摘要
目的：本研究旨在利用影像学指标对相邻颈椎单位之间的椎间隙形态进行量化和评估，以帮助脊柱外科医生在中国人群中开展颈椎椎间盘切除和融合术（ACDF）前路手术：方法：评估受试者的背景和影像学参数。采用颈椎侧位片测量椎间高度（IH）、椎间高度指数（IHI）和节段前凸（SL）。通过矢状位 T2 加权磁共振成像（MRI）测量终板参数，包括终板矢状位直径（ESD）和终板凹陷深度（ECD）。所有患者被分为三个年龄组：20-35 岁为 A 组，36-50 岁为 B 组，50 岁以上为 C 组。此外，还对男性和女性的这些放射学参数进行了比较：结果：共有 102 人参与了这项研究。与其他节段水平相比，C6/7 的 IH 更大（P本研究发现，在无症状的中国人中，C6/7 的 IH、SL、ESD 和 ECD 值最大。SL从C3/4到C6/7水平逐渐增加。IH和ESD与年龄明显相关。男性的 IH 值和 ESD 值高于女性。这些发现为选择前路螺钉和椎间植入物的计划提供了基础信息。
Sagittal morphometry of intervertebral spaces in subaxial cervical region of asymptomatic Chinese.
Purpose: This study aimed to quantify and evaluate morphology of intervertebral space between neighboring cervical units using radiographic imaging indices, to help spine surgeons when performing anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) surgery on the Chinese population.
Methods: The background and imaging parameters of the subjects were assessed. Cervical lateral radiographs were employed to measure the intervertebral height (IH), intervertebral height index (IHI), and segmental lordosis (SL). Endplate parameters measurements were conducted on sagittal T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), including endplate sagittal diameter (ESD), and endplate concavity depth (ECD). All individuals were divided into three age groups: individuals aged 20-35 were in group A, individuals aged 36-50 were in group B, and individuals aged over 50 were in group C. A comparison of the variables was conducted among the three groups. Additionally, these radiographic parameters were also compared between males and females.
Results: A total of 102 individuals were included in this study. IH was greater at C6/7 than those at other segmental levels (p < 0.001). The largest SL values were found at C6/7, while the least were found at C3/4. The superior ESD (ESDs) and ECD (ECDs) of the intervertebral space were significantly greater than those of the inferior endplates (p < 0.05). The ESD and ECD values were the largest at C6/7, while the least at C3/4. Additionally, age and gender had an influence on several parameters. IH was significantly lower in group A compared to group B (p < 0.05) and group C (p < 0.05) from C3/4 level to C6/7 level. ECDs were lower in group A compared to group B (p < 0.05) and group C (p < 0.05) at each level. IH and ESD in males were generally significantly greater than those in females at all levels (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The current study found that C6/7 had the greatest IH, SL, ESD, and ECD values in asymptomatic Chinese. SL gradually increased from C3/4 to C6/7 levels. IH and ECD were significantly associated with age. Males had greater IH and ESD values than females. These findings provide baseline information for planning for selection of anterior screws and intervertebral implants.
期刊介绍：
"European Spine Journal" is a publication founded in response to the increasing trend toward specialization in spinal surgery and spinal pathology in general. The Journal is devoted to all spine related disciplines, including functional and surgical anatomy of the spine, biomechanics and pathophysiology, diagnostic procedures, and neurology, surgery and outcomes. The aim of "European Spine Journal" is to support the further development of highly innovative spine treatments including but not restricted to surgery and to provide an integrated and balanced view of diagnostic, research and treatment procedures as well as outcomes that will enhance effective collaboration among specialists worldwide. The “European Spine Journal” also participates in education by means of videos, interactive meetings and the endorsement of educative efforts.
