Abstract Background To evaluate the mid-long term outcomes of surgical management of mono-segmental lumbar and lumbosacral spinal tuberculosis (TB) by one-stage posterior debridement, titanium mesh cage bone grafting and single-segment fixation. Methods A total of 62 patients with mono-segmental lumbar or lumbosacral spinal tuberculosis were enrolled. One-stage posterior debridement, titanium mesh cage bone grafting and single-segment fixation was performed. Clinical and radiographic outcomes were compared and analyzed. Results All patients were followed up for an average of 75.0 ± 11.5 months and completely cured at the final follow-up. C-reactive protein (CRP) and Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) returned to normal within three months postoperatively. Postoperative Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score, visual analog scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability index (ODI) were significantly improved compared with preoperative values. Bony fusion occurred after an average of 9.8 ± 2.6 months. The lordosis angle and lumbosacral angle were increased from preoperative 20.4 ± 2.9° and 14.7 ± 3.4°to postoperative 32.8 ± 3.6° and 22.4 ± 5.5°, with the angle loss of 1.0 ± 0.7° and 0.8 ± 0.7° at the final follow-up, respectively. No significant differences between preoperative and postoperative adjacent segment disc height (DH) were found. Conclusions one-stage posterior debridement, titanium mesh cage bone grafting and single-segment fixation can be an effective and feasible treatment option for mono-segmental lumbar and lumbosacral spinal tuberculosis in adults. It may preserve lumbar normal motor units and decrease adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) with the advantages of minimally invasion and rapid postoperative rehabilitation.

Abstract Background Many types of bone grafting have been reported for successful use in achieving anterior column support and bone fusion after one stage posterior debridement in the treatment of lumbar spinal tuberculosis. However, none-structural bone grafting has rarely been studied. This study was aimed to identify the feasibility of none-structural bone grafting from comparing the advantages and disadvantages with structural bone grafting in the treatment of lumbar spinal tuberculosis. Patients and methods We retrospectively reviewed patients with lumbar spinal tuberculosis who had undergone none-structural (n=27) and structural (n=22) bone grafting after single-stage posterior debridement and instrumentation with at least 24 months of follow-up. Plain radiographs, magnetic resonance imaging, and computed tomography scans, as well as health-related outcomes, including Visual Analog Scale for back pain, the Oswestry Disability Index were collated before surgery and at follow-up. Results Both none-structural and structural bone grafting were associated with significant improvements in quality of life parameters, the laboratory tests and the Cobb angle of local kyphosis. A slight loss of Cobb angle correction was in both two groups, without any associated complications. The operation duration and blood loss in none-structural bone grafting group was significantly less. The bone fusion rate was higher in structural bone grafting group. There were three complications in the none-structural bone grafting and four complications in the structural bone grafting group; the incidence of complications between the two groups was not significantly different. Conclusions Based on single-stage posterior debridement and pedicle screws fixation, none-structural bone grafting can achieve anterior column support with reducing surgical trauma, simplifying surgical procedure and decreasing intraoperative hemorrhage, but the lower rate of grafted bone fusion should be taken into consideration when choosing the aforementioned method.

Abstract Background Many types of bone grafting have been reported for successful use in the treatment of lumbar spinal tuberculosis. However, none-structural bone grafting has rarely been studied. This study was aimed to identify the clinical efficacy of nonstructural with structural bone graft for interbody fusion in the surgical treatment of single segment lumbar tuberculosis after one stage posterior debridement.Methods We retrospectively reviewed patients with nonstructural (n=27) and structural (n=22) bone grafting after single-stage posterior debridement and instrumentation for lumbar tuberculosis with at least 24 months of follow-up. Plain radiographs, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography scans, and health-related outcomes (e.g., Visual Analog Scale for back pain, the Oswestry Disability Index) were collected and analyzed before and after surgery. Results Both nonstructural and structural bone grafting were associated with significant improvements in the life quality parameters, the laboratory tests, and the Cobb angle of local kyphosis. A slight loss of Cobb angle correction was observed in two groups. Nonstructural bone grafting exhibited the advantages of less operation duration, blood loss and lower bone fusion rate compared with structural bone grafting. There were three complications in the nonstructural bone grafting and four complications in the structural bone grafting group, with no significant difference between two groups.Conclusions In conclusion, nonstructural bone grafting can achieve comparable interbody fusion to structural bone grafting but has less surgical trauma and simpler surgical procedure than structural bone grafting in the treatment of single segment lumbar tuberculosis after one stage posterior debridement and pedicle screws fixation.

Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of single posterior debridement, bone grafting, and instrumentation for the treatment of thoracic spinal tuberculosis of adult patients. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 88 adult patients with thoracic spinal tuberculosis between June 2013 and September 2017. All patients were treated with single posterior debridement, bone grafting and instrumentation. The clinical manifestations and laboratory and imaging results of the approach were subsequently analysed. Results: All patients were followed up for 40.6 ± 4.1 m (range, 36–48 m). Bony fusion was achieved in all bone grafts. The VAS scores, ESR, and CRP levels 6 weeks after operation and at the final follow-up were significantly lower than the preoperative levels (P<0.05). The postoperative and final-follow-up kyphosis angles were both significantly smaller than the pre-operative kyphosis angles (P<0.05). The postoperative angle correction rate reached 81.5%, and the postoperative angle loss only reached 4.1%. At the last follow-up, ASIA improvement was significant compared with the preoperative levels (P<0.05). Conclusion: The single posterior approach can achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes in the treatment of thoracic spinal tuberculosis.

Abstract Objective To explore the clinical effect of single posterior debridement, bone grafting, and instrumentation and single anterior debridement, bone grafting and instrumentation in the treatment of thoracic spinal tuberculosis of adult patients. Methods: A retrospective analysis was made by involving 38 adult patients with thoracic spinal tuberculosis from between June 2013 and December 2015. Of the 38 patients, 21 patients were categorized in single anterior approach group and underwent single posterior debridement, bone grafting, and instrumentation (Group A). The remaining 17 patients were classified in single posterior approaches group (Group B), which received single posterior debridement, bone grafting and instrumentation. Clinical manifestations, laboratory and imaging results of the two groups were analyzed subsequently. Results: All patients were followed up for 23.9 ± 3.8 m (range, 19–36 m). Bony fusion was achieved in all bone grafts. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss in group B were significantly less than those in group A (P<0.05). The VAS scores, ESR, and CRP levels 6 weeks after operation and at the final follow-up were significantly lower than the preoperative levels (P<0.05). At the last follow-up, ASIA improvement no significant difference between groups (P>0.05). Furthermore, the postoperative and final-follow-up kyphosis angles in group B were both significantly smaller than those in group A (P<0.05). Group A had a postoperative angle correction rate smaller than group B, and its postoperative angle loss was greater than group B’s (P<0.05). Conclusion: Single posterior debridement, bone grafting, and instrumentation can achieve similar curative effect as single anterior debridement, bone grafting and instrumentation in the treatment of thoracic spinal tuberculosis, but also accompanied by additional advantages of shorter operation time and less bleeding .

AbstractThe aim of this study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of single posterior debridement, bone grafting and instrumentation for the treatment of thoracic spinal tuberculosis in adult patients. A retrospective analysis was conducted between June 2013 and September 2017of 88 adult patients with thoracic spinal tuberculosis. All patients were treated with single posterior debridement, bone grafting and instrumentation. The clinical manifestations and laboratory and imageological results were subsequently analysed. All patients were followed for 40.6 ± 4.1 months (range, 36–48 m). Bony fusion was achieved in all bone grafts of thoracic vertebrae. The visual analogue scale scores, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein levels 6 weeks after surgery and at the final follow up were significantly lower than the preoperative levels (P < 0.05). The postoperative and final follow up kyphosis angles were both significantly smaller than the preoperative kyphosis angles (P < 0.05). The postoperative angle correction rate reached 81.5% and the postoperative angle loss reached only 4.1%. At the last follow up, American Spinal Injury Association improvement was significant, compared with the preoperative levels (P < 0.05). The single posterior approach can achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes in the treatment of thoracic spinal tuberculosis.
