Efficacy of Balloon Kyphoplasty in Compression Fractures of the Thoracolumbar Spine

Objective: To study the Efficacy of Balloon Kyphoplasty in compression fractures thoracolumbar spine.
 Material and Methods: This was conducted on 95 patients with wedge from 2017 to 2022. Complete neurological examination CT MRI scans spine all were done. All have been treated a balloon kyphoplasty procedure. Data collected VAS score, SF-36 kyphotic angle percentage vertebral body destruction both preoperatively post-operatively. Statistical analysis done by using paired sample t-test.
 Results: The mean age 57 years. Males 58.9% females 41.0%. Osteoporosis cause fracture 90.5% trauma 9.4% patients. improved 7.42 ± 1.24 post-procedure 3.24 1.51, P < 0.0001. 35.31 17.4 49.23 19.2, Kyphosis restoration 18.42 7.41 10.61 6.32, value Percentage loss height 32.91% postoperatively 17.64% (SD-17.2 0.0001). 10.5% developed cement leakage there is no 89.4%. adjacent level occurred 4 patients.
 Conclusion: an effective procedure for fractures. It improves pain, activities daily living, kyphosis improvement, height.
