We investigated the number of degenerated neurons in spinal roots of rabbits after spinal surgery to test if electrocauterization causes neuronal loss. The number of degenerated neurons was higher in study group than in control group, and the number of live neurons was higher in control group than in study group. These results suggest that electrocauterization applied during spinal surgery is hazardous to spinal neurons and should not be applied unless required.
我们研究了兔脊柱手术后脊神经根中退变神经元的数量,以测试电灼是否会导致神经元丢失。研究组中退变神经元的数量高于对照组,而对照组中存活神经元的数量高于研究组。这些结果表明,脊柱手术中应用的电灼对脊髓神经元有害,除非必要,不应使用。
