Correlation between MRI and DTI parameters in acute thoracic spinal cord injury and clinical outcomes: A prospective observational study
Study design
Prospective Observational Study.
Objective
The current study aims to explore the correlation of MRI and DTI parameters in acute thoracic spinal cord injuries for prediction of neurological outcomes.
Setting
University level tertiary care hospital of Northern India.
Methods
Conventional MRI and DTIs were performed for 51 acute thoracic spinal cord injury patients. The relationship of MRI and DTI parameters with preoperative and postoperative AIS motor and sensory scores in complete and incomplete neurological deficit groups were done. AIS score, AO PROST Score and ODI score was used for neurological and functional assessment of spinal cord functions. Patients were divided into group I (ASIA A) and Group II (ASIA B, C, D). MRI and DTI parameters were compared between groups for their predictive value on neurology at admission and at final follow up.
Results
Out of 20 patients in group I, 3 patients recovered by grade 1 and 6 patients by grade 2 and no recovery in 11 patients. In group II out of 31 patients 10 patients (33.4 %) recovered to ASIA E neurology. On Univariate analysis MOCC, SCC, Length of Cord swelling, LOE, Distortion index, Type of injury and Hematomyelia were significantly associated with complete neurological deficit at presentation. However, on final follow up, MOCC, SCC, Length of cord edema, and Hematomyelia were significant in predicting neurology.
Conclusion
Maximum osseous canal compromise, Spinal Cord Compression, Length of Edema, Length of Spinal cord swelling, and hematomyelia are best correlated with prediction of a neurological deficit. DTI also provides superior spinal cord imaging but faces technical challenges.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics and Trauma (JCOT) aims to provide its readers with the latest clinical and basic research, and informed opinions that shape today''s orthopedic practice, thereby providing an opportunity to practice evidence-based medicine. With contributions from leading clinicians and researchers around the world, we aim to be the premier journal providing an international perspective advancing knowledge of the musculoskeletal system. JCOT publishes content of value to both general orthopedic practitioners and specialists on all aspects of musculoskeletal research, diagnoses, and treatment. We accept following types of articles: • Original articles focusing on current clinical issues. • Review articles with learning value for professionals as well as students. • Research articles providing the latest in basic biological or engineering research on musculoskeletal diseases. • Regular columns by experts discussing issues affecting the field of orthopedics. • "Symposia" devoted to a single topic offering the general reader an overview of a field, but providing the specialist current in-depth information. • Video of any orthopedic surgery which is innovative and adds to present concepts. • Articles emphasizing or demonstrating a new clinical sign in the art of patient examination is also considered for publication. Contributions from anywhere in the world are welcome and considered on their merits.
