Neurological outcome following delayed fixation of unstable thoracolumbar spinal injuries with short segment posterior fixation.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the improvement in neurological deficit following late decompression and stabilization of the fractured thoracolumbar spine. METHODS Between January 2001 and August 2004 neurological recovery in 120 thoracolumbar fractures was studied after posterior stabilization at the Hospital for Bone & Joint Surgery, Srinagar, India. There were 88 male and 32 female patients. Fall f...
متن کاملPosterior short-segmental fixation combined with intermediate screws vs conventional intersegmental fixation for monosegmental thoracolumbar fractures.
Posterior short-segmental fixation is reliable for the management of thoracolumbar fractures; however, it is associated with recurrence of kyphosis and failure of fixation. This study compared the short-term results of short-segmental fixation combined with intermediate screws with those of conventional intersegmental fixation in the treatment of monosegmental thoracolumbar fractures. The recor...
متن کاملFactors predicting long-term outcome after short-segment posterior fixation for traumatic thoracolumbar fractures
BACKGROUND The "gold standard" for instrumentation of unstable thoracolumbar fracture-dislocations is pedicle screw and rod fixation. Although traditional treatment supports long-segment posterior fixation (LSPF), more recent studies show short-segment posterior fixation (SSPF) may be effective, but incur higher failure rates. Here, we evaluated the effectiveness of SSPF in the management of un...
متن کاملThoracolumbar injuries : short segment posterior instrumentation as standalone treatment – thoracolumbar fractures
Objective: This research paper reports on the radiographic outcome of unstable thoracolumbar injuries with short segment posterior instrumentation as standalone treatment; in order to review rate of instrumentation failure and identify possible contributing factors.
متن کاملThoracolumbar Vertebral Injuries with Neurological Deficit Treated with Posterior Decompression, Short Segment Pedicle Screw Fixation, and Interlaminar Fusion
Study Design Prospective clinical study. Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of interlaminar fusion and short segment pedicle screw fixation on thoracolumbar vertebral injuries for preventing pain and post-traumatic kyphosis. Overview of Literature The treatment of thoracolumbar injuries continues to be one of the most controversial areas in spine care. The main aim...
