Surgical treatment of thoracic disc herniation using the anterior approach.
Between 1970 and 1980, at the National Murayama Hospital, 15 patients with thoracic disc herniation underwent total discectomy by an anterior approach, followed by interbody fusion using autogenous ifiac bone. The results in all 15 patients were favourable. The extrapleural approach to the thoracic vertebrae is preferred because of simplified postoperative care and easier prevention of respirat...
متن کاملRadiological analysis for thoracolumbar disc herniation in spinopelvic sagittal alignment
A retrospective study aims to explore differences in spinopelvic sagittal alignment between thoracolumbar disc herniation (TLD) and lower lumbar disc herniation (LLD).A total of 185 patients included 26 with TLD and 129 with LLD and 30 asymptomatic volunteers in normal group (NG). Each individual took full spine X-ray to evaluate pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), sacral slope (SS), lumba...
متن کاملAcute Paraplegia Secondary to Thoracic Disc Herniation of the Adjacent Segment Following Thoracolumbar Fusion and Instrumentation
Proximal junctional disease is a well-recognized postoperative phenomenon in adults who are undergoing long thoracolumbar fusion and instrumentation, and is attributed to increased a junctional stress concentration. In general, the onset of symptoms in these patients is insidious and the disease progresses slowly. We report on a contrary case of rapidly progressing paraplegia secondary to acute...
متن کاملAnterior decompression and fusion for multiple thoracic disc herniation.
Multiple thoracic disc herniations are rare and there are few reports in the literature. Between December 1998 and July 2002, we operated on 12 patients with multiple thoracic disc herniations. All underwent an anterior decompression and fusion through a transthoracic approach. The clinical outcomes were assessed using the Frankel neurological classification and the Japanese Orthopaedic Associa...
متن کاملA posterolateral microsurgical approach to extreme-lateral lumbar disc herniation.
Extreme-lateral lumbar disc herniations present a surgical challenge because the conventional posterior approach requires bone resection for complete visualization of the pathology. The authors have identified constant anatomical landmarks in cadaveric dissections that facilitate access to the intervertebral foramen when combined with a posterolateral approach, as described by Watkins, for lumb...
