Application of open-door laminoplasty with ARCH plate fixation in cervical intraspinal tumors.

Background: The open-door laminoplasty is an effective procedure for the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy. However, little information is available about the surgical results of open-door laminoplasty in the treatment of intraspinal tumors. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the clinical effect of open-door laminoplasty with ARCH plate fixation in the treatment of cervical intraspinal tumors.

Transdural circumferential decompression for thoracic spinal stenosis caused by beak-type ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament: a technical note.

Purpose: Thoracic myelopathy caused by ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) in the thoracic spine is usually progressive and responds poorly to conservative therapy, making surgery the only effective treatment option. A variety of surgical procedures have been developed to treat thoracic OPLL. However, the optimal surgical approach for removal of thoracic OPLL remains unclear.

Application of Laminoplasty Combined with ARCH Plate in the Treatment of Lumbar Intraspinal Tumors.

Objective: To investigate the bone fusion and clinical effect of laminoplasty combined with ARCH plate fixation in the treatment of lumbar intraspinal tumors.

Methods: This was a clinical study. From June 2017 to January 2019, 24 patients (seven males and 17 females, average age 40 ± 16 years) with lumbar intraspinal tumors underwent laminoplasty combined with ARCH plate fixation in our hospital.

Repair mechanism of astrocytes and non-astrocytes in spinal cord injury.

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a destructive disease that incurs huge personal and social costs, and there is no effective treatment. Although the pathogenesis and treatment mechanism of SCI has always been a strong scientific focus, the pathogenesis of SCI is still under investigation.

Aim: To determine the key genes based on the modularization of in-depth analysis, in order to identify the repair mechanism of astrocytes and non-astrocytes in SCI.

[Anatomic study of paths for transiliac screws in Galveston fixation].

Objective: To describe the satisfactory intra-iliac paths in Galveston fixation combined with adult human cadaver and radiology study.

Methods: Five adult cadavers with 10 hemisected pelvises were harvested. Parallelly to the Chiotic line, the bone every other 5 mm till the superior rim of the acetabulum (SRA) observing the morphologic characteristics of each cross-sections of the iliac columns was cut.
