摘要
A high rate of instrumentation failure is frequently seen in osteoporotic spines, especially at the sacral segment because of the great shear stress. Several techniques of sacral pedicle screw placement, such as bicortical and tricortical fixation, have been developed; however, the problems of loosening and pulling out of the screws are still a concern. Recently, the polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)-augmented pedicle screws have been shown to strengthen the purchase in osteoporotic spine, but there are few reports on the effect of S1 pedicle screw with PMMA augmentation.Seventy-five patients receiving cement-augmented pedicle screws at lumbosacral vertebra were enrolled and divided into 3 groups by different patterns of S1 pedicle screw placement: S1 pedicle screw with PMMA augmentation (group A, 25 patients), S1 bicortical pedicle screw fixation (group B, 25 patients), and S1 tricortical pedicle screw fixation (group C, 25 patients). The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores were assessed preoperatively and at the last follow-up. Besides, the complications, loosening rate, and fusion rate were recorded.The VAS and ODI scores at the last follow-up were significantly improved in the 3 groups compared with preoperative results. Better pain relief and functional improvement at the last follow-up was seen in group A compared with the other 2 groups; however, no significant difference was detected between groups B and C. Although the lowest screws loosening rates and the highest fusion rate were found in group A, no significant difference among these 3 groups. Furthermore, longer fusion segments and larger postoperative pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis (PL-LL) were found as risks related to S1 screw loosening without cement augmentation.The S1 pedicle screws with PMMA augmentation achieved better stability with less screw loosening in the osteoporotic spine with lumbosacral degenerative diseases compared with bicortical/tricortical fixation at S1. This procedure is especially recommended for patients with long segment fixation and large postoperative PI-LL, but there is also a risk of bone cement leakage and a learning curve.
