Estadísticas
Objetivo

Se estudia la evolución del tratamiento mediante injerto autólogo y placa anterior de las lesiones traumáticas cervicales, incluyendo las que presentan lesión de las estructuras posteriores.

Material y método

Estudio retrospectivo de 40 casos de lesiones traumáticas cervicales del raquis inferior (desde C3 a C7), con un seguimiento medio de dos años. La serie consta de 31 varones (77,5%) y 9 mujeres (22,5%), con una edad media de 33 años (de 15 a 77 años). El tratamiento realizado ha sido la reducción y osteosíntesis con placa anterior e injerto tricortical de cresta ilíaca. Se realiza una valoración clínica del dolor residual cervical y cervicobraquial en 4 grados y una valoración radiológica del resultado final, analizando la consolidación, la alineación y la presencia de listesis residual.

Resultados

Se ha obtenido la consolidación de la artrodesis en 39 pacientes (97,5%), con una buena alineación final del raquis cervical. La evolución clínica ha sido favorable y la tasa de complicaciones muy baja.

Conclusiones

La fijación anterior con placa es un tratamiento válido para las lesiones traumáticas cervicales, incluidas aquéllas con afectación de las estructuras posteriores.

Palabras clave:

Aim

The outcome of treatment of traumatic cervical spine injuries with autologous bone graft and anterior plate fixation, including injuries with lesions of posterior structures, was studied.

Materials and methods

Retrospective study of 40 patients with traumatic injury of the lower cervical spine (C3 to C7) and a mean follow-up of 2 years. The series consisted of 31 men (77.5%) and 9 women (22.5%), mean age 33 years (15 to 77 years). Patients were treated by reduction and bone fixation with an anterior plate and tricortical iliac crest graft. Residual cervical pain and cervicobrachial pain were assessed clinically on a four-point scale and the final outcome was studied radiographically to analyze bone healing, alignment, and presence of residual listhesis.

Results

Consolidation was achieved in 39 patients (97.5%), with good final alignment of the cervical spine. The clinical outcome was favorable and the complication rate was very low.

Conclusions

Anterior plate fixation is a valid surgical option for traumatic cervical spine injuries, including those that involve posterior structures.
