[Therapeutic effects of anterolateral decompression and fixation on thoracolumbar fractures complicated with incomplete paraplegia].
Objective: To investigate the clinical effects of anterolateral decompression and fixation on thoracolumbar fractures complicated with incomplete paraplegia.
Methods: Thirty-six patients with thoracolumbar fractures complicated with incomplete paraplegia were treated with anterolateral decompression and fixation.
Results: The patients were followed up for an average of 18 months, which showed satisfactory recovery of the intervertebral space height and thoracolumbar vertebral curvature. The average Cobb's angle, spinal canal index and Frankel were improved remarkably, and none of the patients developed such complications as break or mobilization of the plate screw.
Conclusion: Anterolateral decompression and fixation can directly and completely decompress the vertebral canal, promote the functional recovery of the spinal nerves and reconstruct the alignment of the spine as an ideal approach for treatment of thoracolumbar fractures with obvious spinal canal-occupying lesions or severe kyphos complicated with incomplete paraplegia.
