Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Recent literatures have showed that percutaneous kyphoplasty can effectively avoid nerve damage, pulmonary embolism, and insufficient vertebral height and other security risks when bone cement is infused into affected vertebrae in percutaneous vertebroplasty. OBJECTIVE: To compare the effect of percutaneous kyphoplasty and percutaneous vertebroplasty in repair of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. METHODS: A total of 106 patients with senile osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures were randomly divided into trial group and control group (n=53 per group). Patients in the trial group were treated with percutaneous kyphoplasty, and those in the control group treated with percutaneous vertebroplasty. Al patients were fol owed up for 6 months after repair. The vertebral compression deformation, bone cement distribution, midline vertebral bone cement condition, vertebral height restoration, bone cement leakage, vertebral kyphosis, progressive spinal col apse, nerve damage, as wel as visual analog scale scores and Oswestry disability index scores in these two groups were compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the control group, there was less bone cement leakage and vertebral compression deformation in the trial group. Moreouer, in the trial group, bone cement distributed uniformly, vertebral height restoration was good and effective, pain was obviously relieved, and the probability of vertebral kyphosis, progressive spine col apse and nerve damage was significantly reduced (al P < 0.05). These results suggest that percutaneous kyphoplasty can effectively relieve the pain of patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures, restore vertebral body height and reduce the incidence of complications, which effectively guarantees the postoperative restoration of motor function.
