[Progress on clinical application of anterior cervical pedicle screw fixation for instable cervical spine disease]. 2018

Ji-Hui Zhang, and Liu-Jun Zhao

Instability of the cervical spine disease requires surgery to restore stability. In the past, surgical methods were divided into two kinds of anterior and posterior. But each has its own disadvantages:anterior vertebral screw has a higher failure rate, sometimes need a second operation; and posterior pedicle screw, lateral mass screw and facet joint screw may make greater trauma, lead to longer hospitalization. For general instable cervical spine disease, according to the location of the disease, only with the anterior or posterior approach can achieve a stable effect. However, it often fails to achieve the desired stability with only anterior or posterior approach for the three column injury of single segment, the disease need for multi-segment corpectomy and discectomy. Meanwhile, combined with the anterior and posterior have more obvious disadvantages:such as prolonged operation time, greater surgical injury, increased risk of infection and so on.In recent years, anterior transpedicular screw (ATPS) as a new technique was used for cervical spine fixation. Its laboratory and clinical studies have been conducted about biomechanical properties, morphological feasibility, pull-out strength, radiological features and new technology for inserting screws. Because of its strong stability, perfect mechanical properties and the satisfactory results of patients, which has been recognized by many scholars. Although this technique has been used in clinical practice, Its long-term clinical effect needs to be further clarified. Even so, the innovative proposal will provide a new thread for the majority of doctors and colleagues in treating unstable cervical disease.
