Post-Operative Computed Tomography to Evaluate the Accuracy of Thoracic and Lumbosacral Spine Pedicular Screw Fixation
...Show More Authors

 Background: pedicular screw fixation is rapidly becoming a widely used method of spinal instrumentation. Despite improvement in design of instruments and surgical technique and the use of intra-operative fluoroscopy, pedicle cortical perforations occur endangering nearby neurovascular or extra vertebral structures.
Objective: This is a prospective (consecutive cases study) designed for Evaluation of incidence of pedicle screw misplacement in our study sample, compare our results to what is published in literature.
Patients and Method: This study involved 25 adult patients ( 10 males and 15 females ) their age ranged between ( 18 and 70 years) who underwent spinal surgery with pedicle screw fixation for different disorders of thoracic and lumbosacral spine with the aid of intraoperative fluoroscopy. Computed Tomography (CT) scan within one month was done for all patients to evaluate the accuracy of pedicle screw placement. Any new neurological symptoms was recorded and correlated with screw misplacement.
Results: 122screws inserted in 25 patients with an overall accuracy of (90.16%), frank misplacement of (4.09% )and questionable penetration of ( 5.73%) , new neurological deficit was seen in (20%) among all misplaced screws and in one case (4%) out of the 25 cases.
Conclusion: pedicle screw fixation surgery is a demanding procedure. Our incidence of screw misplacement is compatible with the lower published results in the literature. Not all patients with frank penetration of the pedicle cortical outlines developed complications.

لفية البحث:  إن جراحة تثبيت العمود الفقري باستخدام مسمار قدم الفقرات أصبحت من الوسائل الشائعة في جراحه العمود الفقري. رغم التطور الذي في تقنيات و تصاميم وسائل هذه ألجراحه و استخدام التصوير ألشعاعي إثناء هذه ألجراحه لازالت هنالك احتماليه وضع هذا المسمار في غير موضعه الصحيح محدثا ثقوبا في قشره قدم الفقرات مهددا أصابه الأحشاء العصبية و الوعائية ما حول الفقرات.

الهدف من الدراسة: تقييم دقه موضع مسمار قدم الفقرات في مجموعه المرضى اللذين شملوا بهذه الدراسة. مقارنه نتائج دراستنا من حيث نسبه عدم ألدقه مع النسب ألمنشوره في الدراسات و البحوث العالمية الأخرى.

طريقه الدراسة: في هذه الدراسة تم ضم 25 مريضا بالغين (10 ذكور و 15 إناث), تتراوح أعمارهم مابين (18-70) عاما اللذين خضعوا لجراحه تثبيت العمود الفقري بواسطة مسمار قدم الفقرات لمختلف العلل الجراحية للعمود الفقري في المنطقة الصدرية والقطنية والعجزية , تم إجراء التصوير المقطعي لجميع المرضى خلال شهر واحد ما بعد ألجراحه لتقييم دقه موضع مسمار قدم الفقرات وقد تم تسجيل إي اختلاطات سريريه عصبيه ما بعد ألجراحه.

النتائج: لقد تم وضع 122 مسمارا في 25 مريضا وقد كانت النسبة ألعامه لصحة موضع مسمار قدم الفقرات (90,16%) و كانت نسبه عدم الصحة (4,09%) و كانت نسبه (5,73%) غير واضحة و مشكوك في صحة موضعها لقد لوحظ وجود اختلاطات عصبيه في 20%من العدد الكلي للمسامير ,في مريض واحد 4% من أصل 25 مريضا.

الاستنتاجات : إن جراحه تثبيت العمود الفقري بواسطة مسمار قدم الفقرات جراحه تتطلب دقه و خبره في هذا المجال, نسبه عدم صحة موضع مسمار قدم الفقرات في دراستنا مقاربه إلى اوطا النسب ألمسجله في الدراسات و البحوث ألمنشوره عالميا.

...Show More Authors

Background: To evaluate the bony supports of the teeth adjacent to the area of cleft in patient with unilateral cleft lip and palate and to compare these measurements with the measurements of the same teeth in non-cleft side by using CBCT. Materials and methods: The CBCT scans of 30 patients having cleft lip( unilateral) and palate(unilateral), were analyzed and the measurements of the alveolar bony support for teeth that are adjacent to the cleft area were measured with those teeth located on opposite side (non- clef) side. For each tooth, the measurements will taken for the distance between the( cementoenamel junction) (CEJ) and the bony crest (AC) at the( buccal area) was measured and the thickness of the buccal plate At zero, one, tw
