RESUMO
In Japan, the hinotori™ Surgical Robot System obtained pharmaceutical approval for use in colorectal cancer surgery in October 2022. This system has an operating arm with eight axes, adjustable arm base, and flexible three-dimensional viewer, which are expected to be advantageous in colorectal cancer surgery. A 55-year-old man presented to our hospital with melena and was diagnosed with cStage IIA (cT3N0M0) rectal cancer. The patient underwent intersphincteric resection using hinotori™ Surgical Robot System. Appropriate port placement was available for rectal manipulation, lymph node dissection, and arm base angle adjustment. Herein, we report the world's first rectal cancer surgery using the hinotori™ Surgical Robot System with TaTME by two teams.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Cervical hybrid surgery optimizes the use of cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA) and zero-profile (ZOP) devices in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) but lacks uniform combination and biomechanical standards, especially in revision surgery (RS). This study aimed to investigate the biomechanical characteristics of adjacent segments of the different hybrid RS constructs in ACDF RS. METHODS: An intact 3-dimensional finite element model generated a normal cervical spine (C2-T1). This model was modified to the primary C5-6 ACDF model. Three RS models were created to treat C4-5 adjacent segment degeneration through implanting cages plus plates (Cage-Cage), ZOP devices (ZOP-Cage), or Bryan discs (CDA-Cage). A 1.0-Nm moment was applied to the primary C5-6 ACDF model to generate total C2-T1 range of motions (ROMs). Subsequently, a displacement load was applied to all RS models to match the total C2-T1 ROMs of the primary ACDF model. RESULTS: The ZOP-Cage model showed lower biomechanical responses including ROM, intradiscal pressure, maximum von Mises stress in discs, and facet joint force in adjacent segments compared to the Cage-Cage model. The CDA-Cage model exhibited the lowest biomechanical responses and ROM ratio at adjacent segments among all RS models, closely approached or lower than those in the primary ACDF model in most motion directions. Additionally, the maximum von Mises stress on the C3-4 and C6-7 discs increased in the Cage-Cage and ZOP-Cage models but decreased in the CDA-Cage model when compared to the primary ACDF model. CONCLUSION: The CDA-Cage construct had the lowest biomechanical responses with minimal kinematic change of adjacent segments. ZOP-Cage is the next best choice, especially if CDA is not suitable. This study provides a biomechanical reference for clinical hybrid RS decision-making to reduce the risk of ASD recurrence.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: For patients with type A aortic dissection complicated by mesenteric malperfusion syndrome, some centers advocate a nontraditional approach based on up-front endovascular intervention and delayed open repair. However, the efficacy of this strategy cannot be understood without first understanding outcomes of the traditional open-first strategy in the same select patient population eligible for delayed repair, applying modern techniques of hybrid aortic surgery. METHODS: Patients with acute type A aortic dissection and mesenteric malperfusion syndrome were queried from a single institution. Those presenting with aortic rupture, tamponade, or cardiogenic shock (ineligible for delayed repair) were excluded. Patients were managed with immediate open aortic repair. Short-term and long-term outcomes are reported. RESULTS: A total of 1228 patients were treated for acute type A dissection in the study period, of whom 77 were included in the mesenteric malperfusion syndrome cohort. In-hospital mortality was 29% compared with 39% in an identically selected mesenteric malperfusion syndrome population undergoing delayed repair reported previously. Among patients with mesenteric malperfusion syndrome, 32% underwent additional procedures addressing distal malperfusion in a hybrid operating room during or after open repair. Concomitant proximal malperfusion (coronary, cerebral, or upper extremity) was common in the mesenteric malperfusion syndrome cohort, present in 35% of cases. Although early mortality was greater in the mesenteric malperfusion syndrome cohort compared with all acute type A dissections, 10-year survival among those discharged alive was similar (65% vs 59%, P = .18). CONCLUSIONS: The traditional open-first repair strategy performs equal to or better than the delayed repair strategy for patients with mesenteric malperfusion syndrome eligible for delayed repair.
RESUMO
Background: Due to the widespread use of computed tomography (CT) screening and advances in diagnostic techniques, an increasing number of patients with multiple pulmonary nodules are being detected and pathologically diagnosed as synchronous multiple primary lung cancers (sMPLC). It has become a new challenge to treat multiple pulmonary nodules and obtain a favorable prognosis while minimizing the perioperative risk for patients. The purpose of this study was to summarize the preliminary experience with a hybrid surgery combining pulmonary resection and ablation for the treatment of sMPLC and to discuss the feasibility of this novel procedure with a literature review. Methods: This is a retrospective non-randomized controlled study. From January 1, 2022 to July 1, 2023, four patients underwent hybrid surgery combining thoracoscopic pulmonary resection and percutaneous pulmonary ablation for multiple pulmonary nodules. Patients were followed up at 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively and the last follow-up was on November 30, 2023. Clinical characteristics, perioperative outcomes, pulmonary function recovery and oncologic prognosis were recorded. Meanwhile we did a literature review of studies on hybridized pulmonary surgery for the treatment of multiple pulmonary nodules. Results: All the four patients were female, aged 52 to 70 years, and had no severe cardiopulmonary dysfunction on preoperative examination. Hybrid surgery of simultaneous pulmonary resection and ablation were performed in these patients to treat 2 to 4 pulmonary nodules, assisted by intraoperative real-time guide of C-arm X-ray machine. The operation time was from 155 to 240 minutes, and intraoperative blood loss was from 50 to 200 mL. Postoperative hospital stay was 2 to 7 days, thoracic drainage duration was 2 to 6 days, and pleural drainage volume was 300-1,770 mL. One patient presented with a bronchopleural fistula due to pulmonary ablation; the fistula was identified and sutured during thoracoscopic surgery and the patient recovered well. No postoperative 90-day complications occurred. After 3 months postoperatively, performance status scores for these patients recovered to 80 to 100. No tumor recurrence or metastasis was detected during the follow-up period. Conclusions: Hybrid procedures combining minimally invasive pulmonary resection with ablation are particularly suitable for the simultaneous treatment of sMPLC. Patients had less loss of pulmonary function, fewer perioperative complications, and favorable oncologic prognosis. Hybrid surgery is expected to be a better treatment option for patients with sMPLC.
RESUMO
Laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation has gained increasing popularity in treating pediatric primary vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and obstructive megaureter (OM). However, it is technically challenging with a relatively low success rate compared to open surgery. Here we designed a hybrid technique which incorporates laparoscopic surgery and pneumovesical ureteral reimplantation. From 2023 February to 2024 February, five boys and four girls underwent the hybrid reimplantation smoothly. There were seven children with VUR and two with OM. Patient age ranged from eight months to ten years. The mean time was 201.5 min (range 155-240 min) for unilateral operation and 260 min for bilateral operation. Follow-up ranged from 6.4 to 18.7 months. All patients remained asymptomatic, with voiding cystourethrogram showing cure or urinary ultrasonography showing significant improvement. In conclusion, the hybrid laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation appeared to be a simple and effective minimally invasive surgery for treating primary VUR and OM in children.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The unclear clinical outcomes of two different zero-profile implants with different number of screws in hybrid surgery restricts the choice of patient-specific implants. This study aims to compare two different implants on its postoperative subsidence, motion stabilization and clinical outcomes. It also provides references to the most reasonable implant choice in fusion surgery. METHODS: This was a retrospective study. From February 2014 to March 2022, 173 patients who underwent hybrid surgery were included. Among them, 122 received surgery with a four screw implant, while 51 received a two screw implant. We analyzed the significance of patient-specific factors, radiographic factors and clinical outcomes. The Wilcoxon rank sum test, t tests/analysis of variance (ANOVA) test and stepwise multivariate logistic regression were adopted for statistical analysis. RESULTS: No statistically significant difference was observed between the two screw and four screw groups in terms of immediate, middle, and long-term stability and fusion rate (p > 0.05). However, the two screws group had higher FSU height subsidence at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively and higher rates of significant subsidence at three and 6 months postoperatively (p < 0.05). Both groups showed significant clinical improvements at the final follow-up. CONCLUSION: Two screw and four screw implants provide comparable stability, fusion rates and clinical outcomes. However, the two screw implant was inferior to the four screw implant in subsidence prevention. Therefore, the two-screw implant is non-inferior to the four-screw implant in most patients. It can be used as the priority choice in the fusion segment by its easy manageability. However, the patients with a high risk of subsidence such as multilevel surgery, the elderly, lower BMD, bad cervical alignment should receive a four screw implant rather than a two screw implant.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Cervical alignment and range of motion (ROM) changes after cervical spine surgery are related to cervical biomechanical and functions. Few studies compared these parameters between posterior laminoplasty and anterior 3-level hybrid surgery incorporating anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) with cervical disc replacement (CDR). This study is aimed to detect the differences of cervical alignment and ROM changes of the two surgeries in a matched-cohort study. METHODS: From January 2018 and May 2020, 51 patients who underwent 3-level hybrid surgery incorporating ACDF with ACDR were included. A 1:1 match of the patients who underwent cervical laminoplasty based on age, gender, duration of symptoms, body mass index, and cervical alignment type was utilized as control group. General data (operative time, blood loss, etc.), Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, VAS (Visual Analog Score), NDI (The Neck Disability Index), cervical sagittal alignment, and cervical range of motion (ROM) were recorded and compared. RESULTS: Both groups gained significant improvement in JOA, VAS, NDI scores postoperatively (p < 0.05). Cervical alignment significantly increased in hybrid group and decreased in control group after surgeries (p < 0.001). ROM decrease was similar in two groups. For cervical lordosis, though cervical alignment angle in control group decreased, the final follow-up cervical alignment and cervical alignment changes were not significantly different between hybrid and control groups. For cervical non-lordosis, cervical alignment decreased in control group while increased in hybrid group. At final follow-up, cervical alignment and the changes between the two groups were significantly different. Both control group and hybrid group had similar ROM decrease after the surgery no matter whether there was cervical lordosis or non-lordosis. Hybrid surgery showed cervical alignments significantly improved and similar ROM preservation compared with control group at final follow-up both for 1-level and 2-level disc replacement subgroups. CONCLUSIONS: The hybrid surgery demonstrated advantages of preserving cervical alignment and gaining similar cervical ROM preservation compared with cervical laminoplasty, especially for cervical non-lordosis. Given the importance of restoring lordotic cervical alignment, hybrid surgery may be preferred over laminoplasty to treat multilevel cervical disc herniation.

PURPOSE: Three-level hybrid surgery (HS) consisting of cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA) and anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has been partly used for the treatment of multi-level cervical degenerative disc disease (CDDD). The complications related to the implants and the collapse of the surgical vertebral bodies had been reported in multi-level anterior cervical spine surgery. Thus, this study aimed to explore the biomechanical effects on the prostheses and vertebrae in three-level HS. METHODS: A FE model of cervical spine (C0-T1) was constructed. Five surgical models were developed. They were FAF model (ACDF-CDA-ACDF), AFA model (CDA-ACDF-CDA), FFF model (three-level ACDF), SF model (single-level ACDF), and SA model (single-level CDA). A 75-N follower load and 1.0-N·m moment was applied to produce flexion, extension, lateral bending, and axial rotation. RESULTS: Compared with the intact model, the range of motion (ROM) of total cervical spine in FAF model decreased by 34.54%, 54.48%, 31.76%, and 27.14%, respectively, in flexion, extension, lateral bending, and axial rotation, which were lower than those in FFF model and higher than those in AFA model. The ROMs of CDA segments in FAF and AFA models were similar to the intact model and SA model. Compared with the intact model, the ROMs at C3/4 segment in FFF model increased from 5.71% to 7.85%, and increased from 5.31% to 6.81% at C7/T1 segment, following by FAF model, then the FAF model. The maximum interface pressures of the Prestige-LP in FAF model were similar to SA model, however the corresponding values were increased in AFA model. The maximum interface pressures of the Zero-P were increased in FAF and AFA model compared with those in SF and FFF models. The stress was mainly distributed on the screws. In AFA model, the maximum pressures of the ball and trough articulation in superior and inferior Prestige-LP were all increased compared with those in SA and FAF model. In FFF model, the maximum pressures of the vertebrae were higher than those in other models. The stress was mainly distributed on the anterior area of the vertebral bodies. CONCLUSIONS: HS seemed to be more suitable than ACDF for the surgical treatment of three-level CDDD in consideration of the biomechanical effects, especially for the two-level CDA and one-level ACDF construct. But a more appropriate CDA prosthesis should be explored in the future.

Vulvar intestinal adenocarcinoma is a rare malignancy. The most significant predictor of advanced vulvar cancer is achieving complete resection, although determining the optimal treatment for this rare histologic type remains uncertain. We report the case of a 63-year-old woman with a primary vulvar tumor suspected of having rectal invasion and inguinal lymph node metastases based on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scans. To achieve complete resection of stage IIIC intestinal-type vulvar adenocarcinoma, we performed a laparoscopic posterior pelvic exenteration (PPE) and radical vulvectomy, along with bilateral inguinal lymph node dissection. This case report highlights the use of a novel hybrid procedure that combines laparoscopic PPE with radical vulvectomy and bilateral inguinal lymph node dissection for vulvar adenocarcinoma of the intestinal type. Laparoscopic PPE can be considered a minimally invasive approach for vulvar tumor when complete resection is achievable with an appropriate safety margin.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms arising from the internal carotid artery subsequent to carotid endarterectomy are exceptionally infrequent. Herein, we present a case detailing an internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm that manifested subsequent to a hybrid carotid endarterectomy and endovascular therapy intervention. Our approach to managing this condition involved a novel technique wherein thrombin was directly injected into the luminal cavity of the pseudoaneurysm under the guidance of a C-arm. CASE PRESENTATION: A 66-year-old male patient of Chinese ethnicity exhibited a 4-month history of headache and a 20-day history of gait disturbance. Digital subtraction angiography revealed occlusion in the cervical region of the left carotid artery. Following a hybrid surgical procedure, the patient reported mild pain and bruising surrounding the incision site of the left internal carotid artery endarterectomy. Subsequent angiography identified the presence of a carotid artery pseudoaneurysm. Utilizing C-arm guidance, thrombin was then directly injected into the luminal cavity of the pseudoaneurysm, resulting in complete healing during follow-up. CONCLUSION: For the management of pseudoaneurysms arising post carotid endarterectomy, the direct injection of thrombin into the aneurysm cavity under the guidance of a C-arm is deemed both safe and efficacious.

OBJECTIVE: To comparatively analyze the correlation between axial symptoms (AS) and cervical sagittal alignment parameters after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and hybrid surgery (HS). METHODS: From January 2018 to June 2023, 74 patients who underwent ACDF (n = 36) or HS (n = 38) for two-level or three-level cervical spondylotic myelopathy were retrospectively analyzed. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA), Neck Disability Index (NDI) were recorded to assess clinical outcomes. Cervical sagittal alignment parameters (Cobb's angle C2-7, C7 slope [C7S], and C2-7 sagittal vertical axis [C2-7 SVA]) were measured preoperatively, 3 days postoperatively, and at the last follow-up. The range of motion (ROM) of C2-7 and ROM of surgical segment were measured. The occurrence of AS was observed at the last follow-up. Logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between postoperative AS and cervical sagittal alignment parameters. RESULTS: Both in ACDF group and HS group, VAS, JOA and NDI scores showed significant improvements at 3-day postoperation and at the last follow-up (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). The Cobb's angle C2-7 and C7S were significantly increased at 3 days postoperation compared with pre-operatively in both groups (P < 0.05). C2-7SVA was increased in both groups 3 days after surgery compared with pre-operatively, but there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). At the last follow-up, the ROM of C2-7 in ACDF group was significantly smaller than HS group (P < 0.05). The prevalence of postoperative AS in the ACDF group and HS group was 41.7 and 18.4%, respectively, with statistical difference between the two groups (P < 0.05). When simple Logistic regression analysis was used, the last Cobb's angle C2-7 (ß = -0.088), the last C2-7SVA (ß = 0.099) in ACDF group and the last C2-7SVA (ß = 0.222) in HS group were all correlated with the occurrence of postoperative AS. When multiple Logistic regression analysis was used, only the last C2-7SVA (ß = 0.181) in the HS group was positively correlated with the occurrence of postoperative AS. CONCLUSIONS: Both ACDF and HS can achieve satisfied clinical outcomes. ACDF and HS can improve cervical sagittal balance to a certain extent, and HS is superior to ACDF in maintaining ROM. The decrease of the last Cobb's angle C2-7 and the increase of the last C2-7SVA may be related to the occurrence of AS after ACDF. The increase of the last C2-7SVA was an independent risk factor for the occurrence of AS after HS.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are the most common malignant subepithelial lesions involving the gastrointestinal tract. Surgical techniques have been the mainstay of treatment, however, in recent times hybrid surgeries are being introduced yielding better clinical outcomes.
RESUMO
Introduction: The treatment of skip-level cervical degenerative disease (CDD) with no degenerative changes observed in the intervening segment (IS) is complicated. This research aims to provide a reference basis for selecting treatment approaches for noncontiguous CDD. Methods: To establish accurate finite element models (FEMs), this study included computed tomography (CT) data from 21 patients with CDD (10 males and 11 females) for modeling. The study primarily discusses four cross-segment surgical approaches: upper (C3/4) anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and lower (C5/6) cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA), FA model; upper CDA (C3/4) and lower ACDF (C5/6), AF model; upper ACDF (C3/4) and lower ACDF (C5/6), FF model; upper CDA (C3/4) and lower CDA (C5/6), AA model. An initial axial load of 73.6 N was applied at the motion center using the follower load technique. A moment of 1.0 Nm was applied at the center of the C2 vertebra to simulate the overall motion of the model. The statistical analysis was conducted using STATA version 14.0. Statistical significance was defined as a p value less than 0.05. Results: The AA group had significantly greater ROM in flexion and axial rotation in other segments compared to the FA group (p < 0.05). The FA group consistently exhibited higher average intervertebral disc pressure in C2/3 during all motions compared to the AF group (p < 0.001); however, the FA group displayed lower average intervertebral disc pressure in C6/7 during all motions (p < 0.05). The AA group had lower facet joint contact stresses during extension in all segments compared to the AF group (p < 0.05). The FA group exhibited significantly higher facet joint contact stresses during extension in C2/3 (p < 0.001) and C6/7 (p < 0.001) compared to the AF group. Discussion: The use of skip-level CDA is recommended for the treatment of non-contiguous CDD. The FA construct shows superior biomechanical performance compared to the AF construct.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The treatment strategy for hemorrhagic moyamoya disease (MMD) due to a ruptured aneurysm at the distal portion of the anterior choroidal artery remains controversial. The authors successfully treated the ruptured aneurysm with neuroendoscopic hematoma evacuation, followed by endovascular coil embolization. OBSERVATIONS: The authors encountered two patients with massive hemorrhagic MMD whose MMD had already been diagnosed and who had a periventricular anastomosis due to a ruptured aneurysm of the distal portion of the anterior choroidal artery involving the periventricular anastomosis. In both cases, neuroendoscopic hematoma evacuation was performed for hemorrhagic MMD in the acute phase, followed by endovascular coil embolization of the ruptured aneurysm in the chronic phase. In both endovascular treatments, the patient's condition was stabilized by hematoma evacuation, allowing a detailed preoperative evaluation of the anatomical findings of the vessel and functional findings of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring using continuous monitoring of motor evoked potentials to preserve motor function. LESSONS: Combination therapy can be useful for hemorrhagic MMD in patients with diagnosed MMD with a periventricular anastomosis. Additionally, a preoperative understanding of the vascular construction and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring will aid in the successful coil embolization of aneurysms at the distal portion of the anterior choroidal artery with hemorrhagic MMD.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Vascular injuries during lumbar surgery are rare, but complications such as false aneurysm of the iliac artery, arteriovenous fistula, and lower limb artery embolism are even rarer. These complications can easily be misdiagnosed and result in the inability to choose an appropriate surgical approach, leading to serious consequences. CASE PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old male patient experienced swelling in both lower limbs, along with numbness, coldness, and dysfunction in his right lower limb, after undergoing a "posterior lumbar discectomy" surgery. On the 20th day post-surgery, a clear diagnosis was established through CTV: 1) Right common iliac artery injury with pseudoaneurysm formation; 2) Right iliac arteriovenous fistula; 3) Right popliteal artery embolism. The patient underwent hybrid surgery to address multiple complications simultaneously and made a good recovery after the procedure. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Rarely, lumbar spine surgery can concurrently lead to conditions such as pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula, and lower limb artery embolism. Due to atypical symptoms and signs, it is often misdiagnosed. Hybrid surgery involves incising the femoral artery, using a thrombectomy catheter to remove clots from the iliac artery above and the popliteal artery below, and then re-implanting a covered stent to treat pseudoaneurysm and arteriovenous fistula. CONCLUSION: With a solid clinical knowledge, one can make a timely diagnosis and choose an appropriate surgical method to intervene, thereby improving the prognosis. Hybrid surgery combines the minimally invasive and safe effects of endovascular techniques with the precise effects of open surgery, and it also allows for the simultaneous treatment of multiple comorbidities.
RESUMO
STUDY DESIGN: Systematic review. OBJECTIVE: Examine the clinical evidence for the use of osteobiologics in hybrid surgery (combined anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and total disc replacement (TDR)) in patients with multilevel cervical degenerative disc disease (DDD). METHODS: PubMed and Embase were searched between January 2000 and August 2020. Clinical studies investigating 18-80 year old patients with multilevel cervical DDD who underwent hybrid surgery with or without the use of osteobiologics were considered eligible. Two reviewers independently screened and assessed the identified articles. The methodological index for non-randomized studies (MINORS) tool and the risk of bias (RoB 2.0) assessment tool were used to assess risk of bias. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) was used to evaluate quality of evidence across studies per outcome. RESULTS: Eleven studies were included. A decrease in cervical range of motion was observed in most studies for both the hybrid surgery and the control groups consisting of stand-alone ACDF or TDR. Fusion rates of 70-100% were reported in both the hybrid surgery and control groups consisting of stand-alone ACDF. The hybrid surgery group performed better or comparable to the control group in terms of adjacent segment degeneration. Studies reported an improvement in visual analogue scale for pain and neck disability index values after surgery compared to preoperative scores for both treatment groups. The included studies had moderate methodological quality. CONCLUSIONS: There is insufficient evidence for assessing the use of osteobiologics in multilevel hybrid surgery and additional high quality and controlled research is deemed essential.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Chronic internal carotid artery occlusion (CICAO) is a common cause of stroke and ischemia recurrence. An increasing number of reports have highlighted the potential of hybrid surgery for treating CICAO. There are few studies, specifically nonrandomized controlled trials, on the safety and effectiveness of hybrid surgery for the treatment of CICAO, so in this study, we hypothesized that hybrid surgery would be safe, have an acceptable complication rate and a high success rate. METHODS: MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched for relevant studies published up to January 30, 2023. The primary endpoint was recanalization rates of occluded vessels, and the secondary endpoint was perioperative death and procedure-related complications. Subgroup analysis focused on the recanalization rates of endovascular intervention (EI) and hybrid surgery, as well as the rates of recanalization below the clinoid segment and at the clinoid segment and beyond. The follow-up visit was conducted at least 3 months after surgery, and stenosis or occlusion recurrence was confirmed by review of CTA or DSA scan. RESULTS: The databases were searched and 1,709 records were identified, of which 16 articles were used in the meta-analysis, and 464 CICAO patients with complete data who underwent hybrid surgery were enrolled. Hybrid surgery was associated with higher success rates (RD = 0.87, 95% CI [0.84-0.91], p < 0.00001) than EI (OR = 4.71, 95% CI [2.32-9.56], p < 0.0001). The procedural success rate in the below-clinoid segment group was significantly higher than that in the clinoid segment and beyond group (OR = 13.76, 95% CI [5.31-35.66], p < 0.00001). The total periprocedural complication rate was low (RD = 0.11, 95% CI [0.07-0.15], p < 0.00001 and RD = 0.04, 95% CI [0.00-0.07], p = 0.03). Target vessel restenosis or reocclusion occurred in 35 patients (8%) during the follow-up period (RD = 0.08, 95% CI [0.04-0.12], p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Hybrid surgery is the combination of the advantages of open surgery and EI, has a high success rate and a low risk of recurrence of stenosis and occlusion in the long term. Randomized controlled trials on hybrid surgery for internal carotid artery occlusion are necessary.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the short-term efficacy and imaging results of using the Mobi-C in cervical hybrid surgery on 2-level cervical spondylolisthesis. To observe post-operative changes in the flexion-extension centre of rotation (FE-COR) and anterior bone loss (ABL) of the anterior cervical disc replacement (ACDR) segment. METHODS: Forty-two patients (20 males and 22 females, aged 42â67 years) who underwent cervical hybrid surgery were retrospectively analysed. Their ACDR segment used Mobi-C, and the fusion segment used ROI-C, with a follow-up of 25â42 months (31.1 ± 4.8 months). The modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (mJOA) score, Neck Disability Index (NDI), and visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to assess clinical outcomes. Pre-operative, 6-month post-operative, and final follow-up radiographs were collected to compare total cervical spine curvature (C2-C7), curvature of the operated segments, range of motion (ROM) in the total cervical spine, operated segmental ROM, ACDR segmental ROM, and operated adjacent segmental ROM. The height of the superior articular process (HSAP), the orientation of zygapophyseal joint spaces (OZJS), and the length of the superior articular surface (LSAS) were measured. The FE-COR of the ACDR segment was measured using the mid-plumb line method. The translation distance of the Mobi-C was measured. The degree of disc degeneration in the adjacent segment, bony fusion of the ACDF segment, and ABL of the upper and lower vertebra of the ACDR segment were observed. RESULTS: In our group, all patients have shown improvements in their postoperative mJOA, NDI, and VAS scores. Overall cervical ROM and surgical segmental ROM decreased (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant decrease in ACDR segmental ROM and upper or lower adjacent segmental ROM compared with pre-operatively (P > 0.05). For FE-COR-X, only the last follow-up compared with pre-surgery showed statistical significance (46.74 ± 7.71% vs. 50.74 ± 6.92%, P < 0.05). For FE-COR-Y, the change was statistically significant at both 6 months post-operation and the final follow-up compared to pre-operation (45.37% ± 21.11% vs. 33.82% ± 10.87%, 45. 37% ± 21.11% vs. 27.48% ± 13.58%, P < 0.05). No significant difference in the Mobi-C translation distance was observed (P > 0.05). Moreover, the difference in HSAP was not statistically significant at each node (P > 0.05). The OZJS and LSAS were significantly different at the final follow-up compared to the pre-operative period (P < 0.05). All the ACDF segments were observed in a stable condition at the final follow-up. Furthermore, 9 of the adjacent segments showed imaging ASD (9/82, 10.98%), and all were present at the last follow-up, of which 6 were mild, and 3 were moderate. Twenty of the 42 Mobi-C segments had no significant ABL (grade 0) 6 months post-operatively (47.62%). Sixteen cases (38.10%) showed mild ABL (grade 1), and 6 cases (14.28%) showed moderate ABL (grade 2). No severe ABL occurred. CONCLUSION: The cervical hybrid surgery using Mobi-C artificial cervical discs can achieve satisfactory results. The Mobi-C segmental FE-COR-X shows a slow forward shift trend, and FE-COR-Y drops noticeably within 6 months post-surgery before stabilizing. It's common to see mild to moderate ABL after cervical hybrid surgery using Mobi-C, and significant progression is unlikely in the short term. Furthermore, changes in the FE-COR after hybrid surgery in the Mobi-C segment might not affect clinical outcomes.

In recent years, artificial cervical discs have been used in intervertebral disc replacement surgery and hybrid surgery (HS). The advantages and disadvantages of different artificial cervical discs in artificial cervical disc replacement surgery have been compared. However, few scholars have studied the biomechanical effects of various artificial disc prostheses on the human cervical spine in HS which include the Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) and Cervical Disc Arthroplasty (CDA). This study compared the biomechanical behavior of Mobi-C and Prestige LP in the operative and adjacent segments during two-level hybrid surgery. A three-dimensional finite element model of C2-C7 was first established and validated. Subsequently, clinical surgery was then simulated to establish a surgical model of anterior cervical fusion at the C4-C5 level. Mobi-C and Prestige-LP artificial disc prostheses were implanted at the C5-C6 level to create two hybrid models. All finite element models were fixed on the lower endplate of the C7 vertebra and subjected to a load of 73.6 N and different directions of 1 Nm torque on the odontoid process of the C2 vertebra to simulate human flexion, extension, lateral bending, and axial rotation. This paper compares the ROM, intervertebral pressure, and facet joint force after hybrid surgery with the intact model. The results show that compared with Prestige LP, Mobi-C can improve ROM of the replacement segment and compensate for the intervertebral pressure of the adjacent segment more effectively, but the facet joint pressure of the replacement segment may be higher.
