Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the normal diameter range of T12 and L1 vertebras in different gender and adult age groups. Materials and Methods: 300 adult patients who had no pathology or trauma on thoracolumbar junction were selected for the study. 150 male and 150 female are divided into 18- 30, 31-50, 51-70 age groups. Thoracolumbar computerized tomography axial images were collected and used in measurement of bilateral pedicle diameters in milimetric scale. Numerical data were presented as means and standard deviations. Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparisons between more than two and between two independent groups, respectively. PASW Statistics v18 was used for the statistical analysis. Results: The mean pedicle diameter of T12 and L1 is calculated 6.06mm and 5.76 between ages 18-30, 6.10mm and 6.10 mm between ages 31-50, 5.57mm and 5.59mm between the age groups 51-70 on man. The mean pedicle diameter of T12 and L1 is calculated 4.83mm and 4.77 between ages 18-30, 4.61mm and 4.52 mm between ages 31-50, 4.62mm and 4.19mm between the age groups 51-70 on woman. The pedicle diameters of T12 and L1 vertebras on both sides were similar between age groups in both males and females . When the measurements were compared between sexes, it was seen that males had significantly larger pedicle diameters from females in all age groups. Conclusion: The range of thoracolumbar pedicles diameters of all age groups is measured between 4mm to 8mm on man and 2mm to 7mm on woman. Concerning with the results, patients who will be operated with the pedicular screw instrumentation technique, must be evaluated with the anatomic and morphometric analysis of vertebra pedicles in order to decrease the complication ratios.

Özet

Amaç: Torakolomber bileşkenin pedikül çaplarının erişkin yaş gruplarına göre dağılımının hesaplanmasıdır. Materyal-metod: Bu çalışmada torakolomber bölgede herhan- gi bir patolojisi bulunmayan 300 hasta incelendi. 150 erkek ve 150 kadın hasta 18-30, 31-50, 51-70 yaş gruplarına ayrıldı. Hastaların bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntülerinde T12 ve L1 vertebra pedikül çapları aksiyel kesitlerde iki taraflı milimetrik ölçü baz alınarak hesaplandı. İstatistiksel veriler ortanca de- ğerler ve standart sapmalar ile sunulmuştur. Gruplar arasında- ki karşılaştırmalarda Kruskal-Wallis ve Mann-Whitney U testleri kullanılmıştır. İstatistiki analizde PASW Statistics v18 programı kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlar: Erkeklerde 18-30 yaş arasında; T12 pedikül çap or- talaması 6.06 mm, L1 pedikül çap ortalaması 5.76 mm, 31-50 yaş arasında; T12 pedikül çap ortalaması 6.10 mm, L1 pedikül çap ortalaması 6.10 mm, 51-70 yaş arasında; T12 pedikül çap ortalaması 5.57 mm, L1 pedikül çap ortalaması 5.59 mm olarak bulunmuştur. Kadınlarda 18-30 yaş arasında; T12 pedikül çap ortalaması 4.83 mm, L1 pedikül çap ortalaması 4.77 mm, 31-50 yaş arasında; T12 pedikül çap ortalaması 4.61 mm, L1 pedikül çap ortalaması 4.52 mm, 51-70 yaş arasında; T12 pedikül çap ortalaması 4.62 mm, L1 pedikül çap ortalaması 4.19 mm olarak bulunmuştur. T12 ve L1 pedikül çapları iki taraflı olarak erkek ve kadınlarda kendi yaş grupları içerisinde de karşılaştırılmış fakat istatistiksel anlamlı bir fark bulunamamıştır. Bulunan değerler cinsiyet yönünden ise erkeklerin pedikül çapları ista- tistiksel anlamlı olarak kadınların pedikül çaplarından büyük bulunmuştur. Çıkarım: Erişkin erkeklerde tüm yaş gruplarında torakolom- ber bileşke pediküllerinin çap aralığı 4mm ile 8mm arasında hesaplanırken, kadınlarda ise çap aralığının 2mm ile 7mm aralığında değiştiği görülmüştür. Bu bilgiler göz önünde bu- lundurularak pedikül vidalama tekniğinde ameliyat edilecek hastanın omurlarının anatomik-morfometrik özelliklerine dik- kat edilmeli ve bu sayede karşılaşılabilecek komplikasyonlar en aza indirgenmelidir.
