Kyphosis correction after vertebroplasty in osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.
Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive method of treating vertebral compression fractures aimed mainly at reduction of pain. It has been observed that fractured vertebral bodies filled in with cement might also influence the increase of their height and thus lead to reduction of post-traumatic spine kyphosis. The aim of the research was to assess the possibility of reducing the kyp...

متن کاملUnilateral versus bilateral balloon kyphoplasty for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.
BACKGROUND Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) commonly occur in aged people. Balloon kyphoplasty (KP) has been proven to be efficacious for pain relief and reduction of vertebral height for patients with osteoporotic VCFs. However, very little is known about the comparison of clinical and radiographic outcomes between unilateral and bilateral balloon KP in treating this kind of...
