Tratamiento quirúrgico en las cifosis congénitas: Revisión de 14 pacientes

Abstract

Los autores efectúan una revisión de 14 pacientes con cifosis congénita, intervenidos entre los años 1979-1989, con un seguimiento medio de 7 años. La edad media preoperatoria fue de 11 años (todos ellos mayores de 5 años), con una cifosis media de 7 9 . En 6 casos se realizó una artrodesis posterior y en 8 una anterior combinada con una fusión posterior. Inicialmente obtuvieron una corrección media de la curva de 18° con la artrodesis posterior y 20° con la artrodesis combinada. La pérdida postoperatoria final fue de 10° y 8° respectivamente. En un caso, se produjo una pseudoartrosis por fusión corta. Como complicaciones postoperatorias en 5 pacientes, una radiculopatía, una infección superficial y cuatro protusiones de material que requirieron su extracción. Los autores analizan los factores que han podido influir en los resultados obtenidos, comparándolos posteriormente con los conseguidos por otros centros hospitalarios importantes.

Fourteen patients with congenital kyphosis treated surgically between 1979- 1989 were reviewed. All had a follow-up of 2 years or more, with an average follow-up of 7 years. The average age at surgery was 11 and the average kyphosis was 79°. Six cases had posterior fusion only and eigth had combined anterior and posterior fusion. The results showed an average correction of the curve at surgery of 18° with posterior arthrodesis and 20° with combined arthrodesis. There was thus an average loss of 10° and 8° respectively from the time of surgery in both types of treatment. Pseudoarthrosis by short fusion ocurred in one case. Other complications after surgery were 1 radiculopathy, one wound infection and four rod protusion (six patients). The factors that have influence in this results were analysed. A comparison from the results of treatment at other medical centers was also carried out.
