RESUMO
With the further understanding of the concept of three-dimensional correction by spinal surgeons, the progress of internal fixation instruments, de-rotation tools and the improvement of surgical techniques, the scientific formulation of surgical strategies for Lenke 5 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis has gradually become the focus of controversy. The formulation of preoperative surgical strategy not only directly affects the correction of deformity and balance reconstruction, but also is directly related to the activity function of spine and the quality of life of patients after operation. Therefore, this paper will discuss from three aspects: the method of surgical fixation, the surgical approach and the selection of fixed vertebrae. The author believes that Risser sign should be taken as an important consideration to judge the method of surgical fixation. The choice of surgical approach must refer to the operator's familiarity and experience with the approach, grasp the adaptive signs and consider the risks and benefits of the operation, and choose the appropriate surgical approach according to the needs of different patients. The choice of fixed vertebrae, choosing upper end vertebra (UEV) as upper instrumented vertebra (UIV), is safer than the more radical upper end vertebra-1 (UEV-1), and five factors need to be combined in the specific selection of lower instrumented vertebra (LIV).

Objective: To investigate the risk factors associated with the development of proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) after posterior spinal fusion for in children with Lenke type 5 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Methods: It was a retrospective case-control study that included medical records of 98 children with Lenke type 5 AIS who underwent posterior orthopedic surgery under general anesthesia at the Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2013 to December 2018. There were 23 males and 75 females with a mean age of (14.5±2.2) years (10-18 years). Patients were divided into PJK and non-PJK groups according to whether the posterior junctional angle (PJA) was greater than 10° and increased for more than 10° from the preoperative period at the the last follow-up. Univariate analysis was used to analyze the correlation of general data of the children with occurrence of PJK after the operation. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of postoperative PJK. Results: There were 35 cases in the PJK group and 63 cases in the non-PJK group. The PJK and non-PJK groups were followed up for (35.6±7.3) months and (36.4±7.5) months, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.637). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in general data such as gender, age, and body mass index (all P>0.05), while there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in upper instrumented vertebrea (UIV) location and junctional area posterior ligamentous complex (PLC) injury (all P<0.05). The results of univariate analysis showed that UIV location at T10-T12, junctional area PLC injury, preoperative coronal thoracic curve (TC), preoperative and final follow-up PJA, and preoperative and final follow-up pelvic incidence-lumbarlordosis (PI-LL) were correlated with postoperative PJK (OR=2.50, 5.37, 0.92, 1.12, 1.32, 1.06, 3.35, all P<0.05). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that UIV located at T10-T12 (OR=2.346, 95%CI: 1.582-3.481, P=0.001), junctional area PLC injury (OR=5.112, 95%CI: 1.283-20.418, P=0.023) and last follow-up PI-LL (OR=1.826, 95%CI: 1.558-24.745, P=0.012) were risk factors for the occurrence of postoperative PJK in children with Lenke type 5 AIS. Conclusions: Postoperative UIV fixation to the thoracolumbar segment, PLC injury in the junctional area and excessive postoperative PI-LL in children with Lenke type 5 AIS may be the risk factors for the occurrence of PJK after the operation. It is suggested that avoidance of UIV selection to the thoracolumbar segment, intraoperative protection of the PLC located near the UIV and restoration of a good PI-LL relationship may reduce the incidence of PJK.

The modern surgical treatment of cervical degenerative disc disease can be traced back to the advent of anterior cervical decompression and fusion.With the emergence of fusion-related complications,different scholars have promoted the gradual transformation of cervical degenerative disc diseases from "fusion fixation" to "non-fusion reconstruction" through in-depth fusion with materials science,engineering mechanics and other disciplines.The innovation of this treatment concept is consistent with the original intention of "structural remodeling,functional reconstruction,maximum repair and reconstruction of the morphology and function of skeletal muscle system" in orthopedic bionic treatment,which is essentially in line with the "bionic alternative therapy" in orthopedic bionic therapy.This paper focuses on the surgical treatment of cervical degenerative disc diseases,reviews the development history of artificial cervical disc replacement,analyzes the evolution from orthopedic biomimetic therapy,and explores a new direction for the design of artificial cervical disc prostheses and the treatment of cervical degenerative disc diseases in the future.

Objective: To investigate the clinical outcomes and radiographic results of artificial cervical disc replacement (ACDR) for cervical adjacent segment disease (ASD). Methods: The clinical data of 28 patients with single-segment cervical ASD treated with ACDR in Xi 'an Honghui Hospital from December 2013 to July 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 19 males and 9 females with a mean age of (46±7) years (36-63 years). Preoperative, postoperative 1 month and postoperative 24 months of clinical and radiographic outcomes were recorded and compared. The clinical outcome mainly includes Japanese orthopedic association (JOA), Neck Disability Index (NDI%), Odom score and complications. Imaging assessment mainly included range of motion (ROM) of cervical spine, surgical segment ROM, Cobb angle of surgical segment, degree of adjacent disc degeneration, heterotopic ossification, and prosthesis related image parameters. Results: In terms of clinical outcome, the average JOA score was 12.7±1.5 before surgery, 14.0±1.0 one month after surgery, 15.8±0.9 24 months after surgery, and the improvement rate of JOA was 75%±19%. The mean NDI% was 27.0%±2.8% before surgery, 20.5%±1.6% one month after surgery, and 15.3%±2.8% 24 months after surgery; the difference before and after treatment was statistically significant (F=159.101, P<0.01). Twenty patients were classified with excellent Odom score and 8 patients with good Odom score at the final follow-up. The total ROM of cervical spine, operation segment ROM, operation segment Cobb angle were all improved significantly after the operation (F=4.633, 6.063, 26.952, all P<0.05). There was a statistical difference in Miyazaki classification between adjacent discs above ACDR and below the fusion segment 24 months after surgery (µ(c)=2.12, P=0.034). The incidence of heterotopic ossification was 14.3%. The results of displacement degree of prosthesis were as follow: coronal plane (0.30±0.11) mm, sagittal plane (0.28±0.10) mm; subsidence of the prosthesis: (0.27±0.09) mm. No prosthesis loosening was observed. Conclusions: The clinical outcome of revision of cervical ASD by ACDR is satisfactory. The risk of intervertebral disc degeneration in adjacent segments is significantly lower than that of ACDF due to the presence of certain motor function postoperatively.

BACKGROUND: Inconsistent accuracies of CT-guided thoracic spinal biopsies have been reported in previous studies. PURPOSE: To determine the accuracy of CT-guided thoracic spinal biopsy, to compare the results with those previously reported, and to determine if there are any factors that influence the accuracy of CT-guided thoracic spinal biopsy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In total, 158 consecutive CT-guided percutaneous thoracic spine procedures (performed at the Department of Spinal Surgery, Xi'an Red Cross Hospital between April 2000 and July 2010) were reviewed. The 158 lesions were categorized by location and radiographic features. Pathological and clinical follow-up were used to determine accuracy. RESULTS: The diagnostic accuracy of CT-guided thoracic spinal biopsy was 90.5% overall. Biopsy of metastatic bone disease (98.2%) was significantly more accurate than biopsies of primary tumors (80.9%) and of hematological malignancies (47.0%) (P < 0.05 and P < 0.005, respectively). The diagnostic accuracy of CT-guided thoracic spinal biopsy was significantly higher for the lower thoracic spine (97.6%) than for the middle (90.0%) or upper thoracic spine (80.4%) (P < 0.05 and P < 0.025, respectively). The diagnostic accuracy was significantly higher for lytic lesions (96.4%) than for sclerotic lesions (81.3%) (P < 0.010). The accuracy of biopsies performed using the transpedicular approach (91.0%) was not significantly different from that of biopsies performed using posterolateral approaches (91.5%) (0.25 < P < 0.5). CONCLUSION: Percutaneous CT-guided thoracic spinal biopsy is a viable alternative to open surgical biopsy. The diagnostic accuracy was not affected by any of the variables except for lesion level, histology, and radiographic features.

OBJECTIVE: To make a cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) comprehensive evaluation for 4 hypotensive drugs, by observing the effects of drugs on blood pressure lowering, symptom improving, and adverse effect and quality of life (QOL) influencing. METHODS: Two hundred and ninety-two patients with mild to moderate hypertension were divided into 4 groups at random and treated with compound Lingjiao Jiangya Pill, benazepril, amlodipine and indapamide respectively with a therapeutic course of 6 weeks. QOL was measured with FS-36 questionnaire and efficacy policy model was applied for comprehensive evaluation of CEA. RESULTS: Through CEA a comprehensive evaluation was made in order as follows: indapamide 3.65 which was the best, and then Lingjiao Jiangya Pill 3.55, amlodipine 2.90 and benazepril 2.35. CONCLUSION: The 4 drugs can not only lower blood pressure but also improve clinical symptoms with less adverse effect. It is of great practical significance to evaluate hypotensive drugs by combining QOL appraisal. The position of Lingjiao Jiangya Pill in CEA order suggests that more attention should be paid to herbal hypotensive drugs.
