Vertebral Column: Regions and Curvature01:16

Vertebral Column: Regions and Curvature

The vertebral column or spine is a flexible column that supports the head, neck, and body and  allows for their movements. It also protects the spinal cord.
Regions of the Vertebral Column
In an adult, the spine is subdivided into five regions: the cervical, the thoracic, the lumbar, the sacral, and the coccygeal region. The spine initially develops as a series of 33 vertebrae; after 20 years of age, the nine bones in the sacral region, five sacral, and four coccygeal bones fuse to form the...

Area of Science:

  • Spine surgery
  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Cervical spine deformity

Background:

  • Limited literature on 360-degree cervical reconstruction for kyphotic deformity.
  • Need for data on correction achieved and maintained.

Observation:

  • Retrospective review of 41 patients with cervical kyphotic deformity treated with 360-degree reconstruction.
  • Minimum 1-year follow-up analyzed for outcomes.

Findings:

  • Mean correction of 22 degrees, achieving a 4-degree lordotic alignment.
  • 97.5% fusion rate with no loss of correction.
  • Low incidence of major complications, including quadriparesis and C8 radiculopathy.

Implications:

  • 360-degree reconstruction is a safe and effective method for correcting cervical kyphotic sagittal plane deformity.
  • Achieves stable, long-term correction with a high fusion rate.
  • Potential for improved patient outcomes in complex cervical deformities.
