RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures have a high rate of recurrent fractures in adjacent vertebrae after percutaneous vertebroplasty,but the cause of their occurrence is still controversial. OBJECTIVE:To explore the influencing factors of adjacent vertebral re-fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty in patients with single-segment osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed in 210 patients admitted to the Fifth Hospital of Wuhan City,Second Affiliated Hospital of Jianghan University from June 2016 to June 2020,who had been diagnosed with new single-segment osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures by X-ray and MRI examinations,and received percutaneous vertebroplasty.The patients were followed up for more than 18 months.The general preoperative data and postoperative indicators were collected.The general preoperative data included age,sex,body mass index,fracture segment location,fracture days,fracture cause,whether accompanied by diabetes mellitus,whether accompanied by renal and thyroid dysfunction,and visual analogue scale score on admission.The postoperative indicators included recovery rate of anterior edge of the vertebral body after operation,degree of dispersion of bone cement,leakage of bone cement,use of bone material,single or bilateral injection of bone cement,recovery rate of the injured vertebral mid-column after operation,local Cobb angle of the injured vertebra after operation.According to their real conditions,the patients were divided into a group without adjacent vertebral re-fractures(n=190)and a group with adjacent vertebral re-fractures(n=20).The presence or absence of postoperative re-fracture of the adjacent vertebrae of the injured spine was used as the dependent variable and the categorical variables such as preoperative general data and postoperative indicators were used as independent variables for statistical analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After percutaneous vertebroplasty,patients with adjacent vertebral re-fractures showed significant differences in age,body mass index,postoperative vertebral body anterior edge recovery rate,degree of cement dispersion,and cement leakage from those without adjacent vertebral re-fractures(P<0.05).However,sex,time of fracture,cause of fracture,presence of diabetes or kidney disease or thyroid disease,location of the initial vertebral fracture segment,mode of cement injection,local Cobb angle of the injured vertebra,recovery rate of the injured vertebral mid-column,and use of bone tissue were not statistically significant in relation to re-fracture of the adjacent vertebra after percutaneous vertebroplasty(P>0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age,vertebral body anterior edge recovery rate and cement leakage were independent risk factors for re-fractures of the adjacent vertebra after percutaneous vertebroplasty.To conclude,age,vertebral body anterior edge recovery rate and leakage of bone cement are the influencing factors of adjacent vertebral re-fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty.However,factors such as the degree of bone cement dispersion and the local Cobb angle of the injured vertebra were not correlated with adjacent vertebral re-fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Studies have exhibited that symmetrical distribution and effective dose of bone cement can reduce postoperative vertebral refractures and help improve outcomes,but obtaining better distribution and dose of bone cement during percutaneous vertebroplasty remains an issue for surgeons. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the risk factors of percutaneous vertebroplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture,and to analyze the correlation between these factors and recurrent fractures of the operative vertebral body and adjacent vertebral bodies after percutaneous vertebroplasty. METHODS:111 patients who underwent unilateral approach percutaneous vertebroplasty in Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2018 to December 2021 were screened and divided into fracture group(n=17)and non-fracture group(n=94)according to whether refracture was observed during follow-up.The following variables were reviewed in both groups:Gender,age,body mass index,operation time,menopause age,bone cement distribution index,bone density T value,bone cement dose,location of bone cement distribution,percutaneous vertebroplasty stage,past history,adverse reactions and disc cement leakage of patients.These variables were analyzed by univariate analysis.The statistically significant factors were replaced by a binary Logistic regression model to analyze the correlation with vertebral refracture after percutaneous vertebroplasty. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Univariate analysis demonstrated that after percutaneous vertebroplasty,vertebral refracture was associated with disc cement leakage(P=0.000),cement dose(P=0.049),and cement distribution location(P=0.017).(2)Binary Logistic regression revealed that bone cement leakage(P=0.000),cement dose(P=0.031),and location of cement distribution(P=0.015)were risk factors for recurrent fracture of the operative vertebral body and adjacent vertebral body after percutaneous vertebroplasty.Compared with cement distribution types I,II,and III,the risk of recurrent fracture in the operative and adjacent vertebrae was higher in cement distribution types IV and V(OR=36.340,P=0.016;OR=27.755,P=0.017).(3)It is concluded that recurrent fractures of the surgically operated vertebral body and adjacent vertebral bodies are caused by the interaction of multiple risk factors.Bone cement distribution and bone cement leakage were independent risk factors.Recurrent fractures of the operative vertebra and adjacent vertebrae are more likely when the cement is distributed in type IV and type V.Surgeons should fully assess these risk factors before surgery and develop targeted prevention and treatment strategies to help reduce the risk of future refractures.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Percutaneous vertebroplasty has become the main treatment method for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures due to its advantages of convenient operation and low trauma.However,the optimal bone cement-vertebral volume ratio has not been determined. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of bone cement-vertebral volume ratio on percutaneous vertebroplasty for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. METHODS:The clinical data of 100 patients with single-stage osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures admitted to Xinjiang Bazhou People's Hospital from July 2019 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients received percutaneous vertebroplasty.According to the bone cement-vertebral volume ratio,they were divided into the low volume group(15%≤ratio≤20%)and the high volume group(20%<ratio≤25%)with 50 cases in each group.The visual analog scale score,Oswestry disability index,vertebral anterior margin height,Cobb angle of injured vertebra,bone cement distribution pattern,and bone cement leakage rate were analyzed before surgery,3 days and 1 year after surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the preoperative results,the visual analog scale scores,vertebral anterior margin height,Cobb angle of injured vertebra at 3 days and 1 year after surgery,and Oswestry disability index at 1 year after surgery were significantly improved in 100 patients(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in visual analog scale scores at 3 days and 1 year after surgery and Oswestry disability index at 1 year after surgery between the low volume group and the high volume group(P>0.05).The vertebral anterior margin height in the low volume group was lower than that in the high volume group at 3 days and 1 year after surgery(P<0.05).The Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae in the low volume group was higher than that in the high volume group at 3 days and 1 year after surgery(P<0.05).(2)There were 10 H-type and 40 O-type bone cement distributions in the low volume group.There were 36 H-type and 14 O-type bone cement distributions in the high volume group,and there was no significant difference in bone cement distributions between the two groups(P<0.05).The bone cement leakage rate in the high volume group and low volume group was 10%and 6%,respectively.(3)It is indicated that both low and high bone cement-vertebral volume ratios can improve postoperative pain and functional dysfunction,but high bone cement-vertebral volume ratio can improve the morphological recovery of injured vertebral,which may be related to the fact that the distribution of bone cement in this group is more H-type.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that good bone cement distribution during percutaneous vertebroplasty reduces postoperative secondary vertebral fractures and helps improve prognosis.However,how to get a good distribution of bone cement is a problem for spine surgeons. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the correlation of bone cement distribution with surgical and adjacent vertebral refractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty. METHODS:A total of 193 patients with thoracolumbar compression fracture(≤2 fractured vertebrae)admitted to Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Orthopedic Hospital from January 2018 to December 2022 were selected.They underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty via unilateral approach and were followed up after surgery.They were divided into fracture group(n=30)and non-fracture group(n=163)based on whether the surgical and adjacent vertebral fractures were observed during the follow-up period(more than 6 months).The basic data of the two groups were analyzed by univariate analysis.Statistically significant factors were replaced with binary logistic regression model to explore the correlation with recompression fracture of surgical and adjacent vertebrae after percutaneous vertebroplasty. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Univariate analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups in gender,body mass index,menopause age of female patients,bone cement dose,previous history,smoking history,drinking history,operation segment,operation time,and hospital stay(P>0.05).There were significant differences in age,bone mineral density T value,bone cement leakage,and bone cement distribution between the two groups(P<0.05).(2)Binary logistic regression analysis showed that age(95%CI:1.016-1.167,P=0.016),bone cement leakage(95%CI:0.080-0.582,P=0.002),bone mineral density T value(95%CI:1.214-22.602,P=0.026),and bone cement distribution(P=0.007)were risk factors for recurrent fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty and adjacent vertebroplasty.Patients with type I bone cement distribution(which did not touch the upper and lower endplates of the vertebral body)had a higher risk of recurrent fractures of surgical and adjacent vertebrae after percutaneous vertebroplasty.(3)The results of this study show that refracture of surgical and adjacent vertebrae is caused by the interaction of various risk factors.Age,bone cement leakage,T value of bone mineral density and bone cement distribution are independent risk factors for surgical and adjacent vertebral refracture.Refracture of surgical and adjacent vertebrae can easily occur when bone cement is distributed type I.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:With the innovation of examination technique,the number of patients with spinal metastases in different stages is increasing year by year.Percutaneous vertebroplasty is an important treatment for spinal metastases;however,there is no report on the biomechanical effect in different stages and different activities after operation. OBJECTIVE:To simulate thoracic T10 bone stress and displacement of the different locations of the tumor metastasis based on the three-dimensional finite element model. METHODS:According to thoracic three-dimensional CT images of a 30-year-old healthy male,Mimics software was used to construct a three-dimensional geometric model of thoracic vertebrae(T9-T11),including ribs,ligaments and intervertebral discs.Three-dimensional models of T9-T11 vertebral bodies and different parts of the posterior thoracic vertebrae invaded by thoracic metastatic tumors were simulated,including the control group with intact vertebral structure,unilateral metastasis involving the vertebral body area(experimental group 1),unilateral metastasis involving the vertebral body and pedicle area(experimental group 2),unilateral metastasis involving the vertebral body,pedicle and transverse process area(experimental group 3),and bilateral metastasis involving the vertebral body,pedicle and transverse process area(experimental group 4).Abaqus software was used to create a three-dimensional finite element model.The von Mises stress distribution and the displacement of the model were analyzed under the loading condition,buckling condition,extension condition,and rotation condition. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In the study of the maximum total displacement of loading points in different experimental groups under loading,flexion,extension,and rotation conditions,with the increase of metastatic tumor invasion site and invasion surface,the total displacement of loading points increased,and the overall stiffness decreased,especially the total displacement of loading points in experimental group 4 was the largest.(2)Under flexion condition,the maximum Von Mises stress value increased significantly after vertebral body and pedicle destruction,while the maximum Von Mises stress value was almost unchanged when the thoracocostal joint destruction was added.(3)On the basis of finite element analysis and simulation of bone tumor model,the elements in the bone cement region were set as a single set,and the bone cement region was set as the corresponding material properties to simulate bone cement filling.The results showed that the maximum total displacement under loading,flexion,extension,and rotation conditions was less than that of each experimental group.(4)The maximum stress values of the simulated percutaneous vertebroplasty patients in the loading,flexion,extension and rotation conditions were significantly lower than those of the femoral model.(5)It is concluded that the three-dimensional finite element model based on thoracic T9-T11 conducive to the biomechanics characteristics of thoracic vertebrae tumor metastasis,and on the basis of the thoracic vertebrae tumor metastasis model can accurately simulate load point after percutaneous vertebral body under different conditions of total displacement and the maximum Von Mises stress situation.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Percutaneous vertebroplasty is the most widely used method for the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures,and most studies have concluded that percutaneous vertebroplasty increases the probability of adjacent vertebral secondary compression fractures in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.However,controversy remains regarding the risk factors associated with adjacent vertebral re-fracture caused after percutaneous vertebroplasty. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the influencing factors of adjacent vertebral compression fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures,in order to provide a certain reference for reducing the risk of its occurrence as well as formulating the corresponding treatment plan. METHODS:Using"osteoporosis,fracture,percutaneous vertebroplasty,adjacent vertebral compression fractures,risk factors"as the Chinese search terms,"osteoporosis,osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures,percutaneous vertebroplasty,adjacent vertebral compression fractures,risk factors"as English search terms,computerized searches were conducted on CNKI,Wanfang Medical Network,VIP,PubMed,Springer,ScienceDirect,and Elsevier databases.The search timeframe focuses on January 2018 through September 2023,with the inclusion of a few classic forward literature.The literature was screened by reading the titles and abstracts,and 83 papers were finally included in the review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures are one of the most common complications of osteoporosis,placing elderly patients at a significant risk of disability and death.Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a practical and effective treatment for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.(2)With the popularity of percutaneous vertebroplasty,its secondary vertebral compression fractures have gradually increased,with adjacent vertebral compression fractures being the most common.(3)Previous studies have only discussed the effects of factors such as bone mineral density,multiple vertebral fractures,body mass index,age,sex,amount of bone cement,cement leakage,and anti-osteoporosis treatment on secondary compression fractures of adjacent vertebrae after percutaneous vertebroplasty,and summarized the number of vertebral fractures,timing of the operation,surgical approach,cement material,diffuse distribution of bone cement,recovery height of the injured vertebrae,and wearing of a support after surgery,which is not yet comprehensive.The analysis of the specific mechanisms of risk factor-induced adjacent vertebral fractures is relatively rare.(4)The results of the article showed that low bone mineral density,advanced age,perimenopausal women,multiple vertebral fractures,excessive recovery of the height of the injured vertebrae,cement leakage,comorbid underlying diseases,and poor lifestyle habits were the risk factors for secondary adjacent vertebral compression fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty,and that maintaining a normal body mass index,early surgery,bilateral percutaneous vertebroplasty,use of a new type of cement material,an appropriate volume of bone cement injection and uniform cement dispersion,regular anti-osteoporosis treatment,and postoperative brace wearing are protective factors for secondary adjacent vertebral compression fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphoplasty in the treatment of Kummell'disease.Methods Databases of Cochrane Library,PubMed,Medline,Embase,Web of Science,CNKI,VIP,Wanfang Data and CBM were used to search clinical studies on percutaneous kyphoplasty virus percutaneous vertebroplasty in the treatment of Kummell's disease from database inception until June 1st,2022.Literature screening was performed according to the speci-fied inclusion and exclusion criteria.In strict compliance with Cochrane's systematic evaluation principle,authors reasonably screened,e-valuated and analyzed the quality of the retrieved papers and then the evaluating indicator of postoperative ODI,JOA,VAS,operation time and intraoperative complications in each included study was evaluated in Review Manager 5.4software.Results Nine papers were included,involving 243 patients in the percutaneous vertebroplasty group and 222 patients in the percutaneous kyphoplasty group.Percu-taneous kyphoplasty had advantages in postoperative ODI score,cement leakage,and postoperative Cobb's angle,which was statistically significant(P＜0.05),but the operation time was longer and the postoperative VAS score improved poorly.There was no significant difference in intraoperative bleeding and height of the postoperative vertebral margin(P＞0.05).Conclusion In the surgical treatment of Kummell's disease,percutaneous vertebral kyphoplasty can more effectively improve the postoperative ODI score,and reduce the post-operative Cobb's angle and the risk of cement leakage compared to the traditional percutaneous vertebroplasty.It has more advantages in improving the clinical efficacy and reducing the postoperative risk.However,the conclusions of this study require more high-quality,multi-angle and large-sample studies in the future.
RESUMEN
Objectives: Research, knowledge, and technological advances have promoted minimally invasive image-guided diagnostic and therapeutic intervention. Such interventions are increasingly performed for musculoskeletal diseases by radiologists within outpatient settings. The objective of this study was to ascertain levels of safe practice among musculoskeletal radiologists in the United Kingdom and the Indian public health-care system, as defined by access to spinal surgeons and anesthetists during radiological spinal procedures. Material and Methods: An online cross-sectional survey of eight questions (multiple choice and free text) was circulated among musculoskeletal radiologists in the UK and India, to evaluate: (i) Image-guided practice among musculoskeletal radiologists. (ii) Types of interventions undertaken. (iii) Practice setting. (iv) Availability of supportive, backup access to spinal surgery services. Results: A total of 53 replies were received of which 43 (81.1%) were from musculoskeletal radiologists who perform spinal interventional procedures. Spinal biopsies and injections were the most common procedures performed by the 43 eligible radiologists (79.1% and 74.4%, respectively), with vertebroplasty and sacroplasty performed by only 16.3% and 11.6%, respectively. Less than half (46.5%) of musculoskeletal radiologists performing interventional procedures did so within a hospital setting with both a spinal surgeon and an anesthetist on site, 20.9% had an anesthetist on site but no spinal surgeon and 16.3% had neither on-site. Conclusion: Minimally invasive image-guided diagnostic and therapeutic intervention is a niche sub-specialty practiced by a few musculoskeletal radiologists. Enhanced resource allocation, skills training, and multidisciplinary service provision will ultimately minimize existing deficiencies, improving patient-related clinical outcomes, and quality of care.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the clinical efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty(PVP) combined with nerve block in the treatment of lumbar osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures under the guidance of traditional chinese medicine "theory of equal emphasis on muscle and bone".@*METHODS@#Total of 115 patients with lumbar osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures were treated by percutaneous vertebroplasty from January 2015 to March 2022, including 51 males and 64 females, aged 25 to 86 (60.5±15.9) years. Among them, 48 cases were treated with PVP operation combined with erector spinae block and joint block of the injured vertebral articular eminence (intervention group), and 67 cases were treated with conventional PVP operation (control group). The visual analogue scale(VAS) and Oswestry disability index(ODI) before operation, 3 days, 1 month and 6 months after operation between two groups were evaluated. The operation time, number of punctures and intraoperative bleeding between two groups were compared.@*RESULTS@#The VAS and ODI scores of both groups improved significantly after operation compared with those before operation(P<0.05). Moreover, the VAS and ODI scores of 3 days and 1 month after operation of the intervention group improved more significantly than that of the control group(P<0.05). The difference of VAS and ODI scores before operation and 6 months after operation between two groups had no statistical significances(P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the number of punctures and intraoperative bleeding between the two groups (P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Based on the theory of "equal emphasis on muscles and bones", PVP combined with nerve block can effectively relieve paravertebral soft tissue spasm and other "muscle injuries", which can significantly improve short-term postoperative low back pain and lumbar spine mobility compared to conventional PVP treatment, and accelerate postoperative recovery, resulting in satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of percutaneous vertebral-disc plasty (PVDP) in the treatment of very severe osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (vsOVCF).Methods:A total of 26 patients with vsOVCF were treated by PVDP at Department of Spine Surgery, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Nantong University from November 2019 to August 2021. They were 8 males and 18 females with an age of (77.9±5.2) years. Fracture sites: T11 in 9 cases, T12 in 13 cases, L1 in 7 cases, and L2 in 2 cases. The loss of vertebral height exceeded 2/3 of its original height. The curative effects were evaluated by comparing the visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI) and local kyphosis angle (LKA) at preoperation, 1 day postoperation and the last follow-up.Results:This cohort was followed up for 12(10, 15) months. No obvious neurological damage or other serious complications occurred. The VAS scores [(2.9±0.7) and (2.2±0.7) points] and ODIs [28.0%±4.8% and 16.9%±4.0%] at 1 day postoperation and the final follow-up were significantly lower than the preoperative values respectively [(6.7±0.8) points and 66.7%±6.0%], and the values at the last follow-up were significantly lower than those at 1 day postoperation ( P<0.05). The LKAs at 1 day postoperation and the last follow-up (18.1°±4.1° and 19.5°±4.4°) were significantly smaller than that before operation (32.0°±5.2°) ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between 1 day postoperation and the last follow-up in LKA ( P>0.05). Conclusion:PVDP is an effective surgical treatment of vsOVCF, because it can relieve pain and improve local kyphosis with satisfactory clinical outcomes.
RESUMEN
Objective To study the curative effects of traditional Chinese medicine paste combined with Baduanjin in treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP). Methods 120 OVCF patients treated with PVP in our hospital from January 2016 to September 2017 were divided into the observation group (60 cases) and the control group (60 cases) according to the random number table method. The control group was given calcium carbonate D3 chewable tablets orally with routine guidance. In addition to the same treatment as the control group, the observation group received the traditional Chinese medicine paste orally with Baduanjin exercise. Both groups were treated for 6 months and followed-up for 3 years. The curative effects in the two groups after 6 months treatment and the low back pain after 1, 3 and 6 months of treatment were recorded. The changes of bone mineral density (BMD), kyphosis angle (Cobb angle), anterior wall height of vertebral body (AVBH) and level of bone metabolism indexes in the two groups were compared before and after treatment for 6 months. The follow-up times and the incidences of push-back fracture after PVP during follow-up were recorded. Results After 6 months of treatment, the clinical cure rate of the observation group was 73.33%, which was higher than 53.33% of the control group(P<0.05). Compared with pretreatment, the scores of visual analogue scale (VAS) in the two groups gradually decreased after 3 and 6 months of treatment, and the observation group had a lower scores than the control group (P<0.05). After 6 months treatment, BMD and AVBH of lumbar vertebrae and femoral neck in both groups increased, and the observation group was higher than that in the control group. The Cobb angle and serum levels of Type I procollagen degradation products (β-Cross I), the n-terminal middle osteocalcin (N-MID Ost) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) decreased in both groups, and the observation group was lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in fracture incidence after PVP in the year 1, year 1 to 3 follow up between the two groups (P>0.05). During the 3 years follow-up, the incidence of push-body fracture after PVP in the observation group was 3.33%, which was lower than that in the control group 20.00%( P<0.05). Conclusion Traditional Chinese medicine paste combined with Baduanjin reduced the serum levels of β-Cross I, N-MID Ost and PTH, regulated bone metabolism, improved BMD and AVBH of lumbar vertebrae and femoral neck, reduced Cobb angle, promoted the recovery of lumbar function, alleviated patients' back pain, lowered the incidence of push-body fracture after PVP. The curative effects were remarkable.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty(PVP) in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures(OVCF) patients with chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder(CKD-MBD), and analyzed the efficacy of the operation in relieving pain and improving quality of life.Methods:This retrospective study selected 71 patients who underwent PVP treatment for OVCF at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from December 2013 to December 2018. Among them, there were 24 males and 47 females, with an age range of 66-92 years and an average age of (73.7±8.4) years. Based on whether the patients had CKD-MBD, the patients were divided into two groups: 31 patients with CKD-MBD comprised the experimental group, and 40 patients without CKD-MBD comprised the control group. General patient information and perioperative data were collected, including surgical time, bone cement fill volume, preoperative, postoperative, and different follow-up timepoint visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, analgesic medication usage scores, oswestry disability index (ODI) scores. Measure and record patient vertebral anterior, middle, and posterior heights and Cobb′s angle, as well as patient blood calcium, blood phosphorus, bone metabolic markers, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, parathyroid hormone, total hip bone density, femoral neck bone density, and bone fracture indicators. Measurement data were represented as mean±standard deviation( ± s), the comparison between groups was conducted using the t-test; and repeated measure ANOVA was used for comparison before and after operation; the comparison of count data between groups was conducted by Chi-square test. Results:The surgical duration for the patients in this group was 20-50 min, average (29.8±7.2) min, and the volume of bone cement used was 2.0-5.0 mL, average (3.0±1.0) mL. In the experimental group, VAS scores of postoperative pain, analgesic medication usage scores, and ODI showed statistically significant differences compared to preoperative values ( P<0.001). At the last follow-up, there were no statistically significant differences in analgesic medication usage scores and ODI compared to postoperative values, but VAS scores had improved to a certain extent compared to postoperative values, with statistical significance ( P<0.001). In the experimental group, vertebral anterior height increased from (2.26±0.20) cm preoperatively to (2.57±0.28) cm postoperatively, and vertebral middle height increased from (1.96±0.18) cm preoperatively to (2.21±0.16) cm postoperatively, both with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001). Three patients (9.7%) experienced recurrent fractures, including 1 case of surgical vertebral recurrent fracture (3.2%). The experimental group showed a general increasing trend in blood calcium levels, with the last follow-up blood calcium being (2.31±0.09) mmol/L, which was significantly higher than preoperative ( P=0.002). There was no statistically significant difference in the changes in blood phosphorus ( P>0.05), and parathyroid hormone levels showed a slight decrease in the last follow-up when compared to preoperative, but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Both total hip bone mineral density(BMD) and femoral neck BMD at the last follow-up showed significant increases compared to preoperative values. The experimental group had higher levels of blood phosphorus and parathyroid hormone than the control group at both preoperative and last follow-up assessments, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Conclusion:PVP can effectively alleviate pain and enhance the quality of life for patients with OVCF accompanied by CKD-MBD.
RESUMEN
Objective To compare the difference between four-axis positioning 3D printing guide assisted puncture and manual puncture percutaneous vertebroplasty,to clarify the clinical efficacy of 3D printing guide assisted percutaneous vertebroplasty,and to explore its clinical application value.Methods A total of 70 patients who underwent single-segment vertebroplasty for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures in our hospital were randomly divided into a manual group(control group)and a guide plate group(observation group).Thirty-five patients in the control group underwent PVP under the traditional manual puncture,and 35 patients in the observa-tion group underwent PVP under the four-axis positioning 3D printing guide assisted puncture.The general data,perioperative data,imaging data,preoperative and postoperative functional scores of the two groups were collected and compared.Results In terms of intraoperative fluoroscopy times,operation time,and postoperative adverse reactions,the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).However,there was no significant difference between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss,bone cement leakage,and whether bone cement perfusion included fracture sites.In terms of clinical efficacy,the ratio of anterior vertebral height,postoperative VAS score and postoperative JOA score of the two groups were significantly better than those before operation,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).At the same time point before and after operation,there was no significant difference in the height ratio of the anterior edge of the injured vertebra,VAS score and JOA score between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The clinical efficacy of four-axis positioning 3D printing guide plate-assisted puncture is the same as that of experienced clinicians with free hand puncture for PVP,which can quickly relieve pain and improve dysfunction.However,guide plate assistance can shorten the operation time,reduce the number of fluoroscopy and postoperative adverse reactions,and make vertebroplasty faster and safer.

Objective To evaluate the effect and safety of ketorolac on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing percutaneous vertebroplasty.Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty in Xi'an Labor Union Hospital from January 2020 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,and the patients were divided into ketorolac group and control group according to whether they were given ketorolac after surgery.The visual analogue pain score(VAS)before,6 h,24 h and 48 h after surgery,postoperative fentanyl usage(dosage,time of first compression analgesic pump,number of compressions),Oswestry disability index(ODI)before,3 days,1 month and 6 months after surgery,bone mineral density and bone metabolism indexes before,3 month and 6 month after surgery,the incidence of adverse reactions within 72 hours after surgery and satisfaction with pain intervention were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 90 patients were included in the study,including 48 patients in the ketorolac group and 42 patients in the control group.At 6 h,24 h and 48 h after surgery,the VAS score of the ketorolac group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).The amount of fentanyl and the number of compressions in the ketorolac group were significantly lower than those in the control group,and the time of the first compression analgesic pump was significantly longer than that in the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in bone mineral density,serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase(BALP)and type I collagen C-terminal peptide(CTX-I)levels between the two groups before surgery(P>0.05).At 3 months and 6 months after surgery,the bone mineral density,serum BALP and CTX-I levels of the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before surgery(P<0.05).At 3 days,1 month and 6 months after surgery(P<0.05),the ODI of patients in both groups was significantly improved compared with that before surgery.There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions at 72 hours after surgery between patients in the ketorolac group and the control group(P>0.05).In addition,the satisfaction with pain relief in the ketorolac group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Ketorlac can effectively improve the postoperative pain of patients with PVP without affecting the postoperative recovery of patients,with a low incidence of adverse reactions and a high safety profile,which can effectively improve patients'satisfaction with pain relief.
RESUMEN
Objective:To compare postural reduction combined with percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs).Methods:From January 2019 to January 2020,68 patients with OVCFs who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the Second Hospital of Tangshan Hebei Province were included in the observation study. A prospective randomized controlled study was used. The matched groups were divided into PVP combined group (adjust the overextension of the operating table by 20°-30°, if the posture reduction fails, pry the puncture needle on both sides in reverse according to the compression degree of the end plate before operation, and inject bone cement) and PKP group (do not adjust the operating table before operation, insert a balloon and expand on both sides after operation, and inject bone cement), with 34 cases in each group. The Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae was measured by taking the anterior and lateral X-ray film of the patient's lumbar spine before operation. The degree of pain and low back function were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswetry disability index (ODI). The operation time and fluoroscopy times were recorded during the operation. On the second day after operation, the anterior and lateral X-ray of lumbar spine were taken to measure the Cobb angle of injured vertebrae. All patients were underwent computed tomography (CT) check the bone cement for leakage, record the VAS score, and record the ODI 3 months after operation to evaluate the patient's function. Follow up at the end of 12 months after operation to count the treatment cost and re-fracture of the patient. The data analysis and measurement data were compared by independent sample t-test between the two groups, paired sample t-test was used for intra-group comparison before and after operation. χ 2 test was used for counting data comparison between two groups. Results:All patients were followed up for 12 months. The operation time ((42.7±5.9) min), fluoroscopy times ((20.0±3.6) times) and treatment cost ((19 153±601) yuan) in the PVP combined group were better than those in the PKP Group ((67.4±7.3) min, (30.1±5.9) times, (27 496±669) yuan), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 15.39, 8.46, 54.12; all P<0.001). Cobb angle: Postoperative Cobb angle of injured vertebrae in the two groups (PVP combined group (10.7±4.5)°) and (PKP group (13.4±3.8)°) decreased compared with preoperative (PVP combined group (17.0±5.1)°) and (PKP group (16.7±5.1)°) ( t values were 10.61, 5.61; all P=0.001), and PVP combined group recovered better than PKP group, with statistically significant difference ( t=2.70, P=0.009). VAS score: Postoperative (PVP combined group (3.9±1.5) points) and (PKP group (4.1±1.6) points) was lower than preoperative the scores of (PVP combined group (6.9±1.1) points) and (PKP group (7.1±0.9) points), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 8.63, 8.88; all P=0.001). There was no significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups ( t=0.48, P=0.630). ODI scores: The scores of (PVP combined group (0.315±0.068)) and (PKP group (0.319±0.077)) after operation were lower than preoperative (PVP combined group (0.574±0.066), (PKP group (0.553±0.075)), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 18.54, 14.16, all P=0.001). There was no significant difference in ODI between the two groups ( t=0.25, P=0.803). There was no statistical significance in the two groups of postoperative bone cement leakage (χ 2=0.22, P=0.642). In PVP combined group, 1 case was re-fractured due to trauma, and there was no re-fracture in PKP group. Conclusion:Postural reduction combined with percutaneous needle prying reduction of PVP and PKP can alleviate the pain, improve the postoperative function and restore kyphosis in patients with OVCFs. Postural reduction combined with needle prying reduction of PVP has more advantages in operation time, radiation injury to doctors and patients, treatment cost, and the effect of correcting deformity is more significant.
RESUMEN
La osteoporosis es una enfermedad sistémica que deteriora la calidad del hueso y su arquitectura. Como consecuencia, predispone a fracturas por fragilidad, entre las cuales las fracturas vertebrales son frecuentes. Estas se asocian a una gran morbimortalidad. La vertebroplastia ha surgido en 1984 como alter-nativa terapéutica para tratar algunos tumores vertebrales y fracturas vertebrales osteoporóticas dolorosas. Este procedimiento consiste en la inyección de cemento guiado por imágenes, para estabilizar la vértebra fracturada y disminuir el dolor. La vertebroplastia puede ser realizada con anestesia local, sedación o anestesia general. La fuga de cemento fuera de la vértebra es una complicación común; sin embargo esto no suele tener traducción clínica y solamente se trata de un hallazgo imagenológico. En este artículo revisaremos las indicaciones, contraindicaciones, la eficacia, controversias y las complicaciones de la vertebroplastia percutánea. (AU)
Osteoporosis is a systemic disease characterized by bone quality deterioration. As a consequence of this deterioration, osteoporosis results in high fracture risk due to bone fragility. Fractures to the spine are common in this scenario, and relate to an increased morbi-mortality. Vertebroplasty emerged in 1984 as an alternative to treat painful vertebral tumors and osteoporotic vertebral fractures. This procedure relies on image guided cement injection to achieve pain relief and strengthen the vertebral body. Vertebroplasty can be performed under local anesthesia, mild sedation, or general anesthesia. Among its complications, cement leakage is common but it is rarely associated with any symptoms and it is usually an imaging finding. In this article, we will review indications and contraindications, effectiveness, controversies and complications related to percutaneous vertebroplasty. (AU)

【Objective】 To compare the efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty （PVP） and facet blocking （FB） in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. 【Methods】 From January 2015 to June 2019， 162 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture were treated with PVP and FB. Among them， PVP group （86 cases） received PVP treatment and FB group （76 cases） received FB treatment. We compared the perioperative related indexes， the height of the anterior edge of the injured vertebrae， the sagittal kyphosis Cobb angle， visual analogue score， dysfunction index and lumbar dysfunction score of preoperative and postoperative follow-up （1 day， 1 week， 1 month， 3 months， 6 months， and 12 months） in both groups. 【Results】 There was significant difference in operation time between PVP group ［（34.25±6.04）min）］ and FB group ［（21.47±4.58）min］ （P0.05）， but there was significant difference in the height of anterior margin of injured vertebrae between the two groups at 3 days， 6 months and 12 months after operation （P0.05）， but after operation（P0.05）. 【Conclusion】 Both PVP group and FB group have effectively relieved pain. The results of this study suggest that FB can become an alternative treatment for PVP in some patients， such as the poor， elderly and pain-tolerant ones.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of unilateral puncture techniques in high-viscosity cement percutanueous vertebroplasty (PVP) in treatment of type I chronic symptomatic osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (CSOVCF).Methods:A retrospective case control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 119 patients with type I CSOVCF admitted to Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University School of Medicine from December 2013 to December 2016. There were 42 males and 77 females, aged 58-95 years [(79.2±15.6)years]. All patients had bone mineral density of -4.5--2.5 SD [(-3.9±0.2)SD] (T score). The fractured segments included L 1-L 2 in 56 patients and L 3-L 5 in 63. All patients were treated by high-viscosity cement PVP with the unilateral puncture of transverse process and superior articular process in unilateral group ( n=60) and by the bilateral puncture approach with the Magerl method in bilaleral group ( n=59). The operation time, cement injection volume, and intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency were recorded. The visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI), anterior height ratio of injured vertebrae and Cobb angle were measured before operation, at postoperative 1 day and at the last follow-up. The adjacent vertebral fracture, cement leakage and other complications were recorded. Results:All patients were followed up for 12-48 months [(24.1±5.6)months]. The operation time in unilateral group [(21.5±6.5)minutes] was significantly shorter than that in bilateral group [(37.8±7.4)minutes] ( P<0.05). The cement injection volume in unilateral group [(4.2±0.7)ml] was less than that in bilateral group [(6.5±1.1)ml]( P<0.05). The intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency in unilateral group [(14.2±3.0)times] was less than that in bilateral group [(31.4±6.4)times] ( P<0.05). Both groups showed significant improvements in VAS, ODI, anterior height ratio of injured vertebrae and Cobb angle at postoperative 1 day and at the last follow-up compared with these before operation ( P<0.05), but there were no significant differences after operation between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of adjacent vertebral fracture was 5%(3/60) in unilateral group and 8% (5/59) in bilaleral group ( P>0.05). Four patients (7%) had cement leakage in unilateral group and 11 patients (19%) in bilateral group ( P<0.05). No complications of wound infection, nerve injury or pulmonary embolism occurred. Conclusion:Compared with Magerl bilateral puncture approach, high-viscosity cement PVP with unilateral puncture of transverse process and superior articular process in treatment of type I CSOVCF has advantages of shorter operation time, less trauma, less radiation exposure and lower cement leakage rate.
