To assess the results of clinical approbation of individual finite-element biomechanical model of a patient’s spino-pelvic complex with subsequent modeling of the best option of surgical treatment. Material and Methods. A biomechanical modeling of changes in the sagittal profile of a patient with degenerative disease of the lumbosacral spine, bilateral spondylolysis, and unstable grade 2 spondylolisthesis of the L4 vertebra was performed. The developed biomechanical model made it possible to assess the characteristics of the stress-strain state of the spinal motion segments aroused due to development of the disease. Within the built biomechanical model of the patient’s spino-pelvic complex, a corrective operation was further modeled that assumed a preservation of harmonious profile of sagittal spino-pelvic relationships. Post-correction characteristics of the stress-strain state of spinal motion segments were studied and compared with preoperative parameters of the biomechanical model. Results. Using methods of biomechanics and computer modeling allowed to calculate the stress-strain state of the lumbosacral spine under static load for two options of fixation and intervertebral cage implantation at the L4–L5 level: four transpedicular screws (L4–L5 vertebrae) and six transpedicular screws (L3–L4–L5 vertebrae). The simulation results showed that neither metal implants, nor elements of the lumbosacral spine experienced critical stresses and deformations that could lead to the destruction and instability of the implant. Conclusion. The developed individual biomechanical finite-element solid model of the spine and pelvis allowed for biomechanical justification of prerequisites for the formation and further progression of degenerative changes in spinal motion segments associated with violations of the sagittal profile due to grade 2 spondylolisthesis of the L4 vertebra. The model built on the results of radiological examination biomechanically substantiated the best option of corrective spine surgery allowing to minimize stresses and deformations by choosing reasonable magnitude of correction of sagittal spino-pelvic parameters and configuration of transpedicular system.","PeriodicalId":37253,"journal":{"name":"Hirurgia Pozvonochnika","volume":"15 1","pages":"87-94"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48767362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To clarify indications for dynamic and rigid stabilization based on the analysis of correlation between neuroimaging parameters of facet joints (FJ) and clinical outcomes of surgical treatment of patients with degenerative diseases of the lumbar spine. Material and Methods. A total of 141 patients with degenerative diseases of the lumbar spine were surgically treated. Patients were divided into three groups: patients of Group I (n = 48) underwent surgical intervention with artificial intervertebral disc prosthesis; those of Group II (n = 42) – with interbody fusion and combined transpedicular and transfacetal stabilization; and those of Group III (n = 51) – with interbody fusion and bilateral transpedicular stabilization. The correlation between long-term clinical outcomes (pain syndrome according to VAS, functional state according to ODI, and satisfaction with surgical result according to MacNab scale) and preoperative neuroimaging parameters of FJ (degenerative changes according to Fujiwara, facet angle magnitudes, and the presence of tropism) was analyzed. Results. A direct significant nonparametric correlation of neuroimaging parameters of facet angles and FJ tropism with long-term clinical outcomes of surgical treatment according to VAS and ODI was revealed. It was established that good clinical outcomes were achieved with the following preoperative parameters: in Group I, the facet angle was less than 60°, while the presence of tropism had no correlation dependence; in Group II, the facet angle – more than 60°, in the absence of FJ tropism; and in Group III, the facet angle – more than 60°, in the presence of FJ tropism. Conclusion. Objective neuroimaging parameters of the facet angle magnitude of less than 60°, regardless of the presence of tropism, allow performing total arthroplasty. If the facet angle is more than 60°, the rigid stabilization of the operated segment is indicated; in the absence of tropism, a contralateral transfacetal fixation is possible, and in its presence – a bilateral transpedicular stabilization is reasonable.","PeriodicalId":37253,"journal":{"name":"Hirurgia Pozvonochnika","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66675656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Material and Methods. A total of 9 patients (4 men, 5 women) with mucopolysaccharidosis were operated on for craniovertebral stenosis in 2012–2017. All patients underwent clinical examination, standard radiography of the cervical spine with functional tests to assess atlantooccipital stability according to Rothman, and MRI to determine the degree of the spinal cord compression, stenosis of the spinal canal, and changes in soft tissues surrounding the spinal canal due to fibrosis and accumulation of glycosaminoglycans. Maximum stenosis at the C0–C2 level was noted in 5 patients, at C1–C2 in 2, at C2–C4 in 1, and at C0–C1 in 1. Myelopathy in the upper cervical spine was detected in five cases. The overall somatic and functional statuses, as well as neurological parameters were assessed. Follow-up examination and X-ray examination were performed at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery, and further every 6 months. Results. The average follow-up period was 2.5 years. The age of the patients varied from 1.8 to 34 years. After 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery, instrumentation was radiologically stable in all cases, there were no bone resorption signs around the elements of instrumentation. Seven patients showed a regression of neurologic symptoms and positive dynamics in the somatic status according to the assessment scales. In one patient, the neurological status remained unchanged. In one case, a temporary deterioration in the condition was noted after a failed intubation attempt, which required emergency tracheostomy, and operation was postponed to a later date to stabilize the condition. Complications after surgical treatment were observed in five patients. In one case, pseudoarthrosis, rod fracture, and instrumentation instability developed 1.5 years after the intervention, and revision surgery was required. Wound healing problems were observed in three patients and a liquorrhea in the early postoperative period, which was stopped without revision intervention – in one case. Conclusion. Decompression and stabilization in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis should be performed in advance, before any neurological disorder development. Fixation is required to prevent the development of instability, post-laminectomy deformities, and progression of cicatricial stenosis. Timely initiation of enzyme-replacement therapy improves the results of mucopolysaccharidosis treatment.","PeriodicalId":37253,"journal":{"name":"Hirurgia Pozvonochnika","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66675839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
