| Summary: | In the period from 1990 to 2007 surgical treatment of thoracal spine hernias were lead at 58 patients. Some kinds of surgical approaches were used: standard back access with laminectomy — at 21 patients, transthoracic access — at 2, lateral extracavitar approach — at 5, transfaset pediculosaved approach — at 7, lateral transpedicular approach — at 23. Result, estimated according the scale, show patient’s with thoracal myeloradiculopathy condition: excellent result (75–100% according to scale) was matched at 9 patients, good result (50–74%) was obtained at 34 patients, satisfactory result (25–49%) was observed at 9 patients, the state of 4 patients remained without changes (0–24%), at 2 patients result were estimated as bad (less than 0%). Estimation scale application at patients with thoracic spine hernias (scale of thoracic myeloradiculopathy) allowed to objectivate surgical treatment results, and also to compare them with thoracic spine hernias treatment results, using different approaches. |
