摘要
目的探讨C_2椎弓根拉力螺钉治疗Hangman骨折的适应证,并评估其疗效。方法1998年2月~2000年12月共收治Hangman骨折患者22例。经颅骨牵引有10例骨折获得解剖复位但不稳定,对其中椎体结构完整的8例进一步施行了3.5mmC2椎弓根拉力螺钉内固定。男6例,女2例;年龄18~42岁,平均28.2岁。Levine-EdwardsⅠ型5例,Ⅱ型2例,Ⅱa型1例。脊髓功能FrankelD级2例,E级6例。患者全麻后俯卧于预制好的头-颈-胸石膏床腹片上,取后正中切口,暴露C1~C3后方结构。取C2侧块中点为进钉点,根据C2椎弓根的内缘和上缘走行确定进钉方向,一般为向头端倾斜25°~30°,向中线倾斜30°~35°。应用测深器确定螺钉长度,一般为25~30mm。所有操作均在“C”型臂X线机透视下完成。结果手术平均时间70min。未发现术后的早期和晚期并发症,神经功能恢复正常,所有骨折均在术后3个月愈合,颈椎活动范围接近正常,未出现C2,3的脱位和拉力螺钉的松动。结论C2椎弓根拉力螺钉技术可使Hangman骨折获得良好的即刻复位,通过骨块间加压恢复C2,3节段的稳定性。其适应证应限于骨折可复位的病例。
Objective To define the indications of direct transpedicular lag screw to treat traumatic spondylolisthesis of axis (Hangmans fracure) and to evaluate the result of the technique. Methods From February 1998 to December 2000, 22 patients with acute traumatic spondylolisthesis of axis were treated. Ten of them achieved anatomic reduction by skull traction but no acceptable stability was ensured by traction alone. Among the ten patients, eight had integral and normal shaped C2 vertebral bodies (6 male, 2 female; age ranged from 18 to 42 years with an average of 28.2 years; 5, 2 and 1 patients classified as type Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅱa injuries respectively according to Levine-Edwards classification and graded as D spinal injury in 2 cases and E in 6 cases according to Frankel scale) were further fixed with transpedicular lag screw. Under general anesthesia, the patients were laid in prostrate decubitus in a prepared head-neck-chest ventral plaster plate with skull traction in place to maintain reduction and lateral image intensification was applied to confirm the reduction. A posterior midline incision from C1-C3 was performed, and soft tissue was released to expose clearly the lamina, lateral mass, superior and medial aspect of the C2 pars interarticularis (isthmus plus pedicle). Points of entry for screw insertion were located at the entrance at the posterior aspect of lateral mass. The drill bit is parallel to both of the medial and superior border of C2 pars interarticularis (usually 25°-30° cephalad to the transverse plane and 30°-35° medial to the sagittal plane). The screw hole in the posterior cortex was overdrilled with a 3.5 mm drill bit for interfragmentary compression. 3.5 mm screws (25-30 mm, determined by depth gauge) were drived in after the cortex being tapped with a 3.5 mm tap. The whole procedure was done under monitoring of 'C' arm fluoroscopy for safety and accuracy. Results It costs an average of 70 minutes to finish the procedure with mean blood loss of 250 ml. Hospital stay was about 18 days. A mean follow up time of 14 months (11 to 18 months) didnt confirm any early or late postoperative complications, all cases gained bony union 3 months later with complete neurological function recovery. The range of neck rotation was restored normal with no C2,3 instability or screw loosing found. Conclusion With appropriate indications, transpedicular lag screw fixation provides good reduction and stability to Hangmans fracture. This technique can only be applied to the fractures which are reductable.
