Abstract Background:Current findings suggest that percutaneous vertebroplasty(PVP) is a suitable therapeutic approach for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs).The present retrospective study aimed to investigate the differences in clinical efficacy and related complications between the two bone cement distribution modes. Methods:We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of the patients with single-segment OVCFs who underwent bilateral percutaneous vertebroplasty.Patients were divided into blocky and spongy group according to the type of postoperative bone cement distribution. Clinical efficacy and related complications was compared between the two bone cement distribution modes on 24h after the operation and last follow-up.RESULTS: The mean follow-up time was 17.54 months. The VAS and ODI after operation improved significantly in both two groups. The VAS and ODI in the spongy group was significantly lower than that in the blocky group, 24h postoperatively, and at the last follow-up. There were 42 cases (12.8%) of adjacent vertebral fractures, 26 cases (19.8%) in the blocky group and 16 cases (8.1%) in the spongy group. There were 57 cases (17.3%) of bone cement leakage, 18 cases (13.7%) in blocky group and 39 cases (19.7%) in the spongy group. At 24 hour postoperatively and at the last follow-up, local kyphosis and anterior vertebral height were significantly corrected in both groups, but gradually decreased over time, and the degree of correction was significantly higher in the spongy group than in the block group. Loss of local kyphosis and loss of vertebral body height were also less severe in the spongy group at the last follow-up.Conclusions: Compared with blocky group, spongy group can better maintain the height of the vertebral body, correct local kyphosis, reduce the risk of the vertebral body recompression, long-term pain and restore functions.

Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and complications of percutaneous curved vertebroplasty in treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.Methods: Patients with single vertebral osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures were selected. The patients were divided into Percutaneous curved vertebroplasty group and Percutaneous vertebroplasty group.Distribution and leakage of bone cement and recovery of the height of the anterior edge of the injured vertebra were observed. VAS and ODI were assessed preoperatively 1 day and 1 year postoperatively. Postoperative follow-up was conducted for 1 year to observe the occurrence of adjacent vertebral fractures. The trial was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. Results: Compared with the percutaneous vertebroplasty group, distribution of bone cement was more uniform and satisfactory, the leakage rate of bone cement was lower in the percutaneous curved vertebroplasty group. Both the visual analogue scale score and Oswestry disability index of the two groups at 1 day and I year after surgery were significantly improved compared with those before surgery (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in VAS and ODI. The height of the anterior edge of the injured vertebral body of the two groups improved significantly(P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference between the two groups . There was no significant difference in the incidence of adjacent vertebral fractures between the two groups..Conclusion: The results show that PCVP has beneficial to the uniform distribution of bone cement in the fracture vertebrae and reduce the leakage of bone cement.

Objective To evaluate the influence of insufficient bone cement distribution on outcomes following percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP). Methods This retrospective matched-cohort study included patients 50–90 years of age who had undergone PVP for single level vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) from February 2015 to December 2018. Insufficient (Group A)/sufficient (Group B) distribution of bone cement in the fracture area was assessed from pre- and post-operative computed tomography (CT) images. Assessments were before, 3-days post-procedure, and at the last follow-up visit (≥12 months). Result Of the 270 eligible patients, there were 54 matched pairs. On post-operative day 3 and at the last follow-up visit, significantly greater visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores were obtained in Group B over Group A, while kyphotic angles (KAs) and vertebral height (VH) loss were significantly larger in Group A compared with Group B. Incidence of asymptomatic cement leakage and re-collapse of cemented vertebrae were also greater in Group A compared with Group B. Conclusions Insufficient cement distribution may relate to less pain relief and result in progressive vertebral collapse and kyphotic deformity post-PVP.

Abstract Purpose Insignificant pain relief (IPR) in short period after vertebroplasty is common, which often disturb doctors and affect patients Therefore, we reviewed systematically relative articles and attempted to get meaningful evidence on factors and strategies for IPR.Methods PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CNKI, WanFang, and VIP were searched for literatures treating the osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) with vertebroplasty and assessing the clinical efficacy.Results 817 references were electronically retrieved, 81 full-text papers were screened and 41 studies were included. Twenty-two trials presented factors on IPR, mainly including bone cement related, operation related and patient-related factors. Nineteen studies showed strategies on residual pain, including improving osteoporosis, reforming surgical operation and add other therapies. 16 prospective, 20 retrospective and 5 meta-analyses consisted the systematic review. The date from included studies point to different results, with less risk of bias, were needed to clarify the factors and strategies for residual pain.Conclusions Bone cement distribution and operation error are highly related to the post-vertebroplasty residual pain. Many therapeutic methods could improve pain and rehabilitate function but lacking more high-level evidence due to the insufficient trails.

Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) is a minimally invasive treatment that has been widely used for the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures and vertebral tumors. However, the maximum number of vertebral segments treated in a single PVP remains controversial. Furthermore, PVP may cause complications, including cement leakage, pulmonary embolism, bone cement toxicity, and spinal nerve-puncture injury. We report the rare case of a patient who underwent multilevel PVP for vertebral metastases, with no bone cement leakage or spinal cord injury, but who developed temporary paraparesis.

Transforaminal Approach

Abstract Background: Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) via various puncture approaches was an effective minimally invasive treatment for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs). In recent years, unilateral puncture techniques had been increasingly used with advantages of shorter operation time, lower X-ray exposure. The aim of this study was to explore the safety and efficacy of the unilateral transforaminal approach (UTFA) in PVP for the treatment of OVCFs. Methods: A retrospective study was designed to review 155 cases of single-level OVCFs from July 2018 to December 2019. We treated 77 patients with PVP via the UTFA and 78 via the bilateral transpedicular approach (BTPA). Operation time, number of intraoperative fluoroscopic X-rays, volume of bone cement injection and distribution of bone cement were recorded. We used Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score and Oswestry disability index (ODI) presurgery and at 1 day, 3 months and last follow-up after surgery to assess clinical outcomes. Results: The operation was successfully completed in both groups, with no complications of neurovascular injuries or bone cement embolism. UTFA group had significantly shorter operation time and less-frequent fluoroscopy than BTPA group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in volume or distribution of injected bone cement (P > 0.05). Postoperative VAS scores and ODI of the two groups were significantly improved over their presurgical values (P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences in VAS or ODI at each time point between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions: Both unilateral transforaminal PVP and bilateral transpedicular PVP were safe and effective treatments for OVCFs, but the former approach had the advantages of shorter operation time and less X-ray radiation exposure and therefore is worthy of greater clinical application.
