Abstract Objective Bone cement leakage causes severe complication following percutaneous vertebroplasty. This study probed the diffusion and leakage status of bone cement injected within diverged time duration, so as to find the optimal injection time for bone cement. Methods A total of 70 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures with a symptom of low back pain, who underwent treatment at hospital were enrolled in this study. Patients were randomized into three groups: <180 s, 180-300, and >300 s of injection time duration from the beginning to the completion of the injection. The scenarios of vertebral bone cement leakage and diffusion were inspected using postoperative CT. Results The diffusion coefficient was higher in group A than in group B whereas it was higher in group B than in group C, but without statistical significance among the three groups. The leakage rate was without statistical significance among the three groups. The injection time of bone cement was negatively correlated with the diffusion coefficient, at the correlation coefficient of -0.253. Conclusions The diffusion coefficient of high-viscosity bone cement is likely negatively correlated with the injection time, and the leakage rate of high-viscosity bone cement probably does not reduce with the prolongation of injection time.

Abstract BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to comparison of unilateral and bilateral percutaneous vertebroplasty in the treatment of severe vertebral compression fractures. METHODS Sixty-four severe vertebral compression fractures patients were treated in our hospital were randomly divided into group A and group B(n = 32). Group A received Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) treatment by unilateral vertebral pedicle approach. Group B received PVP treatment by bilateral vertebralpedicle approach. Visual Analogue scale (VAS) score and Oswesty Disability Index (ODI) were recorded before surgery, and at 1d,1 month, and 6 months after operation. Also, the puncture path, needle position, intraoperative bone cement injection volume, bone cement dispersion, intra-operative and postoperative complications were observed. RESULTS Sixty-four vertebrae were successfully punctured.The postoperative VAS,ODI were lower than preoperative, showed statistical difference compared with the preoperative VAS, ODI, but there are no difference between Group A and Group B.The cement leakage and operation time is lower in group A than that in Group B. CONCLUSION PVP by unilateral vertebral pedicle approach in treating severe vertebral compression fractures can significantly relieve pain and promote functional recovery, which has advantages such as convenient operation and low complication rate.

Abstract ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of precise puncture combined with simplified percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF).MethodsA total of 82 patients with single-segment osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF) were treated with PVP from Dec. 2016 to Nov. 2018. Among the patients, 45 cases in group A and accepted precise puncture combined with simplified PVP, 37 cases in group B and underwent conventional PVP. The operative time, number of intraoperative fluoroscopy, vertebral height restoration, postoperative bone cement distribution and bone cement leakage were observed and compared. The pain relief and improvement of quality of life (QOL) were assessed by visual analog score (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI).ResultsThere were no difference in injected cement volume and hospital stays in group A versus group B (P > 0.05). The operative time, number of intraoperative fluoroscopy and material cost were lower in group A compared with group B (P < 0.05). After surgery, both of the VAS scores and ODI had a significant decrease (P < 0.05). The average vertebral height and Cobb angle were significantly improved (P < 0.05), there was no statistically significant difference between groups at different time points (P > 0.05). The proportion of patients with bone cement dispersion exceeding the midline of vertebra in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (82.2% vs 62.1%) (P < 0.05), whereas the bone cement leakage rate was lower than group B (8.9% vs 27.0%) (P < 0.05). Patients were followed-up for 12-23 months (mean 17.6 months) after surgery, and 3 cases (6.6%) of adjacent vertebral fractures occurred in group A and 2 cases (5.4%) occurred in group B (P > 0.05).ConclusionPrecise puncture can improve the accuracy of puncture needle through pedicle to vertebral body. It conducive to obtain a better diffusion of bone cement across the midline with lower bone cement leakage rate. Simplified PVP can reduce the surgery procedures, shorten the operatige time, reduces the X-ray frequency, but also saves material cost.
