ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of posterior closed-open wedge osteotomy for treatment of congenital kyphosis in children.METHODS:
Imaging and clinical data from January 2010 to December 2019 of posterior closed-open wedge osteotomy of congenital kyphosis with at least 2-year follow up was analyzed retrospectively. Perioperative indicators such as operation time, osteotomy site, osteotomy method and occurrence of complications, and imaging indicators were observed. The 3D printed models were used to measure the expanded distance of anterior edge vertebra and closed length of spinal canal line. The clinical effect was evaluated through SRS-22 questionnaires.RESULTS:
There were 15 CK patients in this study. The osteotomy segments and details are as follows 1 case each for T6-9 and L2, 2 cases at T11, 3 cases at T12, and 6 cases at L1. The average operation time was 314 min, the average blood loss was 970 mL, the average fusion range was 6.3 segments, and the average time of follow up was 70.5 months. The Cobb angle of local kyphosis was corrected from 65.6 ± 18.8° to 11.3 ± 7.1°(p < .001). The range of kyphosis correction was 40-90°, and average correction rate was 83.2% (67.7-95.7%). The correction was stable in follow-up, and the kyphotic angle was 11.0 ± 7.6 (p = .68). The preoperative SVA was 31.5 ± 21.8 mm, and the postoperative recovery was 18.0 ± 15.5, while the last follow-up was 9.1 ± 7.9. The p values were 0.02 and 0.07 respectively. By using 3D printed models, the expanded distance of anterior edge vertebra and closed length of spinal canal line were 14.5 ± 7.5 mm and 24.5 ± 8.0 mm respectively. Self-image and satisfaction in SRS-22 improved significantly. There was no recurrence of deformity and junctional kyphosis.CONCLUSIONS:
The posterior closing-opening wedge osteotom for treatment of congenital kyphosis in children is satisfactory, if selected appropriately. During the longitudinal follow-up, the patients could achieve solid fusion and the correction could be well maintained.Evidence of Confidence IVa.Palavras-chave
