Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Percutaneous vertebroplasty has been gradual y used to treat Kümmel disease because of less trauma and quick pain relief, but there is stil a high rate of bone cement leakage. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty with high-viscosity bone cement plus hyperextension position reset for treatment of Kümmel ’s disease. METHODS: The clinical data of 17 patients with Kümmel ’s disease were retrospectively analyzed, including 5 males and 12 females, aged 55-83 years, and al underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty with high-viscosity bone cement plus hyperextension position reset. The visual analog scale, Oswestry disability index score, vertebral body height and vertebral kyphosis angle were determined. The bone cement leakage, pulmonary embolism, adjacent vertebral fractures and other complications were recorded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At the 12th Oswestry disability index scores and vertebral kyphosis angle of patients were significantly lower than those before treatment (P < 0.05), the vertebral body height was significantly higher than that before month of follow-up, the visual analog scale scores, treatment (P < 0.05). After treatment, there were three cases of bone cement leakage, which had no special discomfort and neurological symptoms, and one case of new fractures. These results demonstrate that hyperextension position reset combined with percutaneous vertebroplasty with high-viscosity bone cement in treatment of Kümmel ’s disease can effectively relieve back pain, improve function of the lower back, partial y restore vertebral height and reduce kyphosis angle.
