Abstract

Purpose: The need for revision fusion surgery after spinal fusion has increased. A revision rod that connects to the previous rod was newly developed for revision surgery. The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical and radiological results after spinal fusion revision surgery using revision rods. Materials and Methods: Twenty-one patients who underwent revision fusion surgery after spinal fusion in two university hospitals with minimum 1 year follow-up were reviewed. This study assessed 16 cases of adjacent-segment disease, four cases of thoracolumbar fracture, and one case of ossification of ligament flavum. The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and numerical rating scale (NRS) were evaluated as clinical outcomes, and the union rate, lordosis or kyphosis of the revision level, lumbar lordosis, T5-12 kyphosis, and proximal junctional kyphosis angle were evaluated as the radiological outcomes. Results: The average ODI was 54.6±12.5 before surgery and improved to 29.8±16.5 at the final follow-up. The NRS for back pain and leg pain was 5.0±1.7 and 6.4±2.0 before surgery, which changed to 2.9±1.6 and 2.9±2.2 at the final follow-up. Lumbar lordosis was 18.1°±11.9° before surgery and 21.1°±10.3° at the final follow-up. Proximal junctional kyphosis was 10.8°±10.1° before surgery, and 9.2°±10.5° at the final follow-up. These angles were not changed significantly after surgery. Bony union was successful in all cases except for one case who underwent posterolateral fusion. Conclusion: Revision surgery using a newly developed revision rod on the thoracolumbar spine achieved good clinical outcomes with successful bony union. No problems with the newly developed revision rod were encountered.

목적: 척추 유합술을 받은 환자 중에서 척추 유합 재수술을 받는 경우가 증가하고 있다. 척추 유합 재수술을 위해 기존 장치와 연결기를 통해 연결하여 고정술을 연장하는 revision rod를 새롭게 개발하였다. 본 연구에서는 revision rod를 이용하여 척추 유합 재수술을 시행한 후 임상적·방사선적 결과를 분석하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2개의 대학병원에서 척추 유합술 후 유합 연장술을 시행하고 최소 1년 추적관찰이 가능했던 21명의 환자가 포함되었다. 진단명은 인접 분절 병증 16명, 흉요추 골절 4명, 황색인대골화 1명이었다. 임상 결과는 Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)와 수치평가척도(numerical rating scale, NRS)로 평가하였고, 방사선 결과는 요추 전만각, 흉추 후만각, 재수술 부위의 시상면 각도, 그리고 근위부 인접부의 후만각 및 골유합률을 평가하였다. 결과: 수술 전 평균 ODI는 54.6±12.5에서 최종 추시 시 29.8±16.5로 향상되었다. 허리 통증과 다리 통증 NRS는 5.0±1.7, 6.4±2.0에서 2.9±1.6, 2.9±2.2로 향상되었다. 요추 전만각은 수술 전 18.1±11.9도가 최종 추시 시 21.1±10.3도였고, 근위부 인접부 후만각은 수술 전 10.8±10.1도가 최종 추시 시 9.2±10.5도로 유의미한 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 골유합률은 후외측 골유합을 시행한 1명을 제외하고는 모든 예에서 성공적인 유합이 이루어졌다. 결론: Revision rod를 사용한 흉요추의 재유합술에서 우수한 임상 결과를 보였다. 새롭게 개발된 revision rod와 관련된 문제는 발생하지 않았고 방사선상 골유합은 성공적이었다.
