RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the effect of mobile C-arm X-ray system in the surgical treatment of thoracolumbar spine fractures.Methods:The clinical data of 120 patients with thoracolumbar spine fractures admitted to People′s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from July 2018 to July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different surgical methods, they were divided into control group and experimental group, with 60 cases in each group. The control group adopted the traditional posterior median approach lumbar fusion, and the experimental group adopted the percutaneous pedicle screw internal fixation guided by the C-arm system. The operation time, bleeding, operation cost, visual analog score (VAS) and activities of daily living (ADL) and complication rate were compared and analyzed between the two groups. Measurement data with normally distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation( ± s), and the comparison between groups was performed by two independent samples t test. The comparison between groups of count data was performed by chi-square test. Results:The operation time, the blood loss, the cost, VAS, ADL score, the complication rate of the control group were (119.83 ± 10.96) min, (90.56±30.52) mL, (4.90±0.75) ten thousand yuan, (4.17±0.64) scores, (78.11±12.78) scores and 30%, while the experimental group were (103.50±13.76) min, (73.88±40.35) mL, (4.06 ± 0.97) ten thousand yuan, (2.40±0.49) scores, (86.00±8.86) scores and 5%, respectively, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Application of mobile C-arm X-ray system in thoracolumbar spine minimally invasive surgery can reduce the probability of complications, improve the quality of life of patients, and accelerate the rehabilitation. It is valuable for popularization.
RESUMEN
Objective To compare the clinical effects of G-arm X-ray machine and C-arm X-ray machine in percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) of thoracolumbar spine.Methods The clinical data of ninety-five patients with thoracolumbar OVCF treated with PKP from May 2016 to August 2017 in Yanan University Affiliated Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.They were divided into two groups according to the different guiding fluoroscopy methods used during the operation.Forty-six cases in G arm group completed PKP under the guidance of G arm X-ray machine,Forty-nine cases in C arm group completed PKP under the guidance of C arm X-ray machine.The operation time,fluoroscopy times,cement leakage cases,the height of injured vertebral leading edge,Cobb angle of kyphosis,visual analogue score and Oswestry dysfunction index were recorded before and after operation,and the related indexes were analyzed and compared.Results Two groups of patients were successfully completed surgery,no complications of vascular and nerve injury.The operation time and fluoroscopy times in G arm group were less than those in C arm group (operation time:(29.6±4.5) min vs.(42.5±5.3) min,and fluoroscopy times in G arm group:(9.1±2.0) vs.(16.9±3.2));the difference was statistically significant (t =-12.747,12.870,P＜ 0.01).Postoperative height of injured vertebral leading edge(G arm group (22.3±5.3) mm),C arm group (22.4±5.1) mm),kyphosis Cobb angle (G arm group (9.2±3.8)°,C arm group (9.3±3.7) o),visual analogue score (G arm group (2.1±0.7)points,C arm group (2.2±0.9) points),Oswestry dysfunction index (G arm group (21.3±8.5) points,C arm group(21.5 ± 8.3)points),compared with preoperative(the hight of injured vertebral leading edge of G arm group (18.2 ±5.3) mm,C arm group (18.4±5.2) mm,Cobb angle of injured vertebra G arm group (15.7±4.4) °,C arm group (15.9±4.3) °,visual analogue score of G arm group (7.8± 1.2) points,C arm group (7.7± 1.1) points,Oswestry dysfunction index score of G arm group(41.2±8.3)points,C arm group (41.5±8.2) points),the difference was statistically significant (t =-3.709,-3.844,-7.582,-8.144,27.827,27.088,11.360,11.999,P＜0.01),but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P ＞0.05).Conclusion Using G-arm X-ray machine to assist PKP in the treatment of thoracolumbar spine OVCF can effectively shorten the operation time,reduce the intraoperative fluoroscopy time,and the clinical effect is satisfactory.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the clinical application value of percutaneous kyphoplasty ( PKP ) under the guidance of G arm X ray machine in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF). Methods The medical records of eighty-two patients (94 vertebral bodies) with OVCF treated with PKP were collected retrospectively. Thirty-nine cases ( 44 vertebral bodies ) were guided by G-arm X-ray machine to implement PKP,which were recorded as G-arm group. Forty-three cases (50 vertebral bodies) were guided by C-arm X-ray machine to carry out PKP,which were recorded as C-arm group. The operation time, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, bone cement leakage cases, preoperative and postoperative anterior height of injured vertebrae,Cobb angle of injured vertebrae,visual analogue scale scores and Oswestry disability index of the two groups were recorded. Results There was significant difference in operation time and intraoperative fluoroscopy times between the G-arm group and C-arm group (the operation time:(31. 6±5. 2) vs. (45. 8±6. 7) min,the intraoperative fluoroscopy times: (9. 5±2. 3) times vs. (18. 7±3. 5) times,t=-10. 64,-13. 91,P<0. 05) ,while there was no significant difference in the number of bone cement leakage ( P>0. 05) . Compared postoperative and preoperative anterior height of injured vertebrae, Cobb angle of injured vertebrae, visual analogue scale scores and Oswestry disability index scores of G-arm group and C-arm group respectively, the differences were significant ( t=-3. 41 vs. -3. 28, 6. 67 vs. 7. 66, 26. 63 vs. 25. 75 and 10. 41 vs. 11. 90, P<0. 05). There was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0. 05). Conclusion The treatment of OVCF with PKP guided by G-arm X-ray machine could significantly shorten operation time, reduce the intraoperative fluoroscopy times and the operative difficulty,and increase operation safety than PKP guided by traditional C-arm X-ray machine.
