Abstract:Abstract Objective: To explore the effectiveness of percutaneous pedicle screw minimally invasive surgery for thoracolumbar vertebral fractures and its impact on pain and imaging indexes. Methods: 86 patients with spinal fractures admitted to our hospital from December 2016 to March 2019 were selected and divided into two groups (n = 43) according to the random number table method. The control group was treated with traditional open internal fixation surgery and the research group. Percutaneous pedicle screw minimally invasive surgery. The two groups were compared the excellent and good rate of treatment, the index of operation period, the imaging index of injured vertebrae, the incidence of complications, the quality of life after operation, and the VAS score. Results: The excellent rate and operation time of the study group were higher than the control group (P <0.05), the intraoperative blood loss and hospitalization time were lower than the control group (P <0.05); the kyphosis Cobb angle, intervertebral space height, vertebrae of the study group The relative height of the anterior body edge was higher than that of the control group (P <0.05); the incidence of complications in the study group was lower than that of the control group (P <0.05); the overall health, physical pain, physiological functions, social functions, and emotional functions of the study group were high Compared with the control group (P <0.05); the VAS score of the research group was lower than that of the control group (P <0.05). Conclusion: In the treatment of patients with spinal fractures, percutaneous pedicle screw minimally invasive surgery is more effective, which can improve the imaging indexes of injured vertebrae of the patients, with quicker prognosis recovery and fewer complications, so as to facilitate clinical application.
