Filter by:the main aim of this study is to evaluate the results of performing minimally invasive surgical management for cases with traumatic spinopelvic instability and spinopelvic dissociation. This will include using percutaneous pedicle and S2 alar iliac screws, minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion and transtubular posterior decompression.
Patients at the age of 50 or older presenting with thoracolumbar fractures including segments TH 6-L5 and A3/A4 fractures according to the AO Spine fracture classification after the acute trauma and planned surgery within 3 weeks following trauma will be asked to participate in a randomized trial in which they will receive either Calciumphosphate (CaP) or Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) as part of a standardized treatment approach. Regardless of the group patients are randomized to, all participating patients undergo the same surgical procedure except for the preparation and administration of bone cement. The study participation period for each patient is 1 year from the date of the surgery and includes 4 defined time points that include follow-up clinical visits for imaging and progress checks at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after surgery. At each follow-up visit, a combination of questionnaires and radiological imaging will be performed to assess general health status, disability level and pain control, as well as objective results of the surgery. The main outcome measure will be the loss of correction rate that will be measured through the bi-segmental COBB angle presented in the CT-scan.
