Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Pereutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphoplasty as the minimal y invasive treatment techniques have been widely used in the treatment of vertebral osteoporotic compression fracture, but there are controversies, and each method has its advantages and disadvantages.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical efficacy between percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphoplasty in the treatment of vertebral osteoporotic compression fracture.
METHODS:100 patients with vertebral osteoporotic compression fracture were col ected, among them, 40 patients received percutaneous vertebroplasty, and 60 patients received percutaneous kyphoplasty. The visual analog scale score was used to assess the pain degree of the patients before treatment;the visual analog scale score was also used at 1 week after treatment. The X-ray film was taken to measure the ratio between anterior and rear edges of vertebrae.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The visual analog scale scores in the two groups were significantly decreased after treatment, and there was significant difference when compared with that before treatment (P<0.05);there was significant difference in the restore of vertebral height in two groups when compared with that before treatment, but there was no significant difference in the orthopedic effect between two groups (P<0.05). The incidence of complications of bone cement leakage after treatment was 35%in the pereutaneous vertebroplasty group and 12.5%in the percutaneous kyphoplasty group, and there was significant difference in the incidence of complications between two groups (P<0.05). Pereutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphoplasty can significantly relieve the pain of the patients with vertebral osteoporotic compression fracture, but there is no significant difference in the orthopedic effect between pereutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphoplasty.
