- W2334777737 abstract "Study Design This study evaluates and compares the stiffness of two cervical spine fixation techniques. Objectives This biomechanical study was carried out to compare the interspinous and Dewar cervical spine fixation techniques. Summary of Background Data Interspinous wiring is a commonly used method of fixation in the cervical spine. The Dewar technique is less commonly known and practiced, and clinical experience has suggested that it may be a more stable technique. Methods Cervical spine specimens stabilized with the interspinous and “Dewar” techniques were biomechanically tested in flexion and in torsion. Stiffness and energy absorption under moderate loads were compared. The Dewar technique uses contoured double corticocancellous iliac grafts as internal graft/splints fixed to the spine with threaded pins and wire. The interspinous technique is a single interspinous wire loop. Eleven fresh human cervical spines were harvested from cadavers. The spines were destabilized at C4-C5 by sectioning all tissue except the anterior longitudinal ligament. Each fixation technique was applied alternatively and tested on each spine. Results In torsion testing (n = 5), the Dewar fusion was 61% stiffer than the interspinous technique (P < 0.02). Dewar: 11.3 N/mm (s.d. 4.9 N/mm) and interspinous: 8.4 N/mm (SD 3.3 N/mm). In flexion testing (n = 6), the Dewar technique was 35% stiffer than the interspinous technique (P < 0.10). Dewar: 655.4 Nmm/degree (SD 293 Nmm/degree) and interspinous: 406.8 Nmm/degree (SD 113.0 Nmm/degree). Energy absorption with the interspinous technique was greater in flexion (P < 0.10) and in torsion (P < 0.005), indicating more deformation with the interspinous technique. There was no statistically significant difference between the means of specimens tested first and those tested second independently of the fixation technique. Conclusions These tests indicate that the Dewar cervical spine fixation is stiffer than the single interspinous wire is both flexion and particularly torsion. This project is the only biomechanical study of the Dewar technique that we are aware of, and the results support the clinical findings regarding the effectiveness of this technique." @default.
