目的 观察盐酸氨基葡萄糖治疗腰椎小关节骨关节炎的临床疗效。 方法 2010年9月－2012年5月门诊就诊的160例腰椎小关节骨关节炎患者随机分为两组进行治疗，对照组80例，口服非甾体抗炎药物尼美舒利；试验组80例，在服用尼美舒利的基础上加服盐酸氨基葡萄糖，治疗周期为2周。对两组患者治疗前及治疗后1、2周后日常生活能力、视觉疼痛模拟、心理测评（采用症状自评量表检测）3项指标进行检测，比较两组的临床疗效，并对患者进行3个月随访。 结果 两组患者各指标检测结果显示，治疗后较治疗前均明显改善，试验组明显优于对照组；总有效率试验组为97.3%，对照组为86.1%，试验组明显优于对照组，组间比较差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。 结论 盐酸氨基葡萄糖联合尼美舒利治疗腰椎小关节骨关节炎具有较好的临床疗效。
【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the surgical management of rigid post-traumatic thoracolumbar kyphosis (RPTK) by simultaneous posterio-anterior circumferential releasing, correction and anterior corpectomy with preserved posterior vertebral wall. Methods Twenty patients with RPTK were treated between October 2004 and October 2010 by posterior releasing, anterior subtotal corpectomy with preserved posterior vertebral wall, correction, strut graft, and short segmental fixation. There were 14 males and 6 females with an average age of 43.2 years (range, 23-63 years). The time between injury and operation was 4 months to 23 years (mean, 1.4 years). The affected locations were T11 in 1 case, T12 in 8 cases, L1 in 10 cases, and L2 in 1 case. The Cobb angle and the intervertebral height of the fractured vertebra body were measured before and after operations. The degrees of low back pain were assessed by Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores. Results No incision infection, nerve injury, or cerebral spinal fluid leakage occurred. Seventeen patients were followed up 1-5 years with an average of 2.8 years. The JOA score at last follow-up (26.2 ± 3.9) was significantly improved when compared with the pre-operative score (14.0 ± 5.7) (t=4.536, P=0.001). One patient had aggravation of kyphosis at 3 months postoperatively, who was in stabilized condition after prolonging immobilizated time. The Cobb angle was corrected from (43.2 ± 11.5)° preoperatively to (9.8 ± 5.7)° at last follow-up, showing significant difference (P lt; 0.01). There was significant difference in the intervertebral height of the fractured vertebra body between preoperation and last follow-up (P lt; 0.05). The intervertebral height of fractured vertebra was restored to 87.0% ± 11.2% of adjacent disc height. Conclusion Posterio-anterior circumferential releasing and anterior corpectomy with preserved posterior vertebral wall can achieve satifactory clinical results, not only in pain relieving, kyphosis correction, vertebral height restoration, and spinal stability restoration, but also in the risk reduce of bleeding and spinal cord disturbance.
