Biomechanical study of partial lateral corpectomy with or without an association with pediculectomy and hemilaminectomy in canine specimens

ABSTRACT The present objective was to increase the number of biomechanical cycles performed using non-chondrodystrophic dog specimens, based on the study by Araújo (2017), comparing partial lateral corpectomy (PLC) alone, corpectomy and pediculectomy, and PLC associated with pediculectomy and hemilaminectomy to determine if there are significant differences between them regarding deformation versus applied force. Groups were divided as: control (G1), corpectomy (G2), corpectomy + pediculectomy (G3), and corpectomy + pediculectomy + hemilaminectomy (G4). The level of displacement versus force was observed during axial compression, flexion, extension, right and left lateral bending, and right and left axial rotation. Significant differences were observed between groups for flexion, extension, right and left axial rotation, and left lateral bending, whereas there was no difference for axial compression and right lateral bending. PLC and PLC with pediculectomy had significant differences in flexion and in extension, similar to PLC associated with pediculectomy and with hemilaminectomy in right and left axial rotation, flexion, extension, and right lateral bending.
