Abstract

Introduction: Symptomatic thoracic disc herniations are relatively rare and challenging due to wide variety of clinical presentations, lack of consensus on surgical indications and variety of surgical approaches. Our objective was to describe our series of calcified thoracic disc herniations and outcomes.Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study of 10 patients with calcified TDH operated between 2008 and 2013. Data were collected from review of patients’ notes and radiological studies and included basic demographic data and clinical presentation and outcome, operative procedure and complications. 10 patients, including 6 males and 4 females (mean age 35.6 years, range 22-58 years). The mean follow-up was 28.1 months . All patients were operated by transpedicular approach and in 7 patients posterior transpedicular stabilization was performed.Results: In the preoperative period three patients were Nurick grade 1, two patients were grade 2, three patients were grade 3 and two patients were grade 4. Surgical treatment obtained satisfactory results and the Nurick grade improved in all of the patients (100 %). Five patients’ symptoms turned out to be Nurick grade 0 and five patients turned out to be grade 1. The mean Nurick grade improved from 2.4 to 0.5. Conclusion: Calcified TDHs remains a surgical challenge. The goal of the surgery is to decompress the neural elements without any manipulation of the spinal cord apart from the choice of surgical technique. When adequately diagnosed and treated, satisfactory results can be achieved

Özet

Giriş: Semptomatik torakal disk hernileri oldukça nadir görülmesi, farklı klinik durumlarla ortaya çıkması, ortak kabul edilebilir bir cerrahi endikasyonu olmaması ve farklı cerrahi girişimlerin olması nedeniyle tedavisi zor bir patolojidir. Biz bu çalışmada kalsifiye torakal disk hernili olgu serimizi ve sonuçlarını sunduk.Hasta ve Yöntemler: Bu geriye dönük çalışmada 2008-2013 yılları arasında torakal disk hernisi nedeniyle ameliyat edilmiş olgular incelendi. Bilgiler, temel demografik veriler, klinik bulgular, sonuçlar, ameliyat notları ve komplikasyon bilgilerini içeren hasta dosyalarından elde edildi.Sonuçlar: 10 olgunun 6'sı bayan, 4'ü erkekti (yaşları ortalaması 35,6 yıl olup 22-58 arasındaydı). Ortalama takip süresi 28,1 aydır . Bütün olgular transpediküler yaklaşımla ameliyat edildi ve 7 olguya posterior transpediküler fiksasyon uygulandı. Preoperatif dönemde 3 olguda Nurick skoru 1 iken, iki olguda 2, üç olguda 3 ve 2 olguda 4 olarak tespit edildi. Cerrahi tedavi tüm olgularda yeterli iyileşme ve Nurick skorlarında düzelme sağladı (%100). Beş olguda Nurick skoru 0 olurken 5 olguda 1 olarak tespit edildi. Ortalama Nurick skoru 2,5 dan 0,5 e iyileşti. Sonuç: Kalsifiye torakal disk hernilerinin cerrahisinde çelişkiler mevcuttur. Cerrahideki amaç seçilecek yöntemle spinal kortta herhangi bir manipülasyona neden olmadan nöral elemanları dekompresyonudur. Uygun şekilde tanı konup tedavi edildiğinde başarılı sonuçlar alınabilir
