Risk Factors for Poor Prognosis of Cervical Spinal Cord Injury with Subaxial Cervical Spine Fracture-Dislocation After Surgical Treatment: A CONSORT Study.

BACKGROUND The objective of the study was to identify risk factors for poor prognosis of cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) with subaxial cervical fracture-dislocation after surgical treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 60 cervical SCI patients with subaxial cervical fracture-dislocation were primarily included in the study from April 2013 to April 2018. All the enrolled subjects received surgical treatment. The enrolled patients with complete follow-up record were divided into 2 groups based on the neural function prognosis: a non-functional restoration group and a functional restoration group. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for poor prognosis of SCI after surgical treatment. RESULTS Fifty-five subjects were included in this study, and the follow-up time ranged from 8.5 to 44.5 months. A total of 25 subjects were categorized into the non-functional restoration group and 30 subjects into the functional restoration group. According to the results of multivariate regression analysis, time from injury to operation (more than 3.8 days), subaxial cervical injury classification (SLIC, score more than 7.5), and maximum spinal cord compression (MSCC, more than 55.8%) are independent risk factors for poor prognosis of SCI after surgical treatment (p<0.05), with AUCs of 0.95 (time from injury to operation), 0.91 (SLIC score), and 0.96 (MSCC). CONCLUSIONS Time from injury to operation (more than 3.8 days), SLIC score (more than 7.5), and MSCC (more than 55.8%) are independent risk factors for poor prognosis of SCI with subaxial cervical fracture-dislocation after surgical treatment.
