Treating one case of low toxicity infection after cervical surgery in the integrative medicine
The incidence of low toxicity infection after cervical spine surgery is low,but due to the special site of the disease and hidden symptoms at the beginning of the disease,it is easy to cause neurospinal cord injury,leading to serious complications,which affects the postoperative recovery of patients,and threatens the life safety of patients.Due to the lack of specificity in physical signs and laboratoryexamination,it is easy to be misdiagnosed and mistreated.Low toxicity infection after cervical spine surgery belongs to low toxicity infection of bone,which is essentially a chronic inflammation of bone and is often classified as subacute osteomyelitis in clinical practice.The pathogenesis of low toxicity infection after cervical spine surgery is closely related to surgical trauma,and subperiosteal hemorrhage after trauma is an important factor in the onset of the disease.The main routes of infection are iatrogenic and bloodborne,with Staphylococcus aureus being the most common pathogen.The clinical manifestations are mainly diverse infectious symptoms.Traditional Chinese medicine categorizes it into categories such as bone gangrene,bone carbuncle,Yin(阴)gangrene,and bone erosion.It is caused by the weakness of the body or the deficiency of the body after the disease,the deficiency of healthy Qi(气),and the invasion of evil toxins.The weakness of healthy Qi is the pathogenetic basis of this disease.At present,there is no unified treatment method for low toxicity infections after cervical spine surgery.In clinical practice,symptomatic treatment is often based on the specific symptoms of patients.Traditional Chinese medicine often treats patients based on different stages of differentiation of symptoms and signs,with both internal and external treatment,as well as eliminating pathogenic factors and strengthening the body.At present,reports of low toxicity infections in bone are mostly located in the limbs,and there are no reports of low toxicity infections after cervical spine surgery.This article summarizes the pathogenesis of cervical spine infection and the treatment in the integrative medicine,and reports one case of low toxicity infection after cervical spine surgery treated in the integrative medicine.It is hoped that more patients with low toxicity infections after cervical spine surgery will be diagnosed as soon as possible,treated more efficiently,so as to avoid missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
