  • Accuracy analysis and clinical application of the progressive navigation template system to assist atlas-axial pedicle screw placement

    ObjectiveTo investigate the accuracy of progressive three-dimensional navigation template system (abbreviated as progressive template) to assist atlas-axial pedicle screw placement. MethodsThe clinical data of 33 patients with atlas-axial posterior internal fixation surgery between May 2015 and May 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different methods of auxiliary screw placement, the patients were divided into trial group (19 cases, screw placement assisted by progressive template) and control group (14 cases, screw placement assisted by single navigation template system, abbreviated as initial navigation template). There was no significant difference in gender, age, cause of injury, damage segments, damage types, and preoperative Frankel classification between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time and intraoperative blood loss of the two groups were compared. The safety of screw placement was evaluated on postoperative CT by using the method from Kawaguchi et al, the deviation of screw insertion point were calculated, the angular deviation of the nailing on coordinate systems XOZ, XOY, YOZ were calculated according to Peng’s method. ResultsAll patients completed the operation successfully; the operation time and intraoperative blood loss in the trial group were significantly less than those in the control group (t=–2.360, P=0.022; t=–3.006, P=0.004). All patients were followed up 12–40 months (mean, 25.3 months). There was no significant vascular injury or nerve injury aggravation. Postoperative immediate X-ray film and CT showed the dislocation was corrected. Postoperative immediate CT showed that all 76 screws were of grade 0 in the trial group, and the safety of screw placement was 100%; 51 screws were of grade 0, 3 of gradeⅠ, and 2 of gradeⅡ in the control group, and the safety of screw placement was 91.1%; there was significant difference in safety of screw placement between the two groups (χ2=7.050, P=0.030). The screw insertion point deviation and angular deviation of the nailing on XOY and YOZ planes in the trial group were significantly less than those in the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in angular deviation of the nailing on XOZ between the two groups (t=1.060, P=0.290). ConclusionCompared with the initial navigation template, the progressive navigation template assisting atlas-axial pedicle screw placement to treat atlas-axial fracture with dislocation, can reduce operation time and intraoperative blood loss, improve the safety of screw placement, and match the preoperative design more accurately.

  • Effectiveness analysis of three-dimensional printing assisted surgery for unstable pelvic fracture

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of three-dimensional (3D) printing assisted internal fixation for unstable pelvic fractures.MethodsThe clinical data of 28 patients with unstable pelvic fractures admitted between March 2015 and December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups according to different surgical methods. Eighteen cases in the control group were treated with traditional anterior and posterior open reduction and internal fixation with plate; 10 cases in the observation group were treated with 3D printing technology to make pelvic models and assist in shaping the subcutaneous steel plates of the anterior ring. Sacroiliac screw navigation template was designed and printed to assist posterior ring sacroiliac screw fixation. There was no significant difference between the two groups in gender composition, age, cause of injury, fracture type, and time interval from injury to surgery (P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, incision length, waiting time for weight-bearing exercise, and fracture healing time were recorded and compared between the two groups. Majeed score was used to evaluate the function at last follow-up. At immediate after operation, the reduction was evaluated according to Matta imaging scoring criteria, and the success of sacroiliac joint screw implantation in the observation group was evaluated. The deviation of screw entry point and direction between postoperative screws and preoperative simulated screws were compared in the observation group.ResultsAll the operation was successfully completed, and all patients were followed up 6-18 months (mean, 14.4 months). In the control group, 1 case had wound infection and 2 cases had deep vein thrombosis. No serious complication such as important blood vessels, and nerve injury and pulmonary embolism occurred in other patients in the two groups. No screw pulling out or steel plate breaking occurred. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fluoroscopy times, incision length, and waiting time for weight-bearing exercise of the control group were significantly more than those of the observation group (P<0.05); there was no significant difference in fracture healing time between the two groups (t=0.12, P=0.90). There was no significant difference in reduction quality between the two groups at immediate after operation (Z=–1.05, P=0.30); Majeed score of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group at last follow-up (Z=–2.42, P=0.02). The success rate of sacroiliac joint screw implantation in the observation group reached category Ⅰ. In the observation group, the deviation angle of the direction of the screw path between the postoperative screw and the preoperative simulated screw implant was (0.09±0.22)°, and the deviation values of the entry points on the X, Y, and Z axes were (0.13±0.63), (0.14±0.58), (0.15±0.53) mm, respectively. There was no significant difference when compared with those before the operation (all values were 0) (P>0.05).ConclusionComputer design combined with 3D printing technology to make personalized pelvic model and navigation template applied to unstable pelvic fractures, is helpful to accurately place sacroiliac screw, reduce the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and the fluoroscopy times, has good waiting time for weight-bearing exercise and function, and it is an optional surgical treatment for unstable fractures.

  • Application of fenestration rammer in thoracolumbar burst fracture

    Objective To observe and evaluate the clinical effect of the new fenestration rammer in the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fracture by posterior internal fixation and reduction of lamina with finite fenestration decompression. Methods Patients with thoracolumbar burst fractures admitted to Zigong Fourth People’s Hospital between September 2017 and January 2020 were retrospectively selected. The patients were divided into observation group and control group according to different surgical methods. The observation group used a new tamping device with finite fenestration rammer of unilateral lamina to reduce the spinal occupying bone mass, and the control group used conventional instruments for reduction of intraspinal fracture masses. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, CT measurement of sagittal diameter ratio of spinal canal and the number of cases of postoperative vertebral empty shell phenomenon were recorded in the two groups, and Frankel grading evaluation of spinal nerve function was conducted. Results A total of 67 patients were included. There were 33 cases in the observation group and 34 cases in the control group. The patients in both groups were followed up for 12 to 16 months, with an average of (14.45±2.25) months. The improvement rate of Frankel rating in each group was 100%. In the control group and the observation group, except for the sagittal diameter ratio of spinal canal before operation (P=0.616), the operation time [(150.44±26.47) vs. (120.91±20.86) min], the intraoperative blood loss [(244.41±42.97) vs. (183.33±34.56) mL], the sagittal diameter ratio of spinal canal one week after operation [(92.50±2.32)% vs. (93.72±2.40)%], the sagittal diameter ratio of spinal canal at the last follow-up [(91.50±2.96)% vs. (93.17±3.27)%] and the occurrence of empty shell phenomenon (13 vs. 5 cases) were statistically significant (P<0.05). The intragroup comparison showed that the sagittal diameter ratio of spinal canal was improved one week after operation and at the last follow-up compared with that before operation (P<0.05), there was no significant difference in the sagittal diameter ratio of spinal canal between one week after operation and the last follow-up (P>0.05). Conclusions The new fenestration rammer can effectively reduce the spinal occupying bone mass in thoracolumbar burst fracture, effectively restore the volume of the spinal canal, achieve the purpose of decompression, effectively prevent the formation of vertebral shell, maximize the retention of the stable structure of the posterior column, and avoid iatrogenic nerve injury. It is safe and effective.

    Objective To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection of shoulder joint combined with hydraulic dilatation in the treatment of frozen shoulder in different clinical stage. Methods The clinical data of patients with frozen shoulder diagnosed in Zigong Fourth People’s Hospital from January 2020 to January 2021 were collected retrospectively. The patients were divided into three groups according to the clinical stage of frozen shoulder (stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ). All patients volunteered to receive ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection of shoulder joint combined with hydraulic dilatation for 3 consecutive times, with a 2-week interval for each treatment, and followed up for 6 months. Before treatment and 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 2 months, 4 months and 6 months after treatment, the patients were scored with Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Active Range of Shoulder Motion (AROM), and the capsule thickness of shoulder were measured, respectively. Results A total of 150 patients were included, including 61 patients in stage Ⅰ, 74 patients in stage Ⅱ and 15 patients in stage Ⅲ. The thickness of shoulder joint capsule on the affected side was thicker than that on the healthy side (t=24.384, P<0.001). After treatment, the thickness of shoulder joint capsule and VAS score decreased (P<0.05), and the AROM score increased (P<0.05). Before treatment, the thickness of shoulder joint capsule in stageⅡpatients was higher than that in stageⅠand Ⅲ patients [(4.3±1.0) vs. (2.9±0.5) vs. (3.1±0.4) mm; F=57.195, P<0.001]. Four weeks, 2 months, 4 months and 6 months after treatment, the decrease of shoulder joint capsule thickness was the largest in stageⅡpatients (P<0.05). Compared with stageⅡand Ⅲ patients, stageⅠpatients had the highest VAS score before treatment (7.7±0.7 vs. 5.1±0.8 vs. 4.5±0.7; F=233.560, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in VAS scores among the three groups 4 weeks (F=1.679, P=0.190), 4 months (F=1.348, P=0.263) or 6 months (F= 0.940, P=0.393) after treatment, while there were significant differences in VAS scores among the three groups 2 weeks (F=66.924, P<0.001) and 2 months (F=9.598, P<0.001) after treatment. Compared with stageⅠand Ⅲ patients, stageⅡpatients had the lowest AROM score before treatment (15.2±1.8 vs. 23.5±1.9 vs. 26.1±3.5; F=343.718, P<0.001). Four weeks (F=0.034, P=0.967), 2 months (F=0.222, P=0.801), 4 months (F=0.634, P=0.532) or 6 months (F=0.001, P=0.999) after treatment, there was no significant difference in AROM scores among the three groups, while there was significant difference in AROM scores among the three groups 2 weeks after treatment (F=177.135, P<0.001).Conclusions Ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection of shoulder joint combined with hydraulic dilation has good efficacy in the treatment of frozen shoulder in different clinical stage. Early injection treatment can shorten the course of the disease and relieve the pain of patients during the course of the disease.
