Objectives: To classify and analyze the morphological patterns of vertebral body fractures and report the clinical results. Summary of literature review: There have not been many reports on the classification of vertebral body fractures and treatment results, and it remains a matter of debate. Materials and methods: Among 107 patients diagnosed with an axis fracture from 2005 to 2019, 53 patients with fracture involving the vertebral body were selected. After the exclusion of 9 patients with a history of cervical spine surgery or who were lost to follow-up, 44 consecutive patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. Patients were classified into 5 groups (coronal, sagittal, transverse, avulsion, and complex) according to the main fracture line. The demographic data, injury mechanism, discoligamentous injury, combined injury, neurological symptoms, and clinical treatment results were analyzed. Results: Patients’ average age was 61.7 years (range, 25–81 years). 24 patients were male and 20 were female. The average follow-up period was 14.2 months (range, 7–33 months). The coronal, sagittal, transverse, avulsion, and complex groups contained 5, 5,8, 7, and 19 patients, respectively. Six patients were injured by slip-down accidents, 12 patients by falling height, and 26 patients by traffic accidents. Eighteen patients were presented with a discoligamentous injury. Twenty-five patients showed a combination of fractures of cervical vertebrae and bones. Thirteen patients presented neurological symptoms. 16 patients were treated with a neck collar and 28 patients were treated with a halo-vest. Two patients eventually required surgical fusion because union was not achieved with conservative management. In the final follow-up, all neurological symptoms were resolved; however, 4 patients still complained of a mild tingling sensation in the upper extremity. Pin site infection occurred in 3 patients who were treated with a halo-vest, but it was controlled after antibiotic administration. Conclusion: Vertebral body fractures accounted for almost 50% of axis fractures in this study. Vertebral body fractures can be classified into 5 groups (coronal, sagittal, transverse, avulsion, and complex) according to the morphological pattern. Non-operative management can be a reasonable treatment option with good clinical results and bone union.","PeriodicalId":430424,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Korean Society of Spine Surgery","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122367918","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}

This study aimed to compare the effects of intervention (percutaneous vertebroplasty followed by anti-resorptive agents) and conservative treatment (PTH administration) in patients with osteoporotic vertebral fractures, as well as to investigate the optimal duration of PTH administration. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted using data of patients treated for osteoporotic vertebral fractures between January 2015 and November 2019. Treatment was selected based on the patient’s age, comorbidities, and patient’s preference after explaining the expected advantages and disadvantages of each treatment. Group C was administered PTH injections once weekly, whereas Group I underwent vertebroplasty followed by the administration of anti-resorptive agents. Radiological and clinical parameters were analyzed between two groups.Results: This study enrolled 58 patients (77 vertebrae). Group C included 24 patients (38 vertebrae) with average age of 77.50 ± 7.19 years (range, 65–85 years), average bone mineral density (BMD) of −3.39 ± 0.86 (range, −2.5 to −5.8), average follow-up period of 27.47 ± 7.60 weeks (range, 12–49 weeks). Group I included 34 patients (39 vertebrae) with an average age of 76.20 ± 8.67 years (range, 65–92 years), average BMD of −3.35 ± 0.91 (range, −2.5 to −5.1), average follow-up period of 30.82 ± 10.95 weeks (range, 16–59 weeks). There was no significant difference between the two groups in initial demographic, clinical and radiographic parameters. Group I showed significantly better clinical and radiological outcome during the last follow-up. Regarding side effects in Group C, two cases of dizziness (8.3%), nausea and vomiting (8.3%) were reported. In Group I, cement leakage was found in 26 vertebrae (66.7%), and cement leakage complications were observed in four patients (11.8%). Conclusion: Conservative treatment using PTH injection demonstrated slower pain relief and lesser suppression of vertebral height loss than vertebroplasty. However, PTH injection demonstrated a lower risk of procedure-related complications. The patient’s age, preference, and general condition with respect to the procedure’s risk should be considered when determining treatment options for osteoporotic vertebral fracture in old age.","PeriodicalId":430424,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Korean Society of Spine Surgery","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123335754","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}

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of posterior interbody fusion with a new type of pedicle screws after posterior decompression for degenerative spinal disease. Summary of Literature Review: There are no reports of surgical treatment results using the new type of pedicle screw (LumFix™) analyzed herein. We report the results of posterior interbody fusion with this new type of pedicle screw. Materials and Methods: Ten patients underwent surgical treatment for degenerative spinal disease and were followed up for at least 1 year. In all cases, fixation using pedicle screws and posterior interbody fusion were performed after posterior decompression. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores were measured before surgery, at 3 months postoperatively, and at 12 months postoperatively. Bone union was investigated through simple radiographs and computed tomography (CT) at 12 months postoperatively. In addition, blood inflammation levels and basic vital signs were investigated preoperatively and at the last follow-up. Results: In all cases, preoperative symptoms improved, and the back pain VAS improved from 7.30±1.49 preoperatively to 2.70±1.64 at 3 months postoperatively and 1.80±1.40 at the final follow-up. Leg pain was 7.40±1.17 preoperatively and 2.60±2.17 at 3 months postoperatively. At the last follow-up, it improved to 2.40±1.96 (p<0.001). The ODI improved from 28.80±4.89 preoperatively to 15.60±5.04 at 3 months postoperatively and 16.90±6.61 (p=0.002) at the final follow-up. Bone union was achieved in all cases. Inflammation levels and vital signs were within the normal range both preoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively. Conclusions: The LumFix™ pedicle screws used in this study were fused in 100% of patients with degenerative spinal diseases. No complications were observed, and the VAS of back and leg pain and ODI of the lumbar spine significantly improved. There were no abnormal findings in blood tests or vital signs, demonstrating biocompatibility. Therefore, the type of new pedicle screw analyzed in this study can be used in fusion surgery for degenerative spinal diseases.","PeriodicalId":430424,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Korean Society of Spine Surgery","volume":"240 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123100120","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}
