Osteoporotic burst fracture-clinical, radiological and functional outcome of three-column reconstruction using single posterior approach (Instrumentation, Corpectomy, Arthroscope Assisted Transpedicular Decompression and Mesh Cage).

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate a novel effective procedure utilizing three-column reconstruction via a posterior approach with a technique that utilizes an arthroscope to visualize the anterior surface of the dura during decompression.

Methods

A Prospective Study. 80 Osteoporotic vertebral burst fracture patients with similar demographic data managed by three-column reconstruction through single posterior approach surgery: Pedicle screw fixation, Corpectomy, Arthroscope Assisted Transpedicular Decompression (AATD) and Fusion (Mesh Cage + Bone grafting). Preoperative and postoperative clinical parameters (Visual Analog Score VAS, swestry Disability Index ODI, neurlogy, radiological parameters and surgical variables were recorded analysed.

Results

No significant differences in dem
