				        	Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of percutaneous kyphoplasty ( PKP ) for osteoporosis vertebral compression fractures . Methods From January 2011 to June 2013, 65 patients underwent PKP .The evaluation was based on the visual analogue scale (VAS), vertebral height, and Cobb’s angle recorded at 3 days and 6 moths postoperatively.The duration of follow-up after operation was 6-12 months. Results The PKP operation was successfully completed in all the 65 cases.The VAS reduced from 6.62 ±0.63 before operation to 3.22 ±1.20 at 3 days (P =0.000) and 2.12 ±1.15 (P =0.000) at 6 months postoperatively.The vertebral height was increased from (15.26 ±1.19) mm before operation to (18.14 ±1.29) mm at 3 days (P=0.000) and (17.65 ±1.37) mm (P=0.000) at 6 months postoperatively.The Cobb’s angle was decreased from 16.25°±2.66° before operation to 6.34°±1.68°at 3 days (P=0.000) and 7.13°±1.82°(P=0.000) at 6 months postoperatively. Conclusion Percutaneous kyphoplasty can relieve pain and improve the functions .
