PURPOSE: To evaluate whether a new PEEK vertebral body replacement can maintain the sagittal alignment as an anterior column reconstruction device in thoracic and lumbar spinal defects due to trauma or tumor.
METHODS: Retrospective review of 48 patients who underwent a corpectomy between T5 and L5 due to trauma or tumor and were stabilized with the new PEEK vertebral body replacement, between 2013 and 2017. We excluded patients who underwent a corpectomy for infection or degenerative disease and patients without complete follow-up in our institution. The primary outcome was the bi-segmental kyphotic angle (BKA). Secondary outcomes were the assessment of pedicle screw loosening, cage height, and subsidence or tilting of the cage. The clinical outcomes were assessed through the COMI-Score, EuroQol-5D, and Karnofsky indexes. Bony fusion and complications were registered.
RESULTS: After the surgery BKA decreased by 12.1° (p < 0.001). At the end of the follow-up, we observed a mean loss of reduction of 1.6° (p = 0.002). This was accompanied by an increase in subsidence of 2.1 mm (p < 0.001) and mean tilting of the cage of 1.4° (p = 0.003). The height of the cage and other parameters did not experience any changes. Clinically, the COMI-Score (p = 0.02) and the EuroQol-5D Index (p = 0.012) showed significant improvement, same as Karnofsky-Index (p = 0.015) at final follow-up. The fusion rate according to Bridwell was 92.1%. The 2% late complications were related to implant malpositioning.
CONCLUSION: The new PEEK expandable vertebral body replacement is effective and safe in thoracic and lumbar anterior column reconstruction in tumor and trauma diseases.
