[Surgical treatment of patients with injuries of the spine of the thoracic and lumbar localization].

Surgical treatment of 276 patients with uncomplicated (71.7%) and complicated (28.3%) injuries of the spine of the thoracic and lumbar localization was taken as the material for the article. The authors propose a rational strategy and tactics of operative treatment of patients with traumas of the spine and also they make an assessment of efficiency of some new surgical technologies. The volume and optimum terms of the decompressive-stabilizing operations on the spine are determined depending on the kind of the vertebral injury and the general state of the patient. The effectiveness of the present-day systems of stabilization of the spine (transpedicular constructions and plates for the frontal fixation of the spine) was demonstrated.

[Posttraumatic spinal instability and the methods for its surgical correction].

The paper deals with the outcomes of 982 patients with thoracic and lumbar spinal lesions and the data of biomechanical testing (298 studies on 103 specimens from the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine). Major types of acute posttraumatic spinal instability (such as axial instability, threatening fractured fragment instability, and threatening segmental instability) are defined and the stabilizing capacities of routine surgical techniques are assessed. The current systems for stabilizing the spine (transpedicular designs and plates for anterior spinal fixation is shown to be effective.
