- Traumatic Lumbosacral Spondyloptosis in a Pediatric Patient: Case Report and Literature Review(2018) YAMAKI, Vitor Nagai; MORAIS, Barbara Albuquerque; BROCK, Roger Schmidt; PAIVA, Wellingson Silva; ANDRADE, Almir Ferreira de; TEIXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenA 4-year-old girl was admitted to the emergency department after having been buried beneath a wall. A computed tomography scan revealed anterior grade V L5-S1 spondylolisthesis, and magnetic resonance imaging showed a traumatic rupture of the fibrous annulus of the L5-S1 intervertebral disc and lesion of the anterior longitudinal and yellow ligaments. The patient underwent anterior and posterior fixation. Four months later she was able to walk independently, despite a persistent left foot drop. Additionally, we conducted a literature review on lumbosacral spondyloptosis in the pediatric population published between 1990 and 2017. We found 16 cases, 86.6% of which were male, with a mean patient age of 16 +/- 5.05 years. Most patients underwent spine instrumentation. Based on the data reviewed, the neurological status at admission might be a valid predictor of outcome. Pedicle screws are a safe and reliable procedure for stable fixation of the spine in these cases. The removal of screws is discouraged. (c) 2018 S. Karger AG, Basel.
- The impact of traumatic herniated discs in cervical facets dislocations treatments: systematic review and meta-analysis(2022) ONISHI, Franz Jooji; DANIEL, Jefferson Walter; JOAQUIM, Andrei Fernandes; EVANGELISTA, Alecio Cristino; BERTOLINI, Eduardo de Freitas; DANTAS, Fernando Rolemberg; NETO, Eloy Rusafa; MUDO, Marcelo Luiz; BROCK, Roger; MILANO, Jeronimo Buzetti; BOTELHO, Ricardo VieiraBackground Traumatic facet dislocations in the subaxial cervical spine, also known as locked facets, are commonly associated with neurological deficits. The fear of the presence of an associated traumatic disc herniation and consequent neurological worsening usually causes a delay in the spinal realignment. This study's aim is an analysis of safety and efficacy when treating acute cervical traumatic facet dislocations using cranial-cervical traction or posterior open reduction and fixation in the presence of disc herniations. Methods Inclusion criteria addressed the following patient groups: (1) MRI diagnosis of traumatic cervical facet dislocations with disc herniation, (2) intervention: either cranial-cervical traction or posterior open reduction and fixation, (4) neurological outcomes after treatment, (5) adult 18 plus years of age, (6) sample sizes greater than 20 patients, (7) English language publication. The following databases and search tools were analyzed: MEDLINE (PubMed), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Google Scholar, and the clinical trial registries (ClinicalTrials.gov), October 2021. Results Six studies were found, 2 with posterior open reduction and fixation and 4 with cranial-cervical traction, totalizing 197 patients. Neurological worsening was reported only in 1 case (0.5%). Conclusions Traumatic disc herniation in cervical facet dislocations is not an absolute contraindication of cranial-cervical traction or posterior open reduction. Early realignment of the spine could bring more neurological benefits than waiting for an MRI or surgical discectomy. However, caution is needed in this review's data interpretation until prospective and well-designed studies are performed.
