Popis: | Compensatory changes in cervical sagittal alignment after C1-C2 arthrodesis have been reported in a few studies. No studies have explored the differences in these compensatory changes between traumatic and non-traumatic pathologies. Conflicting reports exist on the correlation between cervical sagittal parameters and neck pain or function.Medical records of 81 consecutive patients [Jan 2010-Dec 2018] who underwent Harms arthrodesis were retrospectively reviewed. 53 patients were included in the final analysis. Radiological parameters [C0-C1, C1-C2, C2-C7 angles and T1 slope] and clinical parameters [VAS (Visual analogue scale) and NDI (Neck disability index)] were compared between the two groups, Group A (traumatic) and Group B (non-traumatic).The 53 patients [Group A (The sub-axial sagittal profile was strongly correlated with the ΔC1-C2 angle in both groups. Group B showed greater changes in sagittal parameters after Harms fixation and Group A showed greater improvement in long-term functional outcomes. The final functional outcomes were not related to the initial or final radiological sagittal profile in both groups. |
