Review Meta Analysis Comparative Study
Comparison of smith-petersen osteotomy, pedicular subtraction osteotomy, and poly-segmental wedge osteotomy in treating rigid thoracolumbar kyphotic deformity in ankylosing spondylitis a systematic review and meta-analysis.
This study aimed to compare Smith-Petersen osteotomy (SPO), poly-segmental wedge osteotomy (PWO) and pedicular subtraction osteotomy (PSO) in patients with rigid thoracolumbar kyphosis primarily caused by ankylosing spondylitis. The efficiency, efficacy and safety of these three osteotomies have not been compared systematically, and no illness-oriented surgical type selection strategy for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis related to non-angular kyphosis has been reported. ⋯ To treat rigid thoracolumbar kyphosis, PSO showed higher efficiency and efficacy than SPO, and PWO had a higher efficacy than SPO. The risk of local biomechanical complications was greater in PWO than PSO. Bleeding was more severe in PSO than in SPO or PWO. The incidence of neural complications and systemic complications was similar.
