Abstract:
Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of unilateral puncture and bilateral puncture vertebroplasty in osteoporotic compression fracture patients.Methods:A regression comparative analysis was performed using case-control study to collect clinical data of 372 patients with osteoporosis compression fractures admitted to Juxian People′s Hospital from January 2022 to July 2023, including 213 males and 159 females, and the age was (59.8±6.2) years old, aged range of 50 to 70 years old. 194 patients treated with unilateral puncture vertebroplasty were included in the unilateral group, and 178 patients treated with bilateral puncture vertebroplasty were included in the bilateral group. The intraoperative indicators, vertebral changes before surgery and 6 months after surgery, and the occurrence of adverse reactions after surgery of the two groups of patients were compared. The visual analogue scale (VAS), activities of daily living (ADL) score, oswestry disability index (ODI), and quality of life (QOL) scale were used to compare the pain degree, activity ability, improvement of functional disability, and changes in quality of life and clinical efficacy of the two groups of patients before the operation and at 3 and 6 months after the operation. SPSS 21.0 software was conducted to analyze data. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as mean±standard deviation( ± s), and the comparison between groups was conducted using the t-test. The comparison of count data were represented as n(%) and was conducted by χ2 test or Fisher exact probability. Between-group comparisons of different time intervals were performed with repeated-measures analysis of variance test. Results:The surgical time, cement dosage, bleeding amount, and fluoroscopy of patients in the unilateral group were (29.86±5.87) min, (2.58±0.37) mL, (22.65±4.83) mL, and 12 times, respectively, and (42.63±4.55) min, (7.12±0.61) mL, (50.31±5.84) mL, 25 times in the bilateral group, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Preoperatively, the anterior height ratio of the vertebral body, sagittal concavity angle, and kyphosis angle of the affected vertebra in the unilateral group were (59.83±5.55)%, 13.04°±1.14°, and 18.93°±2.56°, respectively, while in the bilateral group, there were (60.28±5.79)%, 13.08°±1.13°, and 18.67°±2.69°, respectively. After the operation, the unilateral group were (90.20±5.52), 3.95°±0.57°, and 11.03°±1.21°, respectively. The bilateral group were (90.58±6.00), 3.99°±0.59°, and 10.91°±1.14°, respectively. Comparison of data before and after surgery between the two groups, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The overall complication rate of unilateral group was 13 cases (6.70%), and the overall complication rate of bilateral group was 26 cases (14.61%). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.013). The VAS, ADL, ODI, and QOL of the unilateral group were (3.49±1.10), (66.10±13.02), (18.22±4.81) and (62.10±10.00) points, the two-sided groups were (5.49±1.13), (56.19±10.27), (24.76±5.81) and (52.13±9.56) points, respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistical significance ( P<0.05), the overall treatment efficiency of patients in the unilateral group was 90.72%, and the overall treatment efficiency of patients in the bilateral group was 83.15%, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant( P<0.05). Conclusions:Unilateral puncture vertebroplasty has the advantages of short operation time, less bone cement usage, low blood loss, fewer fluoroscopy times, low complication rate, better postoperative pain relief and functional recovery, and high overall treatment efficiency in the treatment of patients with osteoporotic compression fractures. It has obvious advantages over bilateral puncture vertebroplasty.
