Abstract:
Objective To explore the application value of self-made directional arcuate bone drill during vertebroplasty by observing its operative effects for osteoporosis in vitro . Methods EDTA-Na2 was used to soak the prepared vituline osteoporotic vertebral bodies in vitro .A total of 40 osteoporotic vertebral bodies were randomly divided into Group A and B , with each group having 20 vertebral bodies for vertebroplasty .The Group A underwent a puncture by routine straight bone drill , while the Group B received a puncture by self-made directional arcuate bone drill with the arc directing toward the contralateral , which terminated when the drill reached the first 1/3 of vertebral body .Finally, statistical analysis was conducted on the distance between the bone drill bit and exterior margin of contralateral vertebral body , as well as whether bone cement reached or went over the vertebral sagittal midline . Results The osteoporotic vertebral bodies were successfully prepared in vitro by using EDTA-Na2 immersion decalcifying for 9 days. In the Group A, the drill bit was (2.50 ±0.32) cm away from contralateral exterior margin of vertebral bodies , which was significantly different from that in the Group B (0.90 ±0.26) cm (t=17.354, P=0.000).The bone cement reached or went over the vertebral sagittal midline in 11 vertebral bodies in the Group A and in 19 vertebral bodies in the Group B , with statistical difference ( Fisher’ s test,P=0.004).The intraspinal bone cement leakage occurred in 9 vertebral bodies in the Group A and 4 in the Group B, without significant difference between the two groups (Fisher’s test,P=0.176). Conclusion The self-made directional arcuate bone drill can build an osseous channel that reach or go over the vertebral sagittal midline and guide bone cement distributed to contralateral puncture , which avoids the disadvantages of bilateral vertebral pedicular puncture .The result shows that the self-made directional arcuate bone drill has more adventages in vertebroplasty than that of traditional straight bone drill but doesn ’ t have significant advantages in preventing bone cement leakage .
