Risk factors of adjacent vertebral collapse after percutaneous vertebroplasty for osteoporotic vertebral fracture in postmenopausal women
BACKGROUND Recently percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) was frequently performed for treatment of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (VFs). It is widely accepted that new compression fractures tend to occur adjacent to the vertebral bodies, typically within a month after PVP. To determine the risk factors among several potential predictors for de novo VFs following PVP in patients with osteoporosis...
متن کامل[Estimating the economic burden of osteoporotic vertebral fracture among elderly Korean women].
OBJECTIVES To estimate the economic burden of osteoporotic vertebral fracture (VF) from a societal perspective. METHODS From 2002 to 2004, we identified all National Health Insurance claims records for women >or= 50 years old with a diagnosis of VF. The first 6-months was defined as a "clearance period," Ysuch that patients were considered as incident cases if their first claim of fracture wa...
متن کاملImaging evaluation of osteoporotic vertebral fracture.
As the world's population ages, the incidence of osteoporosis defined by decreased bone mass and alteration of microarchitecture has inevitably increased. This results in osteoporosis-associated fracture and leads to debilitating health outcomes and a considerable economic burden on the health care system. In this issue of the Journal of the Chinese Medical Association, Lin and colleagues have ...
متن کاملTrunk Muscle Activity Is Modified in Osteoporotic Vertebral Fracture and Thoracic Kyphosis with Potential Consequences for Vertebral Health
This study explored inter-relationships between vertebral fracture, thoracic kyphosis and trunk muscle control in elderly people with osteoporosis. Osteoporotic vertebral fractures are associated with increased risk of further vertebral fractures; but underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Several factors may explain this association, including changes in postural alignment (thoracic kyphosis) a...
متن کاملUnilateral Transpedicular Balloon Kyphoplasty for the Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fracture
Osteoporotic Vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) constitute a major health care problem in western countries, not only because of the high incidence of these lesions but also due to their direct and indirect negative consequences for patient health-related quality of life and the costs to the health care system. Compression fractures lead to a loss of height of the vertebral segment, and th...
