    Convex Short Segment Instrumentation and Hemi-Chevron Osteotomies for Putti Type 1 Thoracic Hemivertebrae A Simple Treatment Option for Patients Under 5 Years Old
    (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2013) Kose, Kamil Cagri; Inanmaz, Mustafa Erkan; Altinel, Levent; Bal, Emre; Caliskan, Islam; Isik, Cengiz; Ergan, Volkan
    Study Design:A case series depicting the results of a novel surgical technique.Objective:To prove that a minimally invasive surgical technique can effectively control and even correct congenital scoliosis caused by a fully segmented hemivertebra.Summary of Background Data:Congenital hemivertebrae have been treated by anterior and posterior growth arrest with/without fusion, anterior and posterior hemivertebrectomy, transpedicular hemivertebra excision, and transpedicular hemiepiphysiodesis. These approaches are complex and require experience. There is a need for a simple treatment method to treat these deformities.Methods:Twelve patients under 5 years of age with Putti type1 hemivertebrae were treated by posterior convex short segment instrumentation, partial chevron osteotomies, and fusion. Scoliosis, segmental scoliosis, kyphosis, segmental kyphosis, trunk shift were measured both preoperatively and postoperatively.Results:The mean correction of the segmental curve was 6 degrees (21%) which was maintained at the latest follow-up. The average final correction of the main curve was 23%. The trunk shift was 1.8 cm (range, 1-3 cm) preoperative and 1.4 cm (range, 0-2.5 cm) at the latest follow-up. The segmental angle of kyphosis averaged 11 degrees (range, -12 to 20 degrees) preoperative, and 14 degrees (range, 0-29 degrees) at the latest follow-up assessment. The values of the total thoracic kyphosis (T2-T12) were 29.5 degrees (range, 10-46 degrees) preoperative, 31 degrees (range, 10-44 degrees) postoperative, and 32 degrees (range, 16-45 degrees) at the last follow-up resulting in a mean improvement of 2 degrees. This improvement continued at the latest follow-up with a mean increase of 3 degrees.Conclusions:Transpedicular instrumentation is ideal for early correction in young children. The new posterior approach is much less invasive than the combined approaches or other posterior vertebrectomies and is well tolerated even in very young patients. The fusion segment is kept short. The deformities seem to stop progressing and this can avoid development of severe local deformities and secondary curves.

    PCA-pump for analgesia following pediatric scoliosis surgery: bolus administration with/without basal infusion
    (Springer, 2024) Isik, Cengiz; Demirhan, Abdullah; Ayanoglu, Tacettin; Arikan, Emre
    Objectives The aim of this study is to compare the use of two different opioid delivery systems (bolus PCA with/without basal infusion) to control postoperative pain and evaluate the side effect profile in pediatric patients undergoing scoliosis surgery. Patients and methods 38 patients who underwent posterior spinal fusion for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were included in the study. Patients were randomly divided into 2 groups by the computer. Patients who received only bolus PCA were named Group 1, and patients who received bolus PCA with basal infusion were named Group 2.Morphine consumption, postoperative pain assessmentduring rest, movement and coughing with numeric rating scale (NRS) and the Wong -Baker pain scale, heart rate and average blood pressure, sedation levels withRamsey sedation scale and side effects such as nausea, vomiting, itching, desaturation, and urinary retention were recorded. Results Total mean morphine consumption (mg) was 32.7 +/- 9.7 in Group 1 and 43.4 +/- 9.1 in Group 2. The mean morphine consumption (mg) at 12-24 hours and 0-48 hours in Group 1 was statistically lower than Group 2 (p = 0.001). There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of median NRS scores (p = 0.55). There was no statistically significant difference in the evaluation of the groups in terms of Wong-Baker pain scale. Wong-Baker pain scale is p:0.66 at the 2nd hour, p:0.951 at the 12th hour and p:0.467 at the 24th hour.There was no statistically significant difference in Ramsay Sedation Scale evaluation between groups during each follow-up time (p > 0.05). The Ramsay Sedation Scale was p: 0.94 at the 2nd hour, p:1.0 at the 12th hour, and p:1.0 at the 24th hour. The duration of vomiting between 0-2 h, 2-24 h and 0-48 h was higher in Group 2 (p = 0.001, p = 0.024, p = 0.001). Conclusion The two administration settings of morphine sulphate by PCA pump have shown to be equally effective in the treatment of postoperative pain following PSF. In addition, PCA with basal infusion administration causes more opioid consumption and more systemic side effects. Therefore, the use of only bolus PCA in pediatric scoliosis surgery should be encouraged. Level of evidenceLevel II, Randomized Controlled Trial.

    The Use of Intralaminar Screws in Patients With Spinal Deformity
    (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2013) Kose, Kamil C.; Inanmaz, Mustafa E.; Atmaca, Halil; Basar, Hakan; Isik, Cengiz; Bal, Emre
    Study Design:Retrospective study.Objective:To demonstrate that intralaminar screws (ILS) can be used as supplements in spinal deformity surgery in the thoracic and lumbar levels in pediatric and adult patients.Summary of Background Data:Rigid posterior fixation of the spine is generally accomplished using pedicle screws, hooks, or wires. ILSs are useful tools when other spinal fixation techniques have failed or the bony anatomy precludes hook or screw placement.Materials and Methods:All spinal deformity patients (primary/revision) operated between 2007 and 2011 were retrospectively reviewed. The patients with ILS were included in the study. The anteroposterior and lateral standing x-rays were evaluated in terms of preoperative and postoperative coronal and sagittal deformities. The number and level of ILS, intraoperative complications, and postoperative complications were noted.Results:There were 20 patients (12 male and 8 female). The mean age was 21.75 years. The mean follow-up period was 17.4 months. Fifty-seven ILS were inserted. Seventeen screws were used in the uppermost to lowermost levels. Forty screws were used in the middle. There was 1 lamina fracture and screw pull out (1.75%). There were 3 canal violations (corrected intraoperative) and 2 instrument prominences which required implant removal. The mean preoperative/postoperative cobb angles were 78.5 degrees/27.8 degrees and the mean preoperative/postoperative kyphosis angles were 57.2 degrees/32.5 degrees, respectively. The loss of correction was 1.2 degrees. There were no neurological deficits and no instrument failures.Conclusions:ILS are safe and effective when used in deformity correction. However, biomechanical studies and randomized controlled trials are needed to conclude whether ILS will be considered a first-line technique, or will remain a technique for salvage situations.
