ABSTRACT Objective: This study aims to evaluate angular progression of patients with a diagnosis of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS), that await surgical treatment. Methods: This is an observational and descriptive study. Data were collected for age at initial surgical indication, initial date and Cobb angle, date and Cobb angle of the follow-up visit, time elapsed between the initial and follow-up visit, and type of curve. All recorded Cobb angles were reviewed by the authors. Results: 86.1% of the individuals were women, the mean age of indication for surgical treatment was 13.34 years. The most common type of curve was Lenke 3 and the one that progressed the most was Lenke 4. The general average of annual progression was 9.89 degrees for the primary curves and 12.32 for the secondary curves, and the follow-up was, on average, 35.77 months. Conclusion: The progression of the magnitude of the curve increases during the wait for the definitive treatment of AIS, no matter which group of the Lenke classification the curve belongs to. The secondary curves present a progression rate of 12.32º/year, higher than the main curve, which presents a rate of 9.89º/year. The waiting time has been increasing over the years, which is evident compared to older publications. Level of Evidence IV; Type of Study: Prognostic Study.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the influence of intertransverse septal anesthetic block (BASIT) on postoperative pain in lumbar spine surgery. Methods: The study was carried out prospectively and observationally. Were included 105 patients who underwent posterior lumbar spine surgery, divided into two groups: 35 patients in the experimental group, who received BASIT at the end of the procedure, and 70 patients in the control group, without BASIT. Patients were assessed for low back pain (visual pain scale), opioid consumption on the 1st postoperative day, complications related to the procedure, and length of stay after surgery. Results: The sample consisted of 46 men and 59 women, with a mean age of 57.7 years (21 to 90 years). Mean postoperative pain in the experimental group was 1.88, and in the control group 2.11 (p<0.05). There was a trend towards less morphine use in the experimental group with p = 0.053. There was a statistical difference in morphine consumption between patients who did not previously use opioids and those who already used them (p 0.04). There was no difference between the groups regarding length of stay. Conclusion: Anesthetic blockade of the intertransverse septum reduced the consumption of opioids and the levels of low back pain after surgery (p<0.05), with no statistical difference in length of hospital stay or complications related to the technique. Level of Evidence II; Clinical Prospective Study.

ABSTRACT Objective: Evaluate the influence of the most used surgical positioners for lumbar lordosis (LL) in asymptomatic individuals. Methods: Cross-sectional study based on demographic data and radiographic parameters of asymptomatic individuals. For this study, 16 volunteers, 15 males, and one female were selected, and the average age was 24.6 years. They were submitted to lateral radiographs of the lumbar spine in orthostasis in use of the following positioners: gel cushion, gel cushion with hip extension, four-point Relton-Hall and Wilson-type positioner. Results: The mean LL in the orthostatic position was 58.76º, whereas in the gel cushion positioner it was 52.51; on the gel cushion with hip extension of 58.23º, Relton-Hall/4points 37.63º and, finally, on the Wilson-type positioner of 40.87º. An average reduction of 5.42º of the LL was observed when positioning on the gel cushion in relation to the orthostasis. In the linear regression analysis, the data presented statistically significant results (p<0.05), demonstrating that the L4-S1 segment influences 60% in LL. Conclusion: The positioner with gel cushion and hip extension reproduces an LL similar to physiological values. Relton-Hall and Wilson-type positioners with hip flexion promote hypolordotic positioning compared to basal lordosis in orthostasis. Hip extension alone generated a 5.96º increase in the subject’s lordosis. The L4-S1 segment has a 60% influence on the LL when the individuals are in the positioners. Level of evidence III; Controlled cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT Objective: Evaluate the prognostic factors associated with therapeutic failure and recurrence in pyogenic spondylodiscitis (PS). Methods: A historical cohort study was conducted in a reference Brazilian hospital for locomotor system and neurodevelopmental diseases. All patients with PS treated between January 1999 and December 2018 and followed for at least one year were included. PS was defined based on clinical, laboratory, and radiological criteria. Microbiological data and clinical outcomes at the end of follow-up were also collected and analyzed. Results: Fifty patients (mean age 50.94 ± 15.84 years, men 76.00%) were included. After twelve months of follow-up, therapeutic failure was observed in 24.00% (n = 12) and recurrence in 18.00% (n = 09) patients. Among those who were cured, residual symptoms were found in 50.00% (19/38). No deaths were observed. After multivariate analysis, therapeutic failure was associated with the prescription of antibiotic therapy before culture results (p = 0.0153), spinal cord compression (p = 0.0053), and sensory deficits (p = 0.0341). Furthermore, recurrence was associated with previous nonspinal surgeries (p = 0.0350) and spinal cord compression (p = 0.0447). Conclusion: PS causes significant morbidity. The prognosis depends mainly on the clinical presentation at admission, especially when associated with spinal cord compression, which reinforces the importance of early diagnosis.

ABSTRACT Objective: Characterize the functionality and disability of individuals complaining of low back pain at a physiotherapy service. Method: The study included individuals who complained of low back pain, treated at a physical therapy school clinic, over the age of 18. An online questionnaire was applied, with sociodemographic questions and questions corresponding to the codes of the brief “International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health” (ICF) for low back pain. Results: The total sample was 47 individuals, with an average of 65.31 ± 3.8 years, the majority were women (n = 40; 85.1%). The categories: pain functions (b280) and functions related to joint mobility (b710) had a higher prevalence of reports of severe to complete disabilities (89.5% and 55.3%, respectively). The other categories, in general, had a higher prevalence of mild to moderate dysfunction, with a greater report of dysfunction for the categories energy and impulse functions (b130), sleep functions (b134), emotional functions (b152), (76.6%, 66%, 76.6% respectively). Conclusion: The ICF core set for low back pain can be used electronically and allows you to evaluate and observe the various factors that are related to pain, enabling reflection and directing multidisciplinary interventions for the treatment of low back pain. Level of evidence III; Study of nonconsecutive patients; without consistently applied reference “gold” standard.

ABSTRACT Objective: Evaluation of the profile of the population with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) treated at a center specializing in spine surgery in Curitiba-PR. Methods: Prospective multicenter study, being analyzed, at the moment, only data from the center in question. All patients referred from the basic health service for evaluation of deformity underwent panoramic radiography of the total spine to evaluate the curvature using the Cobb method, evaluation of skeletal maturity using the Risser classification, and the classification of scoliosis using the Lenke classification. Clinical photographs of all patients and an assessment of the quality of life using the SRS-30 questionnaire were also taken. Results: Thirty patients with scoliosis and a mean age of 14.63 ± 3 years were evaluated. Prevalence of female:male 1.5:1. Patients had a mean Cobb of 45.96°, and most were close to Risser 4 skeletal maturity (48.3%). 60% had a thoracic curve (Lenke 1), and 13.3% had a double curve (Lenke 3 or 6). 63.3% of cases had a delay in medical care, taking an average of 18 months between referral and consultation with a specialist. 60% of patients were referred for surgical treatment after the first appointment. Conclusion: The population sample of this center follows the literature. A Cobb >40° in the first consultation with a specialist and a high referral rate to surgery suggest the failure of early diagnosis and the need for public policies for better knowledge and assistance for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

ABSTRACT Objective: The study correlates angular radiographic measurements and measurements from photographs of the trunk of patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Methods: a cross-sectional study of 10 patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and indication for surgical treatment in follow-up in the spine sector of HCRFMRP-USP. They were evaluated through measurements taken from clinical photographs of the patient’s torso and angles on panoramic radiographs of the spine. Results: only the correlation between the axilla angle (AHA) and the proximal thoracic curve and main thoracic curve was observed in the sample studied. No correlation was observed between the other compared variables. The study was carried out in a sample with a small number of patients, whose objective was to carry out a pilot study to explore this topic. Conclusion: the analysis of deformities should consider the aesthetic aspect and radiographic evaluation; however, in this study, no statistical correlation was observed between these parameters. Level of Evidence IV; Case Series Study.

ABSTRACT Objective: evaluate the correlation between main sacropelvic alignment measurements and pelvic retroversion reduction and assessing Lamartina Square effectiveness in choosing the proximal instrumentation level. Methods: sample comprising 21 patients with high-grade L5 -S1 spondylolisthesis subjected to arthrodesis with instrumentation from January 2004 to December 2016. Patients’ demographic data, surgery type, complications, sagittal alignment parameters, Severity Index and Lamartina Square were recorded before surgery and in the last follow-up. Data processed in SPSS 22.0, with different means were calculated through Student’s t test, for paired data. Linear correlation analysis was performed based on Spearman’s coefficient. P <0.05 was statically significant. Results: there was significant improvement in the slip and Dubousset’s lumbosacral kyphosis angles (> 100° in the last postoperative follow-up). There was significant reduction of slip rate ( and in the L4 and L5 Severity Index, which highlighted strong correlation to pelvic tilt, mismatch and slip angle. Severity index also showed strong inverse correlation between Dubousset’s lumbosacral kyphosis angle and sacral slope. Conclusion: L5 Severity Index and Lamartina Square are important variables for preoperative planning of patients with high-grade lumbar spondylolisthesis. Level of Evidence IV; Case Series.

Methods: sample comprising 21 patients with high-grade L5 -S1 spondylolisthesis subjected to arthrodesis with instrumentation from January 2004 to December 2016. Patients’ demographic data, surgery type, complications, sagittal alignment parameters, Severity Index and Lamartina Square were recorded before surgery and in the last follow-up. Data processed in SPSS 22.0, with different means were calculated through Student’s t test, for paired data. Linear correlation analysis was performed based on Spearman’s coefficient. P <0.05 was statically significant. Results: there was significant improvement in the slip and Dubousset’s lumbosacral kyphosis angles (> 100° in the last postoperative follow-up). There was significant reduction of slip rate ( and in the L4 and L5 Severity Index, which highlighted strong correlation to pelvic tilt, mismatch and slip angle. Severity index also showed strong inverse correlation between Dubousset’s lumbosacral kyphosis angle and sacral slope. Conclusion: L5 Severity Index and Lamartina Square are important variables for preoperative planning of patients with high-grade lumbar spondylolisthesis.

ABSTRACT Objective: Establish the frequency of incidences, management, and description of the relationship between thoracic and abdominal trauma and spinal injury. Methods: Observational, retrospective study of quantitative analysis carried out through the analysis of medical records of patients who presented spinal fractures and associated thoracoabdominal injuries. The participants were treated at a reference hospital in trauma care in Curitiba-PR from 2019 to 2021. The data were from patients with spine fractures referring to gender, age, trauma mechanism, fracture classification, associated injuries, Frankel neurological scale, and proposed treatment. Results: There was a predominance of male patients (84.5%) and young, with a mean age of 37.3 years, victims of car accidents. The main vertebrae affected were the lumbar spine (36.8%) and thoracic spine (36.2%). The most prevalent associated injuries were extra vertebral and cervical spine fractures. The most observed thoracic injuries were hemothorax, chest contusion, and fracture of multiple costal arches, while the most observed abdominal injuries were kidney injury, hemoperitoneum/abdominal hematoma, and liver injury. Of the total patients analyzed, 68% had fractures with associated thoracoabdominal injuries. Conclusion: Abdominal and thoracic injuries are frequently associated with spine fractures, with an association of 14.6% and 53.4%, respectively. The production of knowledge on the subject contributes to creating action plans to optimize the management and reduce the morbidity and mortality of these cases.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Sagittal balance was measured by Hardacker`s et al. using the occipital method COBB C1-C2, C2-C3, C3-C4, C4-C5, C5-C6, C6-C7 in a sample of asymptomatic patients without neck and shoulder pain. In other recent studies, measurements of cervical sagittal balance included several radiographic parameters. Objective: To compare the cervical sagittal balance in groups of patients with and without neck pain submitted to cervical radiography with the upper limbs in flexion. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, quantitative, prospective, descriptive study with radiographic analysis of 50 adults aged between 30 to 70 years old. The group was divided into Group 1: without neck pain, and Group 2: with neck pain. All answered a questionnaire about age and the presence or absence of neck pain. Exclusion criteria were: inadequate X-Ray image, deformity or previous spine surgery, limited shoulder mobility, and individuals younger than 30 and older than 70. The radiographic parameters evaluated were: COBB, TIA ( THORACIC INLET ANGLE), T1 SLOPE, NECKTILT, and COG-C7 with no neck pain. α = 5% (significance when p <0.05). Results: The MANN WHITNEY nonparametric test showed no significant differences between Cobb GROUPS (p= 0.7452), T1 SLOPE GROUPS (p=0.1410), NECKTILT GROUPS (p=0.0852) and GROUPS THORACIC INLET ANGLE (p=0.1789). Conclusion: There was a significant difference only between COG-C7 GROUPS (cm) (p=0.0013). The analysis of the obtained data showed statistical significance in the variation in the COG-C7 groups. Level of Evidence II; Prospective comparative study.
