A four-dimensional (4D) anatomical spinal reconstruction (ASR) technique and anatomical notch-free, pre-bent rods have been developed for thoracic adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) surgery. We aimed to evaluate the outcomes of ASR using notch-free rods through multiple comparisons with conventional methods, including the simultaneous double-rod rotation technique (SDRRT) and ASR using manually bent notched rods. Three consecutive series of 126 patients who underwent surgery for Lenke 1 AIS curves were prospectively followed up for 2 years after surgery. The operative time was significantly shorter in the ASR using notch-free rods group than in the other two groups (P < 0.05). The correction rate of the main thoracic (MT) curve was higher in the ASR group than in the SDRRT group (P < 0.01). Thoracic kyphosis (TK) was greater in the ASR using notch-free rods group than in the other two groups at the final follow-up (P < 0.01). The percentage of patients with a T6-T8 location of the TK apex was greater in the ASR using notch-free rods group than in the SDRRT group at the final follow-up (P < 0.01). ASR using notch-free rods created an anatomical TK, contributing to a shorter operative time and standardization of the procedure.
一种用于青少年特发性脊柱侧凸(AIS)手术的四维(4D)解剖学脊柱重建(ASR)技术以及无切口、预弯棒已被研发出来。我们旨在通过与传统方法(包括同步双棒旋转技术(SDRRT)以及使用手动弯曲带切口棒的ASR)进行多次比较,来评估使用无切口棒的ASR的效果。对连续三组共126例行Lenke 1型AIS曲线手术的患者术后进行了为期2年的前瞻性随访。使用无切口棒的ASR组的手术时间明显短于其他两组(P < 0.05)。ASR组主胸弯(MT)的矫正率高于SDRRT组(P < 0.01)。在末次随访时,使用无切口棒的ASR组的胸椎后凸(TK)大于其他两组(P < 0.01)。在末次随访时,使用无切口棒的ASR组TK顶点位于T6 - T8的患者百分比高于SDRRT组(P < 0.01)。使用无切口棒的ASR可形成解剖学上的TK,有助于缩短手术时间并使手术过程标准化。
