Clinical Efficacy of Percutaneous Vertebroplasty in the Treatment of Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures and its Effect on Vertebral Height Loss
Objective To study the clinical efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty(PKP)in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures(OVCF)and its effect on vertebral height loss.Methods The observation group had the higher total treatment efficiency rate than that in the control group(P<0.05).Both groups had lower VAS and ODI scores after treatment than those in before,and the observation group had lower VAS and ODI scores than those in the control group(P<0.05).The height of the anterior edge of the vertebral body before and after treatment in the control group were no significant difference(P>0.05),but the kyphosis cobb angle after treatment was smaller than that before treatment in the control group(P<0.05).The height of the anterior edge of the vertebral body in the observation group was higher than that before treatment,and the kyphosis cobb angle was smaller than that before treatment(P<0.05).The incidence of treatment complications between the two groups were no significant difference(P>0.05).Conclusion PKP is effective in the treatment of OVCF,which can restore the vertebral height,correct the kyphosis deformity,promote the relief of pain and dysfunction,and has high safety.
