Objectives: To evaluate the sagittal alignment of cervical spine in AIS. Summary of Literature Review: Little has been known about the sagittal curve patterns of cervical spine in AIS patients. Materials and Methods: One-hundred-thirty-three AIS patients were checked by scanographs and followed up for more than 2 years were divided into cervical kyphosis ( +5 ), lordosis ( -5 ) and straight (-4 ~+4 ) groups according to the sagittal curves of cervical spine (C2~C7). Each group was evaluated for thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, sagittal balance and Cobb s angle on coronal plane. Of the patients, 49 were treated by braces, 84 were surgically corrected (rod derotation in 52, direct vertebral rotation (DVR) in 32). Results: At the initial radiographs, cervical kyphosis was found in 97, lordosis in 23 and straight in 13 patients. In the kyphosis group, cervical kyphosis showed typical patterns of angular kyphosis. Thoracic and upper T-kyphosis (T1~T5) were lower than those in the cervical lordosis group (p=0.000, 0.001, respectively.) Other factors showed no significant differences between the groups. Patients treated by conservative management or by rod derotation had no significant differences in cervical kyphosis during the follow-up periods, though the thoracic hypokyphosis was surgically corrected. On the contrary, patients who were treated by DVR restored cervical lordosis (14/32=43.8%) from initial state showed significant differences in both conservative and rod derotation groups (p=0.008, 0.002, respectively) Conclusions: Cervical kyphosis in AIS was a compensatory curve correlated with both thoracic hypokyphosis and rotational deformity. Rotational corrections should be considered during the surgical treatment. Key Words: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), Cervical kyphosis, Thoracic rotation, Direct vertebral rotation (DVR) 서론 특발성척추측만증은관상면, 시상면및횡단면변형이모두포함된 3차원척추변형이다. 그러나, 현재까지측만증의 3차원변형및근-골격계에대한논문대부분은흉추및요추에대해서만국한되어있을뿐, 측만증이경추에미치는영향에대한연구는극히미진한실정이다. 이는, 임상적으로관상면상경추를포함하는측만증은극히낮은빈도를보이기때문에경추만곡에대한관심은흉추및요추에비해상대적으로적을수밖에없었으며, 대부분의논문이시상면상제 7 경추 ( 또는제 1흉추 ) 를기준으로하였기때문에시상면상경추만곡은관심의대상에서제외될수밖에없었다. 시상면상경추만곡에대한이전의문헌을살펴보면 Hilibrand 등 1) 은흉추에저후만증이있는환자에서경추후만의빈도가높다고하였으며, Canavese 등 2) 은흉추척추측만증에서 후방고정술로흉추후만이교정되어도경추후만은교정되지 않았다고보고하였다. 만약, 특발성척추측만증에서경추후만 Received: September 17, 2012 Revised: November 22, 2012 Accepted: June 5, 2013 Published Online: June 30, 2013 Corresponding author: Sang Min Lee Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Cheju Halla General Hospital, 65 Doryeongro [Yeon-dong], Jeju-city, Jeju Special Self-governing Provine TEL: 82-64-740-5030, FAX: 82-64-743-3110 E-mail: snoopy5@unitel.co.kr This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial License (http:// creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/) which permits unrestricted non-commercial use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.

Sang Min Lee et al Volume 20 Number 2 June 2013 을야기하는원인이오로지흉추의저후만증이라면, 수술로흉추의저후만증을교정하였을경우자연적으로경추의후만도교정되어야할것이다. 그럼에도불구하고경추의후만이교정되지않았다면다른원인이존재할수도있다고저자들은생각하였다. 이에저자들은, 특발성척추측만증환자의시상면상경추만곡을측정하여, 척추측만증의어떤요인이경추후만과연관되어있는지를조사하였으며, 치료방법에따른시상면상경추만곡의변화여부도살펴보았다. 대상및방법 특발성척추측만증환자중기립측면척추전장사진 (lateral scanographs) 으로 2년이상추시관찰한 133례를대상으로하였으며, 이때, 보존적으로치료한환자는 49례, 수술적가료를시행한환자는 84례이었다. 수술한환자들은모두척추경나사고정술로교정하였으며, 이중, 52례는강봉감염술 (rod derotation) 로치료하였고 32례는추체회전술 (direct vertebral rotation, DVR) 로교정하였다. 초진시시상면상경추만곡의유형에따라, 경추후만 ( +5 o ), 일자형 (-4 o ~+4 o ), 전만 ( -5 o ), 세군으로나누어조사하였다. 이때, 측면척추전장사진 (lateral scanographs) 은환자의주먹을쇄골에얹혀서찍거나, 어깨를전방 30도굴곡하여손을수평대위에올려놓고촬영하였다. 저자들은환자의자세에따른만곡의변화, 불분명한만곡의유형및측정상의오차로인하여후만군으로분류되는오류를최소화하기위해경추후만을 5도이상인경우로국한시켰다. 각군별로관상면상측만증의유형및만곡의크기 (Cobb 각 ), 시상면상흉추후만각 (C7 상부골단판 ~T12 하부골단판 ) 및요추전만각 (T12 하부골단판 ~ 제1천추상부골단판 ), 시상면상체간 ( 불 ) 균형여부를측정하여, 경추후만과상관관계를조사하였다. 이때, 시상면상흉추후만이 25도미만인경우를저후만증으로, 이보다큰경우를정상후만으로정하였으며, 시상면상체간균형은제 7 경추추체의중심이시상면상축 ( 제 1천추의후상방모서리에서올린수선 ) 보다전방에위치할경우 (+) 로, 후방에위치할경우 (-) 로표기하여, -2cm~+2cm 사이에위치할경우시상면상균형을이룬것으로보았으며, 이범위를벗어난경우에불균형되었다고규정하였다. 이외에도, 최종추시사진상보존적치료및수술적치료에따른시상면상경추만곡의변화를조사하였다. 통계학적분석은시상면상경추만곡과흉추 ( 또는요추 ) 만곡의상관관계는 Pearson correlation coefficient 로분석하였으며, 각군간의흉추후만각, Cobb s angle 의비교와치료방법에따 른경추만곡의변화는 Kruskal-Wallis test 로분석하였다. 결과 1. 초진시시상면상경추만곡의유형및각도 초진시경추만곡의유형은후만 97 례 (72.9%), 전만 23 례 (17.3%), 일자형 13 례 (9.8%) 로관찰되어정상적인경추전만 의소실을보인경우는 110 례 (82.7%) 이었다. 이때, 각도 (C2 하 부골단판 ~C7 상부골단판 ) 는평균 6.9±10.2 도후만을보였다. 시상면상제 7 경추는시상면상축에비해평균 9.6mm 후방에, 제 2 경추는평균 4.4mm 전방에위치하였으며, 시상면상균형 (-2cm~+2cm) 은 71 례, 후방불균형 (>-2cm) 은 44 례, 전방불균 형 (>+2cm) 은 18 례로관찰되었다. 흉추 (C7 상부골단판 ~T12 하 부골단판 ) 는평균 27.7 도의후만으로측정되었으며, 이때, 흉추 저후만증 (< 25 도 ) 은 44 례, 정상후만은 89 례이었다 (Table 1). 경추의후만군에서시상면상만곡의모양은 상부경추후 만 - 하부경추전만 의특징적인 angular kyphosis 의형태를보 였으며, 이때전이추체 (transitional vertebra) 는제 4 경추 63 례, 제 5 경추 32 례, 제 3 경추 2 례순이었다. 경추만곡의크기는평 균 11.6±6.1 도후만으로측정되었다. 시상면상제 7 경추는평 균 11.9mm 후방에, 제 2 경추는평균 2.5mm 전방에위치하였으 며, 시상면상균형은 50 례, 후방불균형 35 례, 전방불균형 12 례 로관찰되었다. 흉추후만은평균 25.7 도이었으며, 흉추저후만 증 (< 25 도 ) 은 47 례, 정상후만은 50 례이었다. 경추의전만군에서경추만곡은평균 10.3±5.9 도전만으로 측정되었다. 시상면상제 7 경추는평균 2.5mm 후방에, 제 2 경추 Fig. 1.

(C, D) The patient was operated by pedicle screw fixation with rod derotation maneuver. Thoracic hypokyphosis was well corrected to normokyphosis of 34 degrees. However, cervical kyphosis was not changed though thoracic hyphokyphosis was well corrected. Preoperative cervical kyphosis of 18 degrees was slightly changed to kyphosis of 15 degrees with no significant difference. 38 www.krspine.org

Winter 등 3) 은척추측만증에서흉추의후만증이감소된경우경추의전만이소실된다고보고하였으며, Berthonnaud 등 4) 은시상면상경추만곡은흉추의후만과비교적약한 (r=0.36) 의상관관계가있다고보고하였다. Takeshima 등 5) 은시상면상경 추만곡을전만, 일자형, 후만, 상부경추전만-하부경추후만, 상부경추후만-하부경추전만의다섯가지유형으로구분하였으며, Penning 6) 은머리와척추의상대적위치에따라경추만곡이변하여, 머리를체간에비해전방으로이전시키는기전은 상부경추신전-하부경추굴곡 의모양을보이며, 반대로머리를후방으로이전시키는기전은 상부경추굴곡-하부경추신전 의소견으로나타난다고보고하였다. 이전논문들을종합해보면, 정상적인경추만곡은시상면상전만을보이나, 독립적으로존재하기보다는흉추후만의크기, 체간균형또는정면주시, 머리균형을유지하기위한기전등, 여러원인에의해변화될수있고개인및연령에따른넓은편차를보여정상적인경추전만의소실을보이는경우는약 7~40% 까지보고되어있다. 특발성척추측만증은 3차원척추변형으로시상면상흉추의저후만증과요추의저전만증을동반하는경우가흔하다. 임상적으로경추에후만증이종종관찰되었음에도불구하고, 위저자 40 www.krspine.org

Sang Min Lee et al Volume 20 Number 2 June 2013 수있다. 척추내적요인으로는, 시상면상경추후만과흉추의저후만증이연관되어있다는문헌들이보고되고있다. Erkan 등 11) 은정상성인척추의 30% 에서경추전만이소실된소견을보였으며흉추저후만증과연관되었다고보고하였으며, Hilibrand 등 1) 은척추측만증환자에서경추후만과흉추저후만증이연관되어있다고하였으나, 술전흉추의저후만증환자는술후경추후만이진행되지않은반면, 정상적인흉추후만또는과후만환자는술후경추의후만이증가되었다고보고하였다. Canavese 등 2) 은흉추척추측만증에서후방고정술로흉추후만이교정되어도경추후만은교정되지않았다고보고하였으나, 그이유를설명하지못하였다. 본연구의결과에서도술전흉추의저후만증과경추의후만과는유의한상관관계를보였으나, 강봉감염술 (rod derotation) 로흉추저후만증을교정하였음에도경추후만은의미있는변화를보이지않았다. 반면, 추체회전술 (direct vertebral rotation, DVR) 로교정한환자에서는술후경추후만의빈도가현저히줄었으며, 만곡의크기도의미있게교정되었다 (p=0.018, Kruskal-Wallis test). 강봉감염술은강력한관상면및시상면상교정을얻을수있으나회전교정은거의효과가없다고알려진반면, 추체회전술은강봉감염술의장점에회전교정을추가적으로얻을수있는술식이다. 12) 본연구에서추체회전술과강봉감염술사이에경추후만교정에현저한차이를보였다는것은두술식의근본적인차이, 즉, 흉추에서의회전교정이경추후만변형을호전시키는데긍정적으로작용했으며, 이는특발성척추측만증에서경추후만은흉추의회전변형이연관되어있다는것을의미하는것이다. 현재로서는본연구의시상면상 angular kyphosis 를보이는경추만곡이향후임상적으로어떤결과를가져올지는예단할수없다. 다만, 이러한현상이경추의조기퇴행성변화또는경-흉추부동통과연관되어있는지에대해서는중장기적추시관찰을통해연구할필요가있을것으로사료된다. 결론 특발성척추측만증에서시상면상경추만곡은후만을보이는경우가많았으며, 특징적인 상부경추후만-하부경추전만 의 angular kyphosis 형태를보였다. 이는, 일시적현상이아니라추시기간동안지속되는대상성만곡 (compensatory sagittal curves) 이었다. 경추후만은흉추의저후만증과연관이있었으나, 수술 ( 강봉감염술 ) 로흉추의저후만증을교정하여도특별히교정되지않았다. 그러나, 추체회전술로치료한환자에서경추후만이의미있게감소되었다. 이는, 경추의후만변형은흉추의 저후만증뿐만아니라척추측만증의회전변형이복합적으로연관되었다것을의미한다.
