To evaluate the three-dimensional (3D) characteristics of spine deformity in patients with non-idiopathic scoliosis compared with those observed in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).
A retrospective chart review was conducted to identify patients with non-idiopathic scoliosis. Twenty-eight patients with neural axis (NA) abnormalities (Chiari 1, syrinx) and 20 patients with connective tissue disorder (CTD) (Marfan's, Beal's, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, mixed) were identified. The 3D parameters of the coronal, sagittal, and axial plane were compared with 284 AIS patients with a similar range of coronal deformity.
The average coronal curve was similar between all three groups (AIS 48 ± 15°, CTD 43 ± 22°, and NA 49 ± 18°; p = 0.4). The NA patients had significantly greater 3D thoracic kyphosis (20 ± 18° vs 10 ± 15°, p = 0.001) and less thoracic apical vertebral rotation (- 5 ± 18° vs - 12 ± 10°, p = 0.003) when compared with AIS. The CTD group's 3D thoracic kyphosis (p = 0.7) and apical vertebral rotation (p = 0.09) did not significantly differ from AIS. Significant negative correlations were found in all three groups between thoracic kyphosis and coronal curve magnitude (AIS r = - 0.49, CTD r = - 0.772, NA r = -0.677, all p < 0.001).
Scoliotic patients with NA abnormalities have a more kyphotic, less-rotated 3D profile than patients with AIS, while scoliosis patients with CTD have 3D features similar to AIS. Irrespective of the underlying diagnosis, however, greater scoliotic curves were associated with a greater loss of intersegmental kyphosis, suggesting a similar biomechanical pathophysiology for curve progression.
评估非特发性脊柱侧弯患者脊柱畸形的三维(3D)特征,并与青少年特发性脊柱侧弯(AIS)患者的特征进行比较。
进行一项回顾性病历审查以确定非特发性脊柱侧弯患者。识别出28例患有神经轴(NA)异常(Chiari 1型、脊髓空洞症)的患者和20例患有结缔组织疾病(CTD)(马凡氏综合征、Beal综合征、埃勒斯-当洛综合征、混合型)的患者。将冠状面、矢状面和轴面的3D参数与284例冠状面畸形范围相似的AIS患者进行比较。
所有三组患者的平均冠状面曲线相似(AIS 48±15°,CTD 43±22°,NA 49±18°;p = 0.4)。与AIS患者相比,NA患者的3D胸椎后凸明显更大(20±18°对10±15°,p = 0.001),胸椎顶椎旋转更小(-5±18°对-12±10°,p = 0.003)。CTD组的3D胸椎后凸(p = 0.7)和顶椎旋转(p = 0.09)与AIS患者相比无显著差异。在所有三组中,胸椎后凸与冠状面曲线大小之间均存在显著负相关(AIS r = -0.49,CTD r = -0.772,NA r = -0.677,均p < 0.001)。
与AIS患者相比,患有NA异常的脊柱侧弯患者具有更后凸、旋转更少的3D形态,而患有CTD的脊柱侧弯患者具有与AIS相似的3D特征。然而,无论潜在诊断如何,更大的脊柱侧弯曲线与节段间后凸的更大丧失相关,提示曲线进展存在相似的生物力学病理生理学。
