Patients with fracture can recover quickly by choosing "spinal jack" first.
A 59-year-old taipower field worker 1 unfortunately fell from a height at work many years ago and suffered from long-term pain for fear of surgery, which seriously affected his field work. After communication and evaluation with doctors, he accepted spinal stent implantation, and his postoperative pain was greatly improved, and he returned to work smoothly and continued to serve. Xie Boqin, director of spinal surgery at St. Martin's Hospital, said that traditional spinal fracture surgery needs to open a big wound for decompression and implant steel nails for fixation. It will take several months for the fracture to heal before the patient can resume his daily work. At present, many doctors have begun to introduce European minimally invasive jack reduction. Spinal jack can be used to treat osteoporotic fracture, cancer metastasis and traumatic explosive fracture. All of them can be placed in a minimally invasive way (the wound is about 0.7 cm), and the collapsed vertebral body can be easily propped up by the principle of "jack", which can correct the local vertebral body deformation and inject special high-strength bone cement to make the broken vertebral body heal immediately. Not only is the wound small, but the patient only needs to be hospitalized for one day, which is better for relieving pain and quickly returning to normal work and rest. There are about 6.5438+0.5 million new cases of vertebral compression fractures in Taiwan Province Province every year, mostly elderly people. Patients usually have severe pain, hunchback, inconvenient walking, or gastrointestinal and urinary tract symptoms due to poor walking, and may even lead to death! An 80-year-old grandmother named Zhuo suffered from severe osteoporosis a few days ago. After a severe cough, she suddenly had a sharp pain in her back, so that she could hardly walk. Five days later, her cold recovered and her back pain was still there. She felt that something was wrong and went to the hospital urgently. After examination, it was found that 12 vertebra had collapsed. Moreover, the height of the vertebrae collapsed by half, almost compressing the nerves. Later, the "minimally invasive spinal jack" was used to restore and reshape the spinal fracture of the grandmother, and then medical bone cement was injected simultaneously. The night after the operation, grandma was able to get out of bed and move. After three months of follow-up, she has been able to walk normally.
