Abstract:
Objective To discuss the technique and technique-related issues of percutaneous kyphoplasty(PKP).Methods The study involved 69 vertebrae in 51 cases of painful osteoporotic vertebral compressive fractures.Under X-ray fluoroscopy monitoring,the fractured vertebral bodies were treated by kyphonplasty with inflatable balloon.The preoperative and postoperative vertebral height and Cobb angle in radiography were measured and analyzed.Results All patients tolerated the procedure well with dramatic pain relief within 72 hours after the procedure.No clinical complication was found.The loss heights of the anterior and mid portion of the vertebral body reduced from 15?4mm and 11?4mm preoperatively to 10? 4mm and 6?3mm postoperatively,respectively.Cobb angle corrected averagely from 22??6? preoperatively to 12??4?.There was significant difference between preoperative and postoperative measures (P
