Abstract

AIM: Iatrogenic vertebral artery (VA) injury during ventral approaches to the subaxial cervical spine ranges from 0.22% to 2.77%. Evaluation of the extent of safe lateral working distance before the V2 segment of the VA is reached can be helpful to avoid this complication. MaterIal and Methods: In 100 patients (48 males and 52 females) axial computed tomographic scanning was used to measure the distance from the medial border of longus colli muscle (LCM) to the medial border of the foramen transversarium along the anterior border of the vertebral body at each level from C3-4 down to C6-7. The arithmetic mean of the 2 measurements at the upper and lower end-plates of the corresponding level was considered representative of the safe lateral working distance at this level. Statistical significance was set as P value< 0.001. Results: No statistically significant difference was found between the measurements in the whole study population at various levels or between subgroups. A gradual increase in the distances was noticed from C3-4 down to C6-7 level in all subgroups except for spondylotic males. ConclusIon: This study offers useful morphometric data that can help the surgeon avoid VA injury during anterior procedures to the subaxial cervical spine.

Özet

AMAÇ: Subaksiyal servikal omurgaya vertebral yaklaşımlar sırasında iatrojenik vertebral arter (VA) hasarı %0,22 - %2,77 oranında görülür. VA kısmına erişilmeden V2 segmenti öncesinde güvenli lateral çalışma mesafesinin değerlendirilmesi bu komplikasyonların önlenmesinde yardımcı olabilir. YÖNTEM ve GEREÇLER: 100 hastada (48 erkek ve 52 kadın) C3-4’ten aşağıya C6-7’ye kadar her seviyede vertebral cisim ön kenarı boyunca longus colli kasının (LCM) medial kenarından foramen transversarium’un medial kenarına kadar olan mesafeyi ölçmek için aksiyal bilgisayarlı tomografik tarama kullanıldı. Karşılık gelen seviyede üst ve alt plakalarda 2 ölçümün aritmetik ortalamasının bu seviyede güvenli lateral çalışma mesafesini temsil ettiği kabul edildi. İstatistiksel önem P değerinin< 0,001 olması olarak belirlendi. BULGULAR: Tüm çalışma popülasyonunda çeşitli seviyeler veya alt gruplar arasında ölçümler arasında istatistiksel olarak önemli bir fark bulunmadı. Spondilotik erkekler hariç tüm alt gruplarda C3-4’ten aşağıya C6-7 seviyesine kadar mesafelerde kademeli bir artış saptandı. SONUÇ: Bu çalışma, cerrahın subaksiyal servikal omurgada anterior işlemler sırasında VA hasarından kaçınmak için kullanabileceği faydalı morfometrik veriler sunmaktadır.
