BACKGROUND: Pediatric cervical kyphosis is a distinct entity with diverse etiology (congenital, syndromic, traumatic, metabolic or neoplastic). Surgical correction in pediatric population is challenging due to their growing spine and low blood volume.
PURPOSE: To analyse their presentation, surgical techniques and outcome of pediatric cervical kyphosis and systematically review the pertinent literature.
DESIGN: Retrospective study.
PATIENT SAMPLE: 16 patients aged ≤ 18 years who underwent correction for cervical kyphosis between 2009 and 2021.
OUTCOME MEASURES: Nurick's grading, mJOA score and Global cobb's angle.
METHODS: Clinical parameters (Nurick grading and mJOA score) were noted from database on admission and on follow-up at 6 months. Radiological parameters of assessment included Global Cobb's angle. The C2-C7 Cobb angle was the angle of C2 vertebra lower end plate and C7 vertebra lower end plate. For C1-2 kyphosis, anterior border of C1 and anterior border of C2 angle was taken. Radiographic parameters were studied on CT and radiographs of cervical spine to assess for stability, the degree of deformity correction and fusion status at 6 months follow-up.
RESULTS: 16 patients with mean age of 14.2 ± 3 years (9 syndromic, 4 post-traumatic, 2 metabolic and 1 post-laminectomy). All underwent surgical correction, 6 underwent Antero-posterior spinal fusion, 6 underwent Posterior spinal fusion and 4 underwent Anterior spinal fusion. There was significant clinical improvement postoperatively with-Nurick grade (pre vs. post: 2.8 vs. 1.8, p = 0.004), mJOA score (pre vs. post: 11.3 vs. 14, p = 0.003). There was significant deformity correction of Cobb's angle from 40.7 ± 26.5° to 14.9 ± 10° (p = 0.001). Early complications included intraoperative hemodynamic instability (3) and wound complication (1). Mean follow-up was 76.9 ± 59.3 months.
CONCLUSION: Pediatric cervical kyphosis is a debilitating condition which are managed surgically. Approach has to be individualized to the pathology and good results can be achieved. Patients should be screened for syndromic association and followed-up regularly.
