Osteosíntesis cervical posterior con placa en lesiones cervicales

Abstract

El propósito del presente estudio es analizar retrospectivamente los resultados a largo plazo de las lesiones de la columna cervical baja tratadas mediante estabilización posterior con placas atornilladas de Roy-Cmille a las masas laterales. Pacientes y métodos: Se estudian 15 pacientes, de los cuales sólo 14 completos con lesiones traumáticas (13) y 1 no traumática (1 paciente con inestabilidad sobre artrosis por doble Cloward) durante un periodo postoperatorio medio de 8 años (6-12). Salvo 1 paciente con fractura del cuerpo del cuerpo vertebral, el resto tenían lesiones del arco posterior (luxaciones uni o bilaterales, fracturas-luxaciones, fractura separación de la masa lateral y esguinces graves). En todos se practicó osteosíntesis posterior con placas atornilladas a las masas laterales o parte más convexa del proceso articular inferior, según técnica de Roy-Camille. Para evitar complicaciones vasculares y nerviosas la técnica debe ser exacta. La valoración radiológica se hizo mediante radiografías laterales dinámicas en 4 grupos, según protocolo de Roy-Camille. Resultados: El examen radiológico funcional no mostró pérdida de corrección en lesiones del arco posterior (13 pacientes). En un caso de lesión del cuerpo vertebral se produjo cifosis secundaria, precisando retirar el material por dolor. La rigidez vertebral es menor cuando se fija un solo segmento. Conclusiones: Los resultados sugieren que es una excelente técnica de estabilización cervical posterior en lesiones traumática o no traumáticas inestables de la columna cervical, especialmente cuando se asocian lesiones altas y bajas.

The purpose of the present study is to retrospectively assess the long-term clinical outcome of patients with instable lesions of the lower cervical spine treated by internal fixation with Roy-Camille plates and screws on the lateral masses. Patients and methods: Fifteen patients (14 traumatic and 1 non traumatic) with instability who had internal fixation by plates and screws of Rody-Camille were studied. Except for 1 patient who had flexion fracture of the vertebral body, the remainder suffered lesions of the vertebral arc (uni-or bilateral dislocation, fracture-dislocation, separation-fracture of the lateral mass and major ligament sprains). The technique must be accurate to avoid vascular and nervous complications. Results: There was a strong association between clinical outcome and the final radiographic grade, according to Roy-Camille grading scale. The dynamic assessment of the lateral cervical radiographs showed an excellent result in all the lesions of the vertebral arc (13 patients studied). One case of vertebral body fracture had a bad result with flexion deformity, pain and need for material removal. Conclusions: the findings of the present clinical study suggest that the posterior cervical stabilization for unstable arc lesions, whether traumatic or not, is a excellent solution, specially when upper and lower lesions are associated.
