Abstract

Background: Of all form of spinal tuberculo­sis (TB), cervical involvement is immensely rare and merely found in 3-5% of all cases. Kyphotic deformity in spondylitis TB was caused by ver­tebral destruction in the anterior segment due to infection that lead to hyperemia, bone marrow edema, and osteoporosis. Treatment of spinal TB was divided into two sections which run simultaneously, medicament and surgery. The use of cage for spinal surgery has shown its effectivity in supporting the anterior segment of vertebrae and providing long term stability. The purpose of this study was to compare functional out­come of two patients with cervical deformity caused by spondylitis TB that underwent two-stage reconstruction surgery with expandable and non-expandable cage. Case Presentation: Two patients were re­ported with cervical deformity caused by spon­dylitis TB in Orthopedic Hospital Prof. Dr. R. Soeharso, Surakarta. Both patients had their neurological status, Cobb angle, decompres­s­ion effects and post-operative fusion rate assessed. The patients were diagnosed with cervical deformity due to spondylitis TB showing the involvement of C4-5 in the first patient and C3-5 in the second one. Both underwent two-stage reconstruction surgery and were evaluated right after. There was no decadence in their post-operative neurological function. In the first patient, pre-operative Cobb angle was 44oand becoming 18o post-operatively. The pre-operative Cobb angle of the second patient was 14o and becoming 3o post-operatively.Results: Assessment of post-operative decom­pression effects and fusion rate were carried out by CT scan and both patients showed a favorable result even when they both were given a different cage. Although both cages had their own advantages based on surgical consi­deration, we prefer to used expandable cage due to minimal dissection needed.Conclusion: Two-stage reconstruction surge­ry using whether expandable or non-expand­able cage to treat cervical deformity caused by Spondylitis TB gave equally satisfactory out­come.Keywords: Spondylitis, tuberculosis, cervical deformityCorrespondence: Adhitya Indra Pradhana.

Abstract

Background: Many spinal vertebral anoma­lies often occur, both scoliosis and kyfosis. In scoliosis, congenital abnormalities caused by hemivertebrae are the most common cause of abnormalities. The choice of treatment used can be either non-operative or operative. How­ever, non-operative treatment does not show satisfactory results to prevent the development of deformity. Operative treatment is an option that is considered to indicate more satisfying results. A variety of procedures such as in-situ posterior or with or without instrumentation anteroposterior fusions, combined anterior and poste­rior convex hemiepiphysiodesis and hemi­arthrodesis, and hemivertebral excision with fusion. Fusi In-situ posterior is a procedure option that is considered more beneficial for both surgeons and patients. This study aimed to evaluate the fusi in situ posterior for conge­nital scoliosis with wedge hemivertebrae using single rod and pedicle screw instrumentation in girl 2 year old.Case Presentation: Girl 2 year old with wedge hemivertebrae operated with fusion in situ posterior using single rod and pedicle screw instrumentation.Results: The operative treatment was per­formed on 2 hours operation time with amount of bleeding produced is 80 cc. There were no cranckshaft phenomena and no clinical and radological features suggestive of spinal ste­nosis. There were no major vascular or neuro­gical complications related to the pedicle screws. Then patient wore body jacket for limitation movement before fusion.Conclusion: Posterior situ fusion is perform­ed as convex fusion to avoid curve progression. Fusion in situ posterior using single rod and pedicle screw instrumentation. In congenital scoliosis is minimal blood loss, less traumatic, simple, safe and effective procedure. This study showed the early fusi in situ posterior of conge­nital scoliosis structural changes occur above or below can reduce fusion length, prevent curve progression and effectively achieve a more satisfactory correction without hazardous iatro­genic spinal stenosis, crankshaft phenomena, or neurological complications. Further research is needed to assess the progress of the outcome of surgeryKeywords: congenital scoliosis, wedge hemi­vertebrae, convex, fusi in situ posteriorCorrespondence: Pamudji Utomo.

Abstract

Background:Knee osteoarthritis (OA), known as degenerative joint disease, is typically the result of wear and tear and progressive loss of articular cartilage, most common in elderly women and men. Knee OA is a leading cause of disability and increase with an aging and overweight population. Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is a common surgical treatment of OA knee that highly cost-effective procedure. Stable placement of components is difficult and thus it presents technical challenges for the surgeon but various options are available for managing these defects.Case Report: A 58 years-old housewife came to our clinic due to chronic left knee pain with associated instability since two years ago and getting worse in last three months. She already had knee joint supplementation injections and physical therapy but no improvements. Based on our clinical and radiological findings, our assessment was secondary left knee osteo-arthritis with medial instability and tibial defect due to chronic abscess. Patient underwent TKA to correct this condition. A revised implant was used to close the defect in the medial part of the tibia and soft tissue reconstruction procedure was used to correct the instability.Result: On the first postoperative month, the patient underwent rehabilitation and physical therapy to strengthen her lower limb muscles. On the second month, she started to walk using walking assisted device. On the ninth months follow-up, the patient was able to walk normally without assisted device, the pain disappeared and the symptoms of knee instability were reduced.Conclusion:Bone defects are commonly encountered during TKA, which still has no standard treatment to cure. In this case, the use of metal augmentation with revision implant give satisfactory results with good clinical outcome.Keywords: Osteoarthritis, Total Knee Arthro¬plasty, knee instability, tibial defect, metal augmentationCorrespondence:Bintang Soetjahjo.

Abstract

Introduction Tuberculosis of the cervical spine is rare, comprising only 3-5% of cases of tuberculosis of the spine. TB spine is the most common form of skeletal TB. It is the most dangerous manifestation of TB due to the involvement of the spinal cord and the resultant neurologic impairment. Objective The objective of this paper is to present our experience with a rare case of cervical spine spondylitis. This case stresses the usefulness of a single-stage anterior and posterior approach with posterior instrumentation. Method We present a case report based on our internal documents. We report a case of spondylitis tuberculosis of the C6-C7 cervical spine associated with retropharyngeal abscess in a 15-year-old Indonesian female. Neck pain and weakness of both upper and lower extremities were the main features. There was a history of weight loss, fever, and excessive night sweats. No antecedent history of trauma to the head and neck region. Results We did a single-stage anterior and posterior approach with posterior instrumentation. Anterior approach was done to evacuate and debridement of the retropharyngeal abscess. The posterior approach was done for posterior instrumentation with pedicle screw and dual rod. We did posterior stabilization on Cervical 5-6 and Thoracal 3-4. One week after surgery we found remarkable improvement of the pain and extremities functions. Conclusion In the surgical treatment of cervicothoracic spinal tuberculosis, a single-stage cervical combined anterior-posterior approach with posterior instrumentation is capable of complete debridement for tuberculosis lesions. Operative management in our patient resulted in remarkable improvement. Keywords: Cervicothoracic spondylitis, tuberculosis, retropharyngeal abscess

Abstract

Introduction: As much as 40% of low back pain patients are caused by degenerative disc disease. The current treatments are fusion stabilization and total disc replacement, which have a risk for adjacent segment disease. These suboptimal results have become the beginning of the development of regenerative therapy. The success of this therapy will increase if the scaffold meets the ideal conditions. Biological scaffolds provide a cell growth environment that resembles the original tissue. Bovine intervertebral nucleus pulposus can become promising scaffolds. Objective: This research describes the proper freeze-drying approach for decellularizing bovine nucleus pulposus to create a biological scaffold. Methods: We conducted an experimental post-test control design study using bovine coccygeal nucleus pulposus material. All treatment groups underwent freeze-drying with Buchi Lyovapor™ L-200/L-200 Pro. All groups were evaluated for the level of decellularization using the Quick-DNA™ Miniprep Plus Kit (Zymo Research®) and remaining glycosaminoglycan levels by Alcian Blue staining. Results: Comparison of DNA concentrations obtained p-values respectively <0.0001 (p <0.05), which means that all the treatments showed a decrease in DNA concentration compared to the control group. The comparison of the glycosaminoglycan percentage between the P1 vs. Control group obtained a value of p=0.381 (p>0.05), which means that the glycosaminoglycan percentage results for the P1 group were not significantly different from the control group. Conclusion: This study of group P1 showed that decellularization of the bovine nucleus pulposus by freeze-drying technique can form an excellent biological scaffold.

Abstract

Background: Tibial shaft fractures including open tibial fractures grade III are one of the most common fractures of long bones. There are many methods of conservative and operative treatment, one of them is external fixation. External fixation is more common used temporary in polytraumatized patients with tibial shaft fractures. The study was undertaken to see if the patient can be treated with external fixation as the definitive treatment and evaluate the functional outcome after the treatment.Subjects and Method: A retrospective review of a prospectively-collected database was performed. Data was taken from the Orthopaedic Department of RSUD Dr. Moewardi Hospital patients’ database. The study included all patients who underwent grade III open tibial fracture treatment from May 2018 to May 2019. A total of 8 patients who were included in our study were a patient with open tibial fractures grade III planned for external fixaton as definitive treatment. They were evaluated radiographically and clinically to determine the union rate. The data were reported descriptively.Results: External fixator time ranged in this study around 240 days. In this study, there were a few patients whose progress were remain unknown due to loss of contact. Fractures studied 5 out of 8, no patient were union after 8 months of external fixator used. 4 out of 8 patients were reported non-union after 8 months based on their radiological examination (50%) and 1 out of 8 patients were reported has been performed Removal of External Fixation (ROEF) after 5 months of treatment. The rest of the 3 patients’ results were remain unknown.Conclusion: Open tibial fractures grade III  of the leg can be managed with use of external fixator as a definitive treatment. However, the use of external fixation does not provide maximum results in grade III A tibial fractures.Keywords: open tibial fractures, external fixation, union, malunionCorrespondence: Bintang Soetjahjo.

Abstract

Background: Patient-reported outcomes are increasingly valuable for assessing the effectiveness of clinical interventions from the patient's perspective. This study aims to investigate the differences in the correlation between radiological measurements and 1-year postoperative SRS-22r domain scores in early (EA) and middle adolescence (MA) patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), as well as analyze the correlation of these outcomes across different Lenke curve types. Methods: We reviewed records of 87 female AIS patients who underwent scoliosis corrective surgery, collecting data on age, body mass index, preoperative and postoperative radiographic measurements, and 1-year postoperative quality of life assessments, including function, pain, self-image, and satisfaction scores from the SRS-22r questionnaire. Patients were categorized into subgroups based on age and the number of curves. The Spearman correlation test evaluated correlations between radiographic measures and SRS-22r domain scores across these subgroups. Results: Significant correlations were found between self-image and preoperative main apical vertebral translation (AVT), Cobb angle, and trunk shift, with stronger associations in EA than MA. Pain had a weak inverse correlation with the postoperative main Cobb angle, notably in the one-curve group and more strongly in EA. Satisfaction scores decreased with age and were lower in the two-curve group and EA. Conclusions: Cobb angle correction in AIS patients strongly correlates to postoperative self-image, particularly in Lenke type 2, 3, and 6. In Lenke type 1 and type 5, greater correction of the Cobb angle is associated with increased postoperative pain.

Abstract

Background: Spinal neurofibromas are benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors typically occurring in the thoracic region. Involvement of the C2 vertebra is particularly rare. Atypical presentations of solitary neurofibromas can pose diagnostic challenges when their radiological features resemble other neoplastic entities. Case Report: A 35-year-old male presented with a 3-month history of neck pain and no history of trauma. Physical examination revealed mild bulging and localized tenderness in the posterior neck, with restricted neck extension to 30 degrees. Plain radiography showed a round, expansile lytic lesion with well-defined, nonsclerotic borders on the C2 spinous process, while MRI confirmed enhancing solid components and extensive bone involvement, indicative of a giant cell tumor. The histopathology from the core needle biopsy was inconclusive, showing few inflammatory cells and no evidence of malignancy. The lesion was marginally resected from a posterior approach, achieving only subtotal resection to preserve the vertebral artery. Histopathological analysis from the open biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of neurofibroma. At the 3-month follow-up, postoperative imaging showed the residual tumor. Despite this, the patient reported significant neck pain relief.Discussion: Radiography is insufficient for differentiating spinal tumors; therefore, histopathological biopsy is necessary for an accurate diagnosis. Open biopsy offers higher diagnostic accuracy than core needle biopsy.Conclusion: Neurofibroma should be considered in differential diagnosis for patients initially suspected of giant cell tumors based on radiological findings.
