Hydatid Disease of the Cervical Spine Mimicking Traumatic Burst Fracture
Background & Importance: Hydatid disease of the spine is rare but constitutes approximately 50% of bone involvement cases in human hydatidosis. It is a severe condition associated with a high rate of morbidity, disability and mortality. Case Presentation: In the present paper, we report an intriguing case of cervical spinal hydatid disease mimicking traumatic burst fracture. Con...
متن کاملOperative Compared with Nonoperative Treatment of a Thoracolumbar Burst Fracture without Neurological Deficit
Methods: From 1992 to 1998, forty-seven consecutive patients with a stable thoracolumbar burst fracture and no neurological deficit were evaluated and randomized to one of two treatment groups: operative treatment (posterior or anterior arthrodesis) or nonoperative treatment (a body cast or orthosis). We previously reported the results of follow-up at an average of forty-four months. The curren...
متن کاملShort segment screw fixation without fusion in treatment for unstable thoracolumbar burst fracture.
This study aims to evaluate clinical efficacy of short segment pedicle screw fixation without bone fusion for unstable thoracolumbar burst fracture. Nineteen patients younger than 40 years old with unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures were included. The surgical procedure included postural reduction for 3 days and screw fixations at one level above, one level below and at the fractured level ...
متن کاملComparison of short-segment versus long-segment fixation for the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fracture: a meta-analysis
Background: Thoracolumbar burst fracture is one of the most common spinal traumas. It was still indeterminate whether short-segment (SS) fixation was more effective and preferable than long-segment (LS) fixation. We therefore conducted this meta-analysis to assess the comparative safety and efficacy of SS and LS fixation for the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fracture. Methods: A literature s...
متن کاملOperative management of unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures.
Operative management of unstable burst vertebral fractures is challenging and debatable. This study of such cases was conducted at the Aga Khan Hospital, Karachi from January 1998 to April 2003. All surgically managed spine injuries were reviewed from case notes and operative records. Clinical outcome was assessed by Hanover spine score and correction of kyphosis was measured for radiological a...
