腰椎弹性固定进展研究

对于腰椎退变和不稳的治疗,传统方法是采用后路减压、椎弓根螺钉固定同时行植骨术(僵硬固定)。然而,僵硬固定存在加速周围椎体的退变等缺点。因而,人们逐步把目光投向腰椎弹性固定。最近几年,腰椎弹性固定因具有利于应力分散,防止周围节段退行性变,降低应力遮挡等优点,越来越多地被用于临床。大多数临床资料显示相较于传统坚强固定,弹性固定疗效相当,而固定节段骨萎缩、骨质疏松以及邻近节段退变的发生率显著降低,更利于脊柱生理特性。该文就腰椎弹性固定的发展过程、各种类型弹性固定的工作原理以及临床效果等作一综述。     

Biomechanical Study on the Novel Biomimetic Hemi-Pelvis Prosthesis

A pelvic endoprosthesis is the primary means of pelvic reconstruction after internal hemipelvectomy. In this study, a novel biomimetic hemipelvic prosthesis, including an artificial ilium, an artificial acetabulum, and an artificial pubis, was developed. A Finite Element Method （FEM） was carried out to investigate the biomechanical performance of a pelvis reconstructed with biomimetic hemipelvic prosthesis. Two models, including the reconstructed pelvis and the original pelvis （control model）, were established according to the geometry from CT data of a human male patient with pelvic bone sarcomas. The FE models predict that the biomeehanical function of the pelvic ring can be reestablished using this prosthesis. Results show that the body force loaded on the S 1 vertebra is restored and transferred towards the sacro-iliac joint, and along the ilium onto the bearing surface of the artificial ilium, then to the artificial acetabulum and pubis. Von Mises stresses observed in this reconstructed pelvis model are still within a low and elastic range below the yielding strength of cortical bone and Ti6A14V. The values of deformation and strain of the reconstructed pelvis are close to the data obtained in the original pelvis. With the partial replacement of the pubis, little influence is found towards the pubis symphysis. However, the interface between the prosthesis and pelvic bone may become the critical part of the reconstructed pelvis due to the discontinuity in the material properties, which results in stress shielding and deformation constraining. So a biomimetic flexible connection or inter layer to release the deformation of pelvis is suggested in future designing.     

椎旁肌退变与短节段腰椎融合内固定术后螺钉松动的相关性分析

摘要 目的：分析椎旁肌退变与短节段腰椎融合内固定术后螺钉松动的相关性。方法：回顾性分析2018年6月至2020年6月广州市番禺区中医院行短节段腰椎融合内固定术治疗的251例腰椎退行性疾病患者的临床资料，根据术后螺钉松动情况分为松动组（n=47）和对照组（n=204）。收集患者的临床资料，对比两组椎间植骨融合情况、螺钉直径、螺钉长度、螺钉椎内长度、椎旁肌的肌肉相对总横截面积（rtCSA）和脂肪浸润程度（FI）。应用多因素logistic回归分析短节段腰椎融合内固定术后螺钉松动发生的危险因素，并描绘受试者工作特征（ROC）曲线检验危险因素预测短节段腰椎融合内固定术后螺钉松动的效能。结果：251例患者平均随访时间（24.16±7.28）个月，其中47例患者在最终随访时发生螺钉松动，总体松动率18.73%。两组性别、骨密度比较差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。与对照组相比，松动组的多裂肌FI增高（P＜0.05）。与对照组相比，松动组的竖脊肌rtCSA减少，竖脊肌FI增高（P＜0.05）。多因素logistic回归分析显示竖脊肌FI较高是短节段腰椎融合内固定术后螺钉松动发生的独立危险因素，而竖脊肌rtCSA较高、骨密度较高则是保护因素（P＜0.05）。ROC曲线分析显示：骨密度、竖脊肌rtCSA、竖脊肌FI等3指标单独及联合应用时：ROC-AUC（0.95CI）分别为0.708（0.446～0.971）、0.736（0.495～0.951）、0.648（0.335～0.965）、0.842（0.719～0.957）。联合应用预测效能较高。结论：竖脊肌的退变是短节段腰椎融合内固定术后螺钉松动的危险因素。当骨密度＜-3.00 g/cm²、竖脊肌rtCSA＜1.45%及FI＞35.00%时，提示术后发生螺钉松动的可能性大，可作为短节段腰椎融合内固定术后评价螺钉松动风险的参考指标。

Finite Element Analysis of Minimal Invasive Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion

The purpose of our study is to develop and validate three-dimensional finite element models of transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion, and explore the most appropriate method of fixation and fusion by comparing biomechanical characteristics of different fixation method. We developed four fusion models: bilateral pedicle screws fixation with a single cage insertion model (A), bilateral pedicle screws fixation with two cages insertion model (B), unilateral pedicle screws fixation with a single cage insertion model (C), and unilateral pedicle screws fixation with two cages insertion model (D); the models were subjected to different forces including anterior bending, posterior extension, left bending, right bending, rotation, and axial compressive. The von Mises stress of the fusion segments on the pedicle screw and cages was recorded. Angular variation and stress of pedicle screw and cage were compared. There were differences of Von Mises peak stress among four models, but were within the range of maximum force. The angular variation in A, B, C, and D decreased significantly compared with normal. There was no significant difference of angular variation between A and B, and C and D. Bilateral pedicle screws fixation had more superior biomechanics than unilateral pedicle screws fixation. In conclusion, the lumbar interbody fusion models were established using varying fixation methods, and the results verified that unilateral pedicle screws fixation with a single cage could meet the stability demand in minimal invasive transforaminal interbody fusion.     

Biomechanical effects of posterior pedicle fixation techniques on the adjacent segment for the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures: a biomechanical analysis

Abstract

Posterior pedicle fixation technique is a common method for treating thoracolumbar burst fractures, but the effect of different fixation techniques on the postoperative spinal mechanical properties has not been clearly defined, especially on adjacent segments. A finite element model of T10-L2 with moderate T12 vertebra burst fracture was constructed to investigate biomechanical behavior of three posterior pedicle screw fixation techniques. Compared with traditional short-segment 4 pedicle screw fixation (TS-4) and intermediate long-segment 6 pedicle screw fixation (IL-6), mono-segment 4 pedicle screw fixation (MS-4) provides a safer surgical selection to prevent the secondary degeneration of adjacent segments in the long-term.     

Finite element analysis of a hemi-pelvis: the effect of inclusion of cartilage layer on acetabular stresses and strain

An appropriate method of application of the hip-joint force and stress analysis of the pelvic bone, in particular the acetabulum, is necessary to investigate the changes in load transfer due to implantation and to calculate the reference stimulus for bone remodelling simulations. The purpose of the study is to develop a realistic 3D finite element (FE) model of the hemi-pelvis and to assess stress and strain distribution during a gait cycle. The FE modelling approach of the pelvic bone was based on CT scan data and image segmentation of cortical and cancellous bone boundaries. Application of hip-joint force through an anatomical femoral head having a cartilage layer was found to be more appropriate than a perfectly spherical head, thereby leading to more accurate stress–strain distribution in the acetabulum. Within the acetabulum, equivalent strains varied between 0.1% and 0.7% strain in the cancellous bone. High compressive (15–30 MPa) and low tensile (0–5 MPa) stresses were generated within the acetabulum. The hip-joint force is predominantly transferred from the acetabulum through the lateral cortex to the sacroiliac joint and the pubic symphysis. The study is useful to understand the load transfer within the acetabulum and for further investigations on acetabular prosthesis.

A new reconstruction of Sts 14 pelvis (Australopithecus africanus) from computed tomography and three-dimensional modeling techniques

The purpose of this study is to propose a new reconstruction of the australopithecine Sts 14 pelvis from original fossils. Digital models created from CT images allow us to perform mirroring operations, select valid regions after digital interposition, and reassemble parts. The key-element of the reconstruction is the sacroiliac joint, restored from right and left articular surfaces, which places of the pubic symphysis close to the sagittal plane. The complete pelvis is obtained by 3D model mirroring of hip-bone and sacrum. The present reconstruction of the Sts 14 pelvis is consistent with Schmid's (1983) [Folia Primatol. 40, 283-306, 1983] and Häusler and Schmid's A.L. 288-1 [J. Hum. Evol. 29, 363-383, 1995] pelvic reconstructions by illustrating a relatively platypelloid shape of the pelvic cavity and laterally inclined iliac blades. The pelvic morphology suggests that australopithecines had a less posteriorly tilted sacrum in erect posture than modern humans. As compared with Lovejoy's [Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. Suppl. 50, 460, 1979] A.L. 288-1 pelvic reconstruction, the less transversely flattened shape of the Sts 14 pelvic cavity led to obstetrical mechanics characterized as in humans by ante-ischiatic birth and a curved trajectory. We deduce a human-like movement of rotation and flexion of the fetal skull in the Sts 14 pelvic cavity.
