Traumatic spinal cord injury (tSCI) is a profoundly debilitating condition necessitating prompt intervention. However, the optimal acute treatment strategy remains subject of debate. The aim this overview to elucidate prevailing trends in tSCI management. We provided an using peer-reviewed studies. Early surgical (<24h after trauma) appears beneficial compared delayed surgery. Nonetheless, there insufficient evidence supporting positive influence ultra-early surgery on neurological outcome...
Abstract Background Early surgery in traumatic spinal fracture treatment may facilitate prompt mobilization, encountering affiliated complications. However, the safety and benefits of early are being questioned trauma patients. Therefore, objective this retrospective study is to investigate effect surgical timing on perioperative complications these Methods Spinal patients who underwent between 2010 2020 two Dutch Level-I centers were included retrospectively divided into an (< 24 h),...
It was not even a century ago when spinal cord injury (SCI) would inevitably result in fatal outcome, particularly for those with complete SCI. Throughout history, there have been extensive endeavours to change the prospects SCI patients by performing surgery, though many believed that no way alter catastrophic course of To this day, debate regarding efficacy surgery improving neurological outcome persists, along discussions about timing surgical intervention.
Patients with complete traumatic spinal cord injury (tSCI) have a low potential to recover ambulation. Motor level recovery, adjacent the of injury, could influence functional independency. This study addresses whether surgical timing influences motor recovery in patients (American Spinal Injury Association [ASIA] Impairment Scale A [AIS A]) and incomplete (AIS B) tSCI. retrospective cohort was performed Netherlands AIS A/B tSCI (C2-L2), who consecutively underwent surgery between January...
