Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of 3D-printed fusion cage implantation in treating cervical spondylotic myelopathy.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 52 patients with single-segment cervical spondylotic myelopathy who received anterior cervical discectomy and fusion in Affiliated Hospital of Beihua University from July 2019 to July 2022. They were divided into the 3D group and the control group. Afterward, the perioperative indicators were compared between the two groups. Meanwhile, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores, Visual analogue scale (VAS) and neck disability index (NDI) were recorded pre-operation and one-year post-operation. Evaluate the fusion rate of two group of intervertebral fusion cages.
Results: The JOA score and NDI of the two groups of patients were significantly improved compared to pre-operation(P<0.05), and the JOA score, JOA score improvement rate, and NDI of the 3D group were better than the control group (P<0.05), the VAS scores were significantly improved compared to pre-operation(P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference between the groups (p >0.05). The intervertebral height, angle, and cervical Cobb angle of the two groups of patients were significantly improved compared to pre-operation (P<0.05), and the improvement of intervertebral height, angle, and cervical Cobb angle in the 3D group was better than the control group(P<0.05).
Conclusion: The clinical efficacy of 3D printed intervertebral fusion cage placement in the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy may be reliable, and it would be better than traditional intervertebral fusion cages in maintaining the height, angle, cervical Cobb angle, and fusion rate of the intervertebral space.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
