Closing-opening wedge osteotomy for thoracolumbar traumatic kyphosis
BACKGROUND Surgical treatment modalities for post-traumatic kyphosis (PTK) remain controversial. Like vertebral column resection, closing-opening wedge osteotomy (COWO) can achieve satisfactory results for kyphosis with multiple etiologies. However, few studies have assessed this procedure for PTK. Our purpose was to evaluate the radiographic and clinical outcomes of COWO in a selected series o...
متن کاملPedicle-sparing transforaminal thoracic spine wedge osteotomy for kyphosis correction
BACKGROUND Correction of a focal kyphotic deformity at times requires performing a pedicle subtraction osteotomy, which is accompanied by loss of pedicles as anchor points at the affected level in addition to significant blood loss. To help alleviate these two issues, a novel osteotomy technique for correction of kyphosis using a transforaminal approach to the thoracic vertebral body is describ...
متن کاملPedicle subtraction osteotomy and disc resection with cage placement in post-traumatic thoracolumbar kyphosis, a retrospective study
BACKGROUND It is estimated that upwards of 50,000 individuals suffer traumatic fracture of the spine each year, and the instability of the fractured vertebra and/or the local deformity results in pain and, if kyphosis increases, neurological impairment can occur. There is a significant controversy over the ideal management. The purpose of the study is to present clinical and radiographic result...
متن کاملPedicle subtraction osteotomy for correction of severe thoracolumbar kyphosis in ankylosing spondylitis.
Introduction Ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a chronic inflammatory arthritis, primarily involves the axial skeleton and results in severe thoracolumbar kyphotic deformity. Treating AS-related kyphotic deformity typically involves one or more posterior wedge osteotomies and manipulation of the position of the spine by forceful manual extension to close them. Several types of osteotomy are availabl...
متن کاملPedicle subtraction osteotomy for rigid post-tuberculous kyphosis.
We studied 15 patients with healed tuberculosis of the spine and a resultant kyphosis. We selected only those with no neurological deficit and performed a wedge resection of the vertebra using a transpedicular approach. The wedge was removed from the apex of the deformity. For those with a neurological deficit, we chose the conventional anterior debridement and decompression with 360 degrees ci...
