The addition of the lag screw to the medial plate significantly increased flexural stiffness (41.45 N/mm vs 23.84 N/mm, p = 0.002), which was lower than that of the dorsal plate with a lag screw (81.29 N/mm, p < 0.001). The similar maximum force greater than 700 N (p > 0.50) and the relative bone displacements lower than 0.5 mm for a force of 50 N were obtained for all fixation techniques. Conclusions: The lag screw significantly increased the shear stiffness in particular and reduced relative transverse displacements to the level that should not delay the healing process for the full load of the MTP-1 joint arthrodesis with the medial plate. It is recommended to use the locking screws with a larger cross-sectional area of the head to minimize rotation of the medial plate relative to the metatarsal bone.

PURPOSE: Moderate-to-severe hallux rigidus is a debilitating pathology that is optimally treated with surgical intervention. Arthrodesis produces reliable clinical outcomes but is limited by restriction in 1st metatarsophalangeal joint range of motion. The advent of polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel (PVA) implants have produced early promise based on initial trials, but more recent studies have called into question the efficacy of this procedure. The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes following the use of PVA for hallux rigidus. METHODS: The MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane library databases were systematically reviewed using the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses guidelines. 18 studies were included. RESULTS: In total, 1349 patients (1367 feet) underwent PVA at a weighted mean follow-up of 24.1 ± 11.1 months. There were 168 patients (169 feet) included in the cheilectomy cohort and 322 patients (322 feet) included in the arthrodesis cohort. All 3 cohorts produced comparable improvements in subjective clinical outcomes. Postoperative imaging findings in the PVA cohort included joint space narrowing, peri-implant fluid, peri-implant edema and erosion of the proximal phalanx. The complication rate in the PVA cohort, cheilectomy cohort and arthrodesis cohort was 27.9%, 11.8% and 24.1%, respectively. The failure rates in the PVA cohort, cheilectomy cohort and arthrodesis cohort was 14.8%, 0.3% and 9.0%, respectively. CONCLUSION: This systematic review demonstrated that PVA produced a high complication rate (27.9%) together with concerning postoperative imaging findings at short-term follow-up. In addition, a moderate failure rate (14.8%) and secondary surgical procedure rate (9.5%) was noted for the PVA cohort. The findings of this review calls into question the efficacy and safety of PVA for the treatment of hallux rigidus. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to (1) evaluate the rates of postoperative complications following ankle or hindfoot arthrodesis among current smokeless tobacco users and people who smoke compared to matched controls, and (2) compare rates of postoperative complications in current smokeless tobacco users vs people who smoke tobacco cigarettes. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using a large national database. For patients who underwent ankle or hindfoot arthrodesis, smokeless tobacco users (n = 131) and people who smoke (n = 1948) were matched 1:4 with controls, and smokeless tobacco users (n = 131) were matched 1:4 with people who smoke tobacco cigarettes (n = 524). Orthopaedic complications within 90 days, 1 year, and 2 years were compared using multivariable logistic regressions. RESULTS: Within 90 days of ankle or hindfoot arthrodesis, smokeless tobacco users demonstrated significantly higher rates of hardware removal (odds ratio [OR] 5.01, 95% CI 1.65-15.20), wound disruption or dehiscence (OR 3.00, 95% CI 1.21-7.44), and pooled complications (16.0% vs 5.9%, OR 2.84, 95% CI 1.50-5.38) compared with tobacco-naïve controls. The rates of hardware removal, wound disruption and dehiscence, and pooled complications remained significant in the smokeless tobacco cohort at 1 and 2 years. At 2 years following ankle or hindfoot arthrodesis, smokeless tobacco users additionally demonstrated significantly higher rates of infection (OR 6.08, 95% CI 1.15-32.05) and nonunion (OR 2.35, 95% CI 1.31-4.20) compared with tobacco-naïve controls. Within 90 days of ankle or hindfoot arthrodesis, smokeless tobacco users demonstrated significantly lower rates of malunion or nonunion than patients who smoke tobacco cigarettes (OR 0.34, 95% CI 0.12-0.97), whereas all other complications were not significantly different. CONCLUSION: Smokeless tobacco use is associated with higher rates of complications following ankle or hindfoot arthrodesis compared with tobacco-naïve controls, and physicians should screen for smokeless tobacco use specifically and encourage cessation before operating electively. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective cohort study.

BACKGROUND: Total ankle replacements (TARs) have rapidly advanced in terms of volume, technique, design, and indications. However, TARs are still at risk for early mechanical failure and revision. Prior studies have investigated potential risk factors for failure, but have been limited to smaller series or older implants. This study sought to identify risk factors for early mechanical failure in modern TAR. METHODS: This is a retrospective study of a single-institution registry. Five surgeons contributed cases involving patients who underwent a primary TAR with any implant. Implants were grouped on the basis of the type of fixation. The primary outcome was early mechanical failure (revision with component removal for a non-infectious etiology, that is, subsidence, aseptic loosening, and/or malalignment). Logistic regression determined the effects of age, weight, hindfoot arthrodesis, implant type, and radiographic deformity on failure. RESULTS: The 731 included patients had a mean follow-up of 2.7 years. Ten percent (71 patients) had hindfoot arthrodesis. There were 33 mechanical failures (4.5%) at a mean of 1.7 years after the index surgical procedure. Our model demonstrated that hindfoot arthrodesis was associated with 2.7 times greater odds of failure (p = 0.045), every 10 kg of body weight increased the odds of tibial-sided failure by 1.29 times (p = 0.039), and implants with more extensive tibial fixation (stems or keels) lowered the odds of tibial failure by 95% (p = 0.031). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with uncontrollable risk factors (hindfoot arthrodesis) or risk factors that may or may not be modifiable by the patient (weight), implants with more robust tibial fixation may be able to reduce the risk of early mechanical failure. Further research is warranted to support efforts to decrease early failure in TAR. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level III .

INTRODUCTION: People with haemophilia (PWH) not administered primary haematological prophylaxis since childhood, that is, those treated haematologically on demand or not treated at all, often experience the degeneration of the ankles, leading to pain and functional impairment. AIM: To analyse the outcomes and complications of arthroscopic ankle surgery performed on PWH. METHODS: For this narrative review of the literature, a search was conducted in PubMed on 2, December 2023, using the keywords "haemophilia", "ankle" and "arthroscopy". Of the 29 articles identified, 15 specifically related to ankle arthroscopy in PWH were selected (inclusion criterion). The remaining articles did not meet this requirement (exclusion criterion) and were therefore eliminated. RESULTS: Arthroscopic procedures (arthroscopic synovectomy, debridement and arthrodesis of the ankle) are increasingly used in the surgical treatment of haemophilic ankle arthropathy. Although arthroscopic ankle surgery offers good outcomes in patients with haemophilia, the procedure is not free of complications, which range from 7.9% for arthroscopic ankle debridement to 13.1% in arthroscopic ankle synovectomy and 17.8% in arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis, respectively. The non-union rate of arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis is 7.1% (2/28). CONCLUSION: Although arthroscopic interventions in the haemophilic ankle (synovectomy, debridement, arthrodesis) offer good functional outcomes, they are associated with a non-negligible rate of complications. Arthroscopic ankle surgery in PWH is major surgery and should be treated as such.

As the number of primary total ankle replacements increases for treatment of end-stage ankle arthritis, failures are also expected to rise. Periprosthetic joint infection is among the causes of failures and has been reported to be as high as 5%. Diagnosis is usually made by a combination of clinical examination findings, imaging, laboratory, and microbiological workup. Management is generally separated into limb salvage or amputation. Limb salvage can be challenging and may involve a single versus staged approach. Options include revision arthroplasty or arthrodesis procedures (ankle versus tibiotalocalcaneal), and a multidisciplinary approach is sought to eradicate infection before definitive management.

STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective single-center study between January 2019 and January 2023. OBJECTIVE: The role and contribution of drainage in the anterior approach to the cervical spine (cervicotomy) is much debated, motivated primarily by the prevention of retropharyngeal hematoma, so are there still any benefits to drainage? BACKGROUND: The anterior approach to the cervical spine is a widespread and common procedure performed in almost all spine surgery departments for the replacement of cervical intervertebral discs and medullar or radicular decompression. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of symptomatic postoperative cervical hematoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Four hundred thirty-one patients who had undergone cervical spine surgery by anterior cervicotomy for cervicarthrosis or cervical disc herniation (anterior cervical discectomy and fusion and anterior cervical disc replacement) were consecutively included. Patients were separated into 2 groups: (1) Group A, 140 patients (with postoperative drainage) and (2) Group B, 291 patients (without drainage). RESULTS: The mean follow-up was 2.8 months. The 2 groups were comparable on all criteria, but there was a predominance of arthroplasty ( P < 0.0001), use of anticoagulants/antiaggregants ( P < 0.0001) and a greater number of stages ( P < 0.0001) in group A. There were a total of 4/431 symptomatic postoperative hematomas (0.92%) in this study. Two hematomas occurred in group A (2/140, 1.4%) and 2 in group B (2/291, 0.68%; P < 0.0001). One patient in group A (0.71%) required surgical drainage for cavity hematoma revealed by marked dyspnea, swallowing, and neurological disorders. One case of hematoma diagnosed by dysphonia and neurological deficit was reported in group B (0.34%; P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: The placement of a drain during anterior cervicotomy (anterior cervical discectomy and fusion/anterior cervical disc replacement) did not limit the occurrence of symptomatic postoperative hematoma.

No differences have been found between total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) and ankle arthrodesis (AA) with respect to patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), although both interventions were shown to improve PROMs with respect to the preoperative situation. That is, both interventions (AA and TAA) were effective in improving preoperative symptoms. On the other hand, 2-year complication rates were higher after AA (27%) than after TAA (16%); however, infection rates were similar (4%). The published revision rate after AA is 16% versus 11% after TAA. In short, TAA and AA appear to offer the same PROMs, but TAA has a lower rate of complications (except for infection) and revisions.

The debate between ankle arthrodesis and total ankle replacement for patients with end-stage arthritis of the ankle joint is an ongoing topic in orthopedic surgery. Ankle arthrodesis, or fusion, has been the traditional treatment for ankle arthritis. It involves fusing the bones of the ankle joint together, eliminating the joint and creating a solid bony union. Arthrodesis is effective in reducing pain in the ankle, but it results in a loss of ankle motion. This can increase the load on adjacent joints, such as the subtalar joint, which may lead to accelerated degeneration and arthritis in those joints over time.

Distal tibial autograft harvesting has been studied in the past, but morbidity at the level of the donor site is unclear. The purpose of this retrospective review is to assess morbidity in distal tibial autograft harvesting associated with foot and ankle arthrodesis procedures. A retrospective analysis was performed utilizing patients treated in the last 13 years at a large, multicenter, academic, tertiary referral, research institution. Included patients were between the ages of 18 and 80 years old. One-hundred and seven patients (39 male; 68 female) underwent ipsilateral distal tibial bone graft (n = 110) harvesting to augment the index procedure. Patients were followed for an average of 11.2 months after surgery (Range: 1-73 months). The incidence rate of distal tibial stress fractures was 4.5%, with an overall postoperative complication rate of 8.2%. Overall, low complication rates associated with distal tibial autograft harvesting were found, supporting the use of the distal tibia as an appropriate site for autograft harvesting in foot and ankle surgery.

PURPOSE: Ankle arthrodesis is a mainstay of surgical management for ankle arthritis. Accurately risk-stratifying patients who undergo ankle arthrodesis would be of great utility. There is a paucity of accurate prediction models that can be used to pre-operatively risk-stratify patients for ankle arthrodesis. We aim to develop a predictive model for major perioperative complication or readmission after ankle arthrodesis. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study of adult patients who underwent ankle arthrodesis at any non-federal California hospital between 2015 and 2017. The primary outcome is readmission within 30 days or major perioperative complication. We build logistic regression and ML models spanning different classes of modeling approaches, assessing discrimination and calibration. We also rank the contribution of the included variables to model performance for prediction of adverse outcomes. RESULTS: A total of 1084 patients met inclusion criteria for this study. There were 131 patients with major complication or readmission (12.1%). The XGBoost algorithm demonstrates the highest discrimination with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.707 and is well-calibrated. The features most important for prediction of adverse outcomes for the XGBoost model include: diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, teaching hospital status, morbid obesity, history of musculoskeletal infection, history of hip fracture, renal failure, implant complication, history of major fracture. CONCLUSION: We report a well-calibrated algorithm for prediction of major perioperative complications and 30-day readmission after ankle arthrodesis. This tool may help accurately risk-stratify patients and decrease likelihood of major complications.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to systematically review the evidence in the literature to determine the clinical outcomes following glenohumeral arthrodesis. METHODS: Two independent reviewers performed a literature search in the PubMed database based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Studies were included if they reported on outcomes following shoulder arthrodesis from the years of 2000-2022. Functional outcomes that were collected included the Subjective Shoulder Value, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons shoulder index score, visual analog scale pain score, and Oxford Shoulder Score. Range-of-motion data were also collected. RESULTS: This review included 17 studies, with a total of 316 patients, that met the inclusion criteria. The majority of the patients were male (67.4%), and the average age was 38.4 years (range, 7-82 years). The overall fusion rate was 88.7%, and the time to fusion was on average, 3.9 months (range, 2-8 months). Shoulder arthrodesis resulted in improvement in each of the functional outcomes assessed: Subjective Shoulder Value (preoperatively, 18.8; postoperatively, 43.9; and percent change, 132.8%), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons shoulder index score (postoperatively, 62.1), visual analog scale pain score (preoperatively, 8.5; postoperatively, 3.03; and percent change, 62.4%), and Oxford Shoulder Score (preoperatively, 9.4; postoperatively, 30.9; and percent change, 328.7%). The abduction, forward flexion, external rotation, and internal rotation range-of-motion measurements postoperatively were 57°, 64°, 3°, and 48°, respectively. Complications were reported in 33.6% of patients, with fractures (20.9%) and infections (18.6%) being the most common sources of complication. CONCLUSION: Shoulder arthrodesis provides improvement in functional outcomes for end-stage glenohumeral injuries; however, it is also associated with high rates of complications.

Prone position is necessary for some neurosurgical and othopedic procedures. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in prone position was first described by McNeil in 1989, since then several successful cases have been published. We report the case of a 72-year-old patient with history of stage IV breast cancer who presented acute spinal cord compression due to a vertebral fracture at T10 level. Surgical spinal cord decompression and posterior arthrodesis was performed. After three hours of surgery, cardiorespiratory arrest occur while patient was in prone position. Unestable spine and fixed head made turning the patient into supine position very difficult, consequently prone CPR manoeuvres were started with recovery of spontaneous circulation. In case of cardiorespiratory arrest in prone position, the intense fixation and the extent of the surgical incision make the change to supine a time-consuming and technically complex procedure. If cardiorespiratory arrest occurs in the prone position, CPR in the prone position might be reasonable.
La posición de decúbito prono es necesaria para la realización de algunos procedimientos neuroquirúrgicos y traumatológicos. La reanimación cardiopulmonar (RCP) en prono fue descrita por primera vez por McNeil en 1989, desde entonces se han publicado varios casos de RCP en prono con buen resultado. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 72 años con antecedentes de carcinoma de mama estadio IV que presenta síndrome de compresión medular por fractura patológica a nivel de T10. Se decide realizar descompresión medular y artrodesis por vía posterior. A las 3 horas de la cirugía se produjo parada cardiorrespiratoria en prono. Dada la inestabilidad espinal y la fijación de la paciente, el cambio a supino era complejo por lo que se iniciaron maniobras de RCP en prono con posterior recuperación de circulación espontánea. En caso de parda cardiorrespiratoria en prono, la intensa fijación y la extensión de la incisión quirúrgica hace que el cambio a supino consuma tiempo y sea técnicamente complejo. Si la PCR ocurre en prono, está justificado iniciar las maniobras de RCP en esta posición.

Resumen Introducción: La perforación esofágica es una posible complicación de la artrodesis cervical anterior. Sin embargo, estas suelen ocurrir intraoperatoriamente o en el posoperatorio precoz. Caso clínico: Mujer de 35 años sometida, 3 años antes, a artrodesis de C3-C5, que tras sufrir un traumatismo leve con latigazo cervical, comienza con disfagia. Se objetiva un absceso retroesofágico por perforación esofágica, causado por rotura de la placa protésica y extrusión de un tornillo.
Introduction: Esophageal perforation is a possible complication after anterior cervical fusion. However, these complications usually appear intraoperatively or in the early postoperative course. Case report: A 35-years-old females, who underwent a C3-C5 anterior cervical fusion 3 years ago, after suffering a mild cervical trauma, she complained of dysphagia. A retroesophageal abscess was observed, caused by esophageal perforation, secondary to plaque rupture and screw extrusion.

To determinate whether a surgical protocol with immediate extensive debridement, closed irrigation system and antibiotic therapy would be effective to achieve healing of deep wound infection without removing the instrumentation. Prospective cohort study with 19 patients presenting degenerative spinal stenosis or degenerative spondylolisthesis, who developed infection after posterior lumbar arthrodesis. The diagnosis was confirmed by a microbial culture from subfascial lumbar fluid and/or blood. Patients were treated with a protocol of wound exploration, extensive flushing and debridement, placement of a closed irrigation system that was maintained for five days and intravenous antibiotics. The instrumentation system was not removed. Mean age was 59.31 (±13.17) years old and most patients were female (94.7%; 18/19). The mean period for the identification of the infection was 2 weeks and 57.9% underwent a single wound exploration. White blood count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein showed a significant decrease post-treatment when compared to pre-treatment values. A significant reduction of erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein was also observed at the final evaluation. No laboratory test was useful to predict the need for more than one debridement. Patients with wound infection after instrumentation can be treated without removal of the instrumentation through wound exploration, extensive flushing, debridement of necrotic tissue, closed irrigation system during 5 days and proper antibiotic therapy. The blood tests were not useful to predict surgical re-interventions.
Determinar se um protocolo cirúrgico de desbridamento extenso imediato, sistema de irrigação fechado e antibioticoterapia seria eficaz para alcançar a resolução da infecção profunda da ferida sem remover a instrumentação. Estudo prospectivo de coorte com 19 pacientes com estenose espinhal degenerativa ou espondilolistese degenerativa, que desenvolveram infecção após artrodese lombar posterior. O diagnóstico foi confirmado por uma cultura microbiana de fluido subfascial lombar e/ou sangue. Os pacientes foram tratados com um protocolo de exploração de ferida, irrigação extensa e desbridamento, colocação de um sistema de irrigação fechado que foi mantido durante cinco dias e antibióticos por via intravenosa. O sistema de instrumentação não foi removido. A média de idade foi de 59,31 anos (± 13,17) e a maioria dos pacientes era do sexo feminino (94,7%; 18/19). O tempo médio para a identificação da infecção foi de duas semanas e 57,9% foram submetidos a apenas uma exploração da ferida. A contagem de eritrócitos, a sedimentação de eritrócitos e a proteína C-reativa mostraram diminuição significativa após o tratamento. Na avaliação final, também foi observada redução significativa da sedimentação de eritrócitos e de proteína C-reativa. Nenhum exame laboratorial foi útil para prever a necessidade de mais do que um desbridamento. Os pacientes com infecção da ferida após a instrumentação podem ser tratados sem a remoção da instrumentação por meio da exploração da ferida, irrigação intensa, desbridamento de tecidos necróticos, sistema de irrigação fechado mantido por 5 dias e antibioticoterapia adequada. Os exames de sangue não foram úteis para prever a revisão cirúrgica.

RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the complications of anterior approach to the cervical spine in patients who underwent cervical arthrodesis with instrumentation. METHODS: Prospective and descriptive study was conducted from January 2009 to April 2010. All patients who underwent arthrodesis of the cervical spine by anterior approach were included, regardless the diagnosis. Access was made by the anterior approach on the right side. We evaluated the number of operated levels (1, 2 or 3 levels) and, the type of procedure performed: discectomy and placement of cage and plate (D+C+P), discectomy with placement of a cage (D+C) or corpectomy with placement of cage and plate (C+C+P). All complications related to surgical approach were reported. RESULTS: We studied 34 patients, 70% male. The average age was 50 years and mean follow-up was 8 months. Eighteen percent of patients had complications, distributed as follows: dysphasia (33%) and dysphonic (67%). Among patients who developed complications, most underwent to D+C+P (83%) and no complications were found in patients where no cervical plate was used. Regarding levels, both complications were identified in patients operated to one or two levels. However, in patients operated on three levels, only dysphonia was identified. CONCLUSION: The most frequent complication was dysphonia. Patients who presented more complications were those undergoing discectomy and fusion with cage and anterior cervical plate. All cases of dysphonia were in this group. The number of accessible levels does not seem to have affected the incidence of complications. .
OBJETIVO: Avaliar as complicações do acesso anterior à coluna cervical em pacientes submetidos à artrodese cervical com instrumentação. MÉTODOS: Estudo prospectivo e descritivo realizado no período de janeiro/2009 a abril/2010. Todos os pacientes submetidos à artrodese de coluna cervical por via anterior foram incluídos no estudo, independentemente do diagnóstico. O acesso foi realizado pela via anterior no lado direito. Foi avaliado o número de níveis operados (1, 2 ou 3 níveis) e o tipo de procedimento realizado: discectomia com colocação de cage e placa (D+C+P), discectomia com colocação de cage (D+C) ou corpectomia com colocação de cage e placa (C+C+P). Todas as complicações relacionadas ao acesso cirúrgico foram relatadas. RESULTADOS: Foram estudados 34 pacientes, sendo 70% do sexo masculino. A média de idade foi de 50 anos e o tempo de seguimento médio foi de oito meses. Dezoito por cento dos pacientes apresentaram complicações assim distribuídas: disfagia (33%) e disfonia (67%). Dentre os pacientes que evoluíram com complicações, a maioria foi submetida à realização de D+C+P (83%) e nenhuma complicação foi encontrada nos pacientes nos quais não foram colocadas placas cervicais. Com relação aos níveis, ambas as complicações foram identificadas nos pacientes operados em um ou dois níveis. Já nos operados em três níveis, somente a disfonia foi identificada. CONCLUSÃO: A complicação mais encontrada foi a disfonia. Os pacientes que mais apresentaram complicações foram os submetidos à discectomia e artrodese com cage e placa cervical anterior. Todos os casos de disfonia estavam neste grupo. O número de níveis acessados não parece ter interferido na ...
