The gold-standard for bone substitution of large bone defects continues to be autogenous bone graft. Artificial bone substitutes are difficult to replace the autogenous bone grafting due to excessive immune response, fast biodegradation characteristics and inappropriate biocompatibility. Given these drawbacks, osteoimmunology and its advanced functional biomaterials have gained growing attention in recent years. Immune system plays an essential role during bone healing via regulating the shift from inflammatory to anti-inflammation phenotype, and inflammatory cytokines response. The inflammatory reaction mainly include infiltration of immune cells (such as macrophages, neutrophils, T cells, B cells, etc) and release of inflammatory factors (such as IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, etc.) at the bone defects, which subsequently affect the step-wised process of bone healing rejuvenation. Hence, advanced bone biomaterials with immunomodulatory properties is of great significance for the treatment of patients with recalcitrant bone defects, especially for delayed healing or non-union. The reciprocal mechanism of immuno-modulated bone healing, however, is not fully understood and more research is required in the future.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of posterior pedicle screw fixation through Wiltse paraspinal approach and posterior traditional open approach in the treatment of thoracolumbar fracture and dislocation.Methods A retrospective case control study was performed based on the clinical data of 40 patients with thoracolumbar fracture and dislocation admitted between January 2013 and January 2016.All the surgeries were performed through posterior midline incision,and they were divided into two groups according to different approaches.Patients in Group A received pedicle screw fixation through Wiltse paraspinal approach while Group B received fixed pedicle screw through open surgery.Group A was composed of 12 males and 8 females,aged 21-60 years [(41.5 ±9.6)years].Group B was composed of 13 males and 7 females,aged 18-58 years [(39.1 ± 13.1) years].The same surgical procedures were adopted in spinal decompression,reduction,and the spinal vertebral interbody bone graft and fusion surgery in the two groups.Operation duration,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage volume,visual analogue scale (VAS),spinal canal patency at the last follow-up,percentage of postoperative injury of vertebral height recovery,and Cobb angle were compared.CT and MRI were used to evaluate postoperative paravertebral muscle atrophy,and American spinal injury association (ASIA) impairment scale was used to evaluate neurological function assessment.Results All patients were followed up for 9-33 months,with (19.3 ± 5.6) months for Group A and (22.5 ± 4.9) months for Group B (P > 0.05).The operation duration was (240.5 ± 38.3) min in Group A and (258.5 ± 43.7) min in Group B (P > 0.05).The intraoperative blood loss was (525.0 ± 168.2) ml in Group A,less than (770.0 ± 269.2) ml in Group B (P < 0.05).Postoperative drainage volume was (190.1 ± 78.9) ml in Group A,less than (281.7 ± 122.3) ml in Group B (P < 0.05).VAS score 24 hours after operation and at the last follow-up in Group A was (6.4 ± 1.0) points and (1.6 ± 0.5) points,respectively,better than those in Group B [(7.8 ± 0.7) points and (2.2 ± 0.4) points] (P < 0.05).No significant differences were observed in terms of spinal canal patency at the last follow-up,percentage of postoperative injury of vertebral height recovery,and Cobb angle [Group A:(85.3 ± 3.7) %,(85.5 ± 2.7) %,and (4.7 ± 1.2)°;GroupB:(85.8±1.8)%,(88.8 ±1.3)%,and (5.3 ±1.5)°] (P>0.05).In terms of MRI evaluation score of postoperative paravertebral muscle atrophy,Group A reported better results than Group B [(2.1 ± 0.6) points vs.(1.2 ± 0.6) points] (P < 0.05).At the last follow-up,there were 7,5,6,1 and 1 patients in Group A,while 6,6,5,2 and 1 patients in Group B at ASIA grades A,B,C,D and E (P > 0.05).Within the same group,significant difference was observed between the preoperative data and that at the last follow-up in terms of postoperative VAS score,spinal canal patency,percentage of injury of vertebral height,Cobb angle,and ASIA impairment scale (P < 0.05).Conclusion For thoracolumbar fracture and dislocation,compared with traditional open approach,posterior pedicle screw fixation through Wiltse paraspinal approach can effectively restore the vertebral body height and spinal canal patency and can reduce the intraoperative bleeding,postoperative drainage,postoperative back pain,and paravertebral lesion.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To assess the biomechanical stability of asymmetrical posterior internal fixation for transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) with transfacetopedicular screws (TFPS).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Range of motion (ROM) testing was performed in 7 fresh-frozen human cadaveric lumbar spine motion segments in flexion/extension, lateral bending, and axial rotation using 10.0 Nm torques at the L3-4 motion segment. The sequential test configurations included intact motion segment, TLIF and ipsilateral pedicle screw (PS), TLIF and ipsilateral PS plus contralateral TFPS according to Boucher technique, and TLIF and bilateral PS. The ROM was determined to assess the construct stability.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In flexion/extension, lateral bending, and axial rotation, no measureable difference was found in the ROM between the standard bilateral pedicle screw and the novel asymmetric posterior internal fixation after TLIF. After TLIF, the ipsilateral PS construct provided less segment stability than the novel asymmetric construct with TFPS in flexion, left bending and left rotation. In rotation, the novel asymmetric construct allowed for significant off-axial rotation motions detrimental to the stability and fusion.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Ipsilateral PS placement plus contralateral TFPS provides stability comparable to that of TLIF with bilateral PS, and can be an alternative in minimal invasive surgery.</p>
