AbstractFusion with a titanium mesh cage (TMC) has become popular as a conventional method after cervical anterior corpectomy, but postoperative TMC subsidence has often been reported in the literature. We designed a novel anatomic cervical TMC to reduce the postoperative subsidence rate. According to the test process specified in the American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM) F2267 standard, three-dimensional finite element analysis was used to compare the anti-subsidence characteristics of a traditional TMC (TTMC) and novel TMC (NTMC). Through analysis, the relative propensity values of a device to subside (Kp) of the TTMC and NTMC were 665.5 N/mm and 1007.2 N/mm, respectively. A higher Kp measurement is generally expected to indicate that the device is more resistant to subsidence into a vertebral body. The results showed that the novel anatomic titanium mesh cage (NTMC) significantly improved the anti-subsidence performance after anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF), which was approximately 51.3% higher than that of the traditional titanium mesh cage.

Spinal Infections

Pyogenic vertebral osteomyelitis (PVO) is still a rare pathology. However, its incidence is on the rise. This is due to an increasing population with predisposing factors. Also, the availability of more effective diagnostic tools has brought it increasingly to the surgeon’s attention. In this study the patients were treated in the Neurosurgery Division of the Department of Neurological Sciences and Psychiatry of the Sapienza University of Rome, between 2001 and 2009. They had thoracolumbar pyogenic spondylitis. This study was undertaken in order to identify the correct diagnostic and therapeutic treatment needed in such cases. From the cases studied here, it is evident that spinal infections can be extremely insidious and that diagnosis tends to be reached late. Surgery, along with the antibiotic treatment, allows for eradication of the causes of the pathology by the reclamation of the affected region. Surgery is also fundamental in helping to recover vital functions and in restoring as much as possible the correct curvature of the rachises. The use of an anterolateral approach is dictated by the necessity of obtaining 360° stability as well as by the need to clear away extensive infections, which are not always reachable using a posterior approach.

SummaryIn this case report, we describe the use of a cylindrical titanium mesh cage combined with cancellous bone graft to surgically manage large segmental bone defects in a dog. A seven-year-old, neutered male cross-breed dog, with highly comminuted fractures of the right femur and the left radius and ulna, was referred for treatment. Previous open reduction and internal fixation of these fractures had failed. Following implant removal and debridement of each bone, a 71 mm segmental femoral defect and a 27 mm segmental radial defect were present. A commercially available cylindrical titanium mesh cage was filled with ß-tricalcium phosphate crystals mixed with an equal volume of autogenous cancellous bone graft. The mesh cage was aligned with the proximal and distal parts of each bone using an intramedullary pin passing through the cage, and a locking plate was applied to the proximal and distal fracture fragments to produce compression against the titanium cage. The dog had a successful long-term clinical outcome, and radiographic examination at 22 and 63 weeks after surgery showed the formation of remodelling bridging callus that was continuous across the titanium cage in each of the fractures. Due to the relative simplicity of the technique and the favourable outcome in this case, it should be considered an option when managing comminuted fractures with large bone defects.

Purpose. This study was to report the clinical use of biomimetic nanohydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 (n-HA/PA 66) mesh cages in anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) surgery.Method. 95 patients who underwent single level anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion for cervical spondylosis myelopathy (CSM) in our hospital were reviewed and divided into 2 groups according to using nanohydroxyapatite/polyamide mesh cage and titanium mesh cage (TMC). Demographic data of patients and surgical, clinical, and radiological data before operation and at last follow-up were collected and compared.Result. The operation time, surgical blood loss, complications, and Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores (JOA scores) of two groups were similar. At the last follow-up both the two groups obtained 100% solid bone fusion, but the TMC group had higher rate of severe cage subsidence than the n-HA/PA 66 group (27% versus 2%).Conclusion. Nanohydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 mesh cage is safe and effective in ACCF and can be a substitution to titanium mesh cage.
