Abstract:[Objective] To introduce the surgical technique and preliminary clinical outcome of cement-augmented short-segment pedi- cle screw fixation for the stage III Kümmell disease. [Methods] From January 2018 to January 2021, 20 patients received abovesaid surgical treatment for the stage III Kümmell disease. As the affected vertebrae were located by fluoroscopy, the markers was made on the body surface. Two pairs of cannulated cemented pedicles screws were placed percutaneously into the vertebrae above and below the affected vertebra re- spectively, whereas only one cannulated pedicle screw was placed on one side of the affected vertebra. Bone cement was injected into the above and below adjacent vertebrae firstly. After the bone cement cured, bilateral connecting rods were inserted percutaneously to reduce the kyphotic deformity of affected vertebrae by distraction, and then retain the non-screw side rod of the affected vertebra to maintain the reduc- tion. A puncture needle was inserted on the side of the affected vertebra where the pedicle screw was not inserted, and bone cement was inject- ed into the affected vertebra through the cannulated pedicle screw and the puncture needle to form a completely integrated bone cement block in the affected vertebral body. After the cement solidified in the affected vertebra, the puncture needle was withdrawn, and the screw side was inserted the rod again percutaneously, and lock the tail plug. Finally, the 5 small incisions were closed by suture. [Results] All the 20 patients had the surgical procedures performed successfully without serious complications, and followed up for 12~36 months. The VAS and ODI scores significantly reduced (P< 0.05) , while the Frankel grade of neurological function significantly improved at the last follow-up compared with those preoperatively. In terms of imaging, the anterior height of the injured vertebra increased significantly, whereas the kyphotic Cobb angle of the surgical segments and the wedge angle of the injured vertebra decreased significantly postoperatively (P<0.05) . [Conclusion] This cement-enhanced short-segment pedicle screw fixation for the stage III Kümmell’s disease does effectively restore the height of the in- jured vertebral body, correct kyphosis, prevent the re-collapse of the affected vertebral body, achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes.
