Cohort study.
To analyze long-term clinical and radiological outcomes of surgically treated Scheuermann patients.
Long-term clinical and radiological outcomes of surgery for Scheuermann kyphosis are unknown. A single-center cohort of 33 consecutive, surgically treated (between 1991 and 1998) Scheuermann patients was studied.
Clinical and radiological data of 29 surgically treated Scheuermann patients were collected (posterior approach n = 13; combined anterior-posterior procedure n = 16), after a mean follow-up of 18 years. Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores were measured preoperatively (PRE) and twice postoperatively: 2 to 8 years postoperative (FU 1) and 14 to 21 years postoperative (FU 2). Visual Analog Score pain, Short Form-36 (SF-36), and EQ-5d scores were recorded at FU 2 only. Radiographs were analyzed for correction, distal and proximal junctional kyphosis, and implant failures.
Mean preoperative kyphosis of the corrected levels was 76° (range 60°-105°) and decreased to a Cobb of 58°(range 30°-105°) at FU 2. Median Visual Analog Score was 2.5 points (range 0-8) and median ODI score was 12 (range 0-62) at FU 2. The ODI score at FU 1 was significantly better as compared to PRE (P < 0.001) and FU 2 (P < 0.001). Also, anterior-posterior treated group had a significantly better ODI score as compared to the posterior-only group (P = 0.023). EQ-5d scores on mobility, usual activities, and pain/discomfort were worse compared to an age-matched population control group; however, SF-36 outcome scores were comparable.Proximal junctional kyphosis was present in 53% of patients, distal junctional kyphosis did not occur, and implant failure/removal had occurred in 69% of patients. Radiological complications do not relate with the ODI, EQ-5d, and SF-36 and 72% of the patients were satisfied.
Radiological results of this cohort were disappointing but did not relate to clinical outcome scores. Even lumbar pain could not prevent a high patient satisfaction and quality of life. Patients treated with a combined anterior-posterior approach tended to perform better.
队列研究。
分析接受手术治疗的休门病患者的长期临床和影像学结果。
休门病后凸畸形手术的长期临床和影像学结果尚不清楚。对一个单中心队列中连续33例(1991年至1998年间)接受手术治疗的休门病患者进行了研究。
收集29例接受手术治疗的休门病患者的临床和影像学数据(后路手术n = 13;前后联合手术n = 16),平均随访18年。术前(PRE)及术后两次测量奥斯威斯利功能障碍指数(ODI)评分:术后2至8年(FU 1)和术后14至21年(FU 2)。仅在FU 2时记录视觉模拟评分疼痛、简明健康状况调查量表(SF - 36)和EQ - 5d评分。分析X线片以评估矫正情况、远端和近端交界性后凸畸形以及植入物失败情况。
矫正节段术前平均后凸畸形为76°(范围60° - 105°),在FU 2时降至Cobb角58°(范围30° - 105°)。FU 2时视觉模拟评分中位数为2.5分(范围0 - 8),ODI评分中位数为12(范围0 - 62)。FU 1时的ODI评分与PRE相比显著更好(P < 0.001),与FU 2相比也显著更好(P < 0.001)。此外,前后联合治疗组的ODI评分与单纯后路组相比显著更好(P = 0.023)。与年龄匹配的人群对照组相比,EQ - 5d在活动能力、日常活动以及疼痛/不适方面的评分更差;然而,SF - 36结果评分具有可比性。53%的患者存在近端交界性后凸畸形,未发生远端交界性后凸畸形,69%的患者发生了植入物失败/取出。影像学并发症与ODI、EQ - 5d和SF - 36无关,72%的患者表示满意。
该队列的影像学结果令人失望,但与临床结局评分无关。即使存在腰痛也并未妨碍患者的高满意度和生活质量。接受前后联合手术治疗的患者往往表现更好。
