  • Clinical effect of robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery and non-surgical treatment in patients presenting thoracolumbar fracture with a Thoracolumbar Injury Classification and Severity Score of four

    Objective To analyze the clinical effect of TINAVI robotic system-assisted pedicle screw internal fixation for thoracolumbar fracture with a Thoracolumbar Injury Classification and Severity Score (TLICS) of 4. Methods A total of 38 patients with TLICS 4 thoracolumbar fracture treated between January 2019 and January 2021 who met the selection criteria of Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences & Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the results of doctor-patient communication, 18 cases were treated with robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (robot group), and 20 cases were treated with traditional conservative treatment (non-surgical group). Complications during hospitalization were observed. After discharge, the patients in the two groups were followed up by telephone and outpatient clinic. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score at admission, at discharge, and 3 and 6 months after discharge, and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score 3 and 6 months after discharge were compared between the two groups. Results There were no statistically significant difference in age, sex, body mass index or distribution of injured vertebrae segment between the two groups (P>0.05). No serious complication occurred in any group during hospitalization. The difference in the length of hospital stay between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The bed rest in the robot group was shorter than that in the non-surgical group [(4.83±0.92) vs. (43.05±2.70) d, P<0.05]. The VAS scores at discharge (2.50±0.51 vs. 5.05±1.00), 3 months after discharge (1.83±0.71 vs. 3.10±0.72) and 6 months after discharge (1.50±0.51 vs. 1.90±0.79) in the robot group were lower than those in the non-surgical group (P<0.05). The ODI scores 3 months after discharge (21.89±1.41 vs. 30.40±3.00) and 6 months after discharge (10.72±2.37 vs. 12.10±2.29) in the robot group were significantly lower than those in the non-surgical group (P<0.05). Conclusion For patients with TLICS 4 thoracolumbar fracture, the early clinical effect of robot-assisted surgical treatment is better than that of non-surgical treatment.
