摘要:
目的 观察骨组织库技术保存自体颅骨在颅骨缺损修补术中的临床疗效及安全性。 方法 收集南方医科大学顺德医院神经外科自2019年9月~2022年7月行幕上颅骨缺损修补手术的病例为研究对象,依据修补材料不同分为自体颅骨组(经骨组织库保存的自体颅骨修补手术,n=30)和三维钛网组(经3D数字塑形钛网的颅骨修补手术,n=30),两组患者一般资料具有可比性(P > 0.05)。对比两组术后1月内感染率、硬膜外积液/积血发生率、手术切口愈合不良发生率、癫痫发生率、脑内出血发生率等直接手术并发症指标,并计算“自体颅骨组”基于头颅CT影像的骨吸收率。 结果 两组患者均取得术后至少6月的随访,自体颅骨组与三维钛网组术后1月内手术相关感染率(0例vs 0例)、硬膜外积液/积血发生率(3例vs7例)、手术切口愈合不良发生率(0例vs 0例)、术后癫痫发生率(0例vs 0例)、脑出血发生率(0例vs1例)的差异均无统计学意义(P > 0.05)。术后6月自体颅骨组发生骨吸收4例(13.3%),其中1例严重骨吸收患者需要人工材料再次修补。两组间总并发症发生率的差异无统计学意义[7例(23%)vs 8例(35%),P > 0.05]。 结论 经骨组织库技术保存自体颅骨是颅骨修补术安全有效的方式之一,但仍存在骨吸收风险,临床上可根据患者具体情况作出选择。 Abstract:Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of autogenous skull preserved by bone tissue bank technology in cranioplasty. Methods Hospitalized patients with supratentorial skull defect repair surgery in the Department of Neurosurgery, Shunde Hospital of Southern Medical University from September 2019 to July 2022 were enrolled. According to different repair materials, the patients were divided into the autologous skull repair group (n=30, autologous skull repair surgery preserved by bone tissue bank) and the 3D titanium mesh group (n=30, skull repair surgery with 3D digital shaped titanium mesh). The general data of the two groups was comparable (P > 0.05). Indicators of complications directly related to surgery including infection rate within 1 month after surgery, incidence of epidural effusion/hematoma, incidence of poor healing of surgical incision, epilepsy incidence and incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage were compared between the two groups and bone absorptivity based on skull CT images was measured in the autologous skull repair group. Results Both groups were followed up for at least 6 months after surgery. There was no significant difference in the infection rate within 1 month after surgery (0 case vs 0 case), incidence of epidural effusion/hematoma (3 cases vs 7 cases), incidence of poor healing of surgical incision (0 case vs 0 case), epilepsy incidence (0 case vs 0 case) and incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage (0 case vs 1 case) between the autologous skull group and 3D titanium mesh group (P > 0.05). Bone resorption occurred in 4 patients (13.3%) in the autogenous skull group 6 months after operation, and one of the patients with severe bone resorption required re-repair with artificial materials. There was no significant difference in the total complication rate between the autologous skull group and 3D titanium mesh group [7 cases (23%) vs 8 cases (35%), P > 0.05]. Conclusion The technique of preserving autogenous skull through bone tissue bank is one of the safe and effective methods in cranioplasty while remaining a risk of bone resorption, it can be an alternative depending on the specific situation of patients clinically. -

Figure 1. A case of autologous skull flap repair for right frontotemporal top skull defect. A: Separation along the potential space between dura and periosteal; B: Autogenous skull flap with connecting plate (several holes drilled into the skull plate); C: The autologous cranial flap was fixed and the flap was retained with periosteal suture.

Figure 2. A case of bone resorption occurred after bilateral frontotemporal autogenous cranial flap repair. A: Head CT scan 9 months after surgery showed severe absorption of bilateral autogenous skull flap, with the right side being obvious; B: Three-dimensional CT reconstruction showed obvious absorption of the right autogenous skull flap and scattered small skull fragments on the bone window; C: Three-dimensional titanium mesh was used to repair the right skull defect.

Figure 3. A follow-up case after autologous cranioplasty. A: CT scan of the head 1 week after surgery showed good alignment of the autogenous skull, and the autogenous bone flap and skull suture were obvious (△); B: Three-dimensional CT reconstruction showed obvious suture between autogenous bone flap and skull 1 week after surgery (*); C: Head CT showed that the gap between autogenous bone flap and skull was blurred, and partial bone healing 7 months after surgery(☆); D: Three-dimensional CT reconstruction showed local narrowing of the space between autogenous bone flap and skull, and partial bone healing 7 months after surgery (☆).
