| Abstract | Background We aimed to analyze the clinical results of Schwab grade 4 osteotomy combined with percutaneous pedicle screws (PPS) fixation for treatment of post-traumatic thoracolumbar kyphosis (PTK). Methods Thirty four patients with PTK (group A) were included in our study. The average age was 54.9 ± 3.3 years. All patients had severe back pain with 8.6 ± 1.3 VAS scores. The affected level was T12 in 16 patients and L1 in 18 patients. The average preoperative regional kyphosis angle (RKA) was 30.7 ± 6.00. Three patients had neurological dysfunction with ASIA grade D. All patients underwent Schwab grade 4 osteotomy combined with PPS fixation. The control group (Group B) were 26 PTK patients treated with Schwab grade 4 osteotomy and open pedicle screws fixation in our institution. Results Operation time in groups A and B was 280 ± 50 min and 210 ± 30 min, respectively (P < 0.05). Estimated blood loss in groups A and B was 310 ± 70 ml and 630 ± 40 ml, respectively (P < 0.05). No cerebral spinal fluid leakage, segmental nerve function damage, and other complications observed during and after the operations in both groups. RKA, SVA, and LL improved significantly after surgery in both groups (P < 0.05). The average correction rate in groups A and B was 64.5 and 66.3% (P > 0.05). CT showed that the misplacement rate in groups A and B was 5.5 and 6.6% (P > 0.05). The average follow-up in groups A and B was 25.2 ± 7.6 months and 30.6 ± 2.7 months. No fracture and other complications were observed in both groups. Solid bone fusion was showed in all cases at 6 months follow-up. In groups A and B, all patients with preoperative neurological dysfunction recovered to ASIA grade E at the last follow-up. The VAS score of back pain improved significantly from 8.6 ± 1.3 to 1.6 ± 1.0 at the last follow-up in group A (P < 0.05), while it improved significantly from 8.3 ± 1.2 to 3.0 ± 1.1 at the last follow-up in group B (P < 0.05). VAS of back pain was better in group A than that in group B. Conclusion Schwab grade 4 osteotomy combined with percutaneous pedicle screws fixation is a minimally invasive, safe and effective method for PTK treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
