- Abstract:
- Objective To evaluate the efficacy of posterior hemivertebra resection on spinal deformity in young children Methods From January 2015 to May 2018, retrospective reviews were conducted for 30 young children with hemivertebral deformities undergoing posterior hemivertebra resection and internal fixation. The data of operative duration, amount of bleeding and postoperative complications were recorded. The sagittal plane of whole spine, Cobb’s angle, kyphotic Cobb’s angle and correction values of kyphotic cobb’s angle were measured by imaging data. And T test was used for comparing the effect of operation on correction of scoliosis and kyphosis. Results There were 19 boys and 11 girls with an average age of 3.7±1.8 (2.5-6). The average follow-up period was 22.41±7.14 months, the average operative duration 3.25±1.3 h and the average amount of bleeding 147.74±168.55 ml. There was no postoperative onset of neurological and spinal complications. Two complications were associated with loosening of internal fixation in two children. The improvements of scoliosis and kyphosis were statistically significant. Conclusion Posterior hemivertebra resection is both safe and effective for correction of scoliosis and kyphosis caused by hemivertebra deformity in young children.
