Posterior wedge osteotomy and debridement for Andersson lesion with severe kyphosis in ankylosing spondylitis
BACKGROUND Andersson lesion is a well-known complication in ankylosing spondylitis. Recently, owing to the worry about the healing of fracture, some scholars advocated additional anterior surgery or other procedures were necessary, which increase the risk of the nerve injury. The purpose of this study is to introduce our experience and to explore the efficacy and feasibility of posterior wedge ...
متن کاملSurgical Treatment of Angular Pott’s Kyphosis with Posterior Approach, Pedicular Wedge Osteotomy and Canal Widening
BACKGROUND It has been observed that the correction of severe posttuberculous angular kyphosis is still a challenge, mainly because of the neurologic risk. METHODS Nine patients were reviewed after surgery (mean follow-up 18 months). There were 2 thoracic, 4 thoraco-lumbar and 3 lumbar kyphosis. The mean age at surgery was 23. Clinical results were evaluated by the Oswestry Disability Index (...
متن کاملClosing-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 کاملRadial osteotomy for late-stage Kienböck's disease. Wedge osteotomy versus radial shortening.
We have reviewed 20 patients with stage-IIIB and stage-IV Kienböck's disease in order to examine the efficacy of two forms of radial osteotomy, namely radial wedge osteotomy and radial shortening. Lateral closing wedge osteotomies and radial shortenings were carried out on 11 and nine patients, respectively. There were no preoperative differences with respect to age, gender, and radiological st...
