Restoration of spinal alignment and disk mechanics following polyetheretherketone wafer kyphoplasty with StaXx FX.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE EPFs sustained during VCFs degrade the disk's ability to develop IDP under load. This inability to develop pressure in combination with residual kyphotic deformity increases the risk for adjacent vertebral fractures. We tested the hypothesis that StaXx FX reduces kyphosis and endplate deformity following vertebral compression fracture, restoring disk mechanics. MATERIAL...
متن کاملTuberculous Spondylitis Following Kyphoplasty
Tuberculous spondylitis of the augmented vertebral column following percutaneous vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty has rarely been described. We report an unusual case of tuberculous spondylitis diagnosed after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP). A 61-year-old woman presented to our institution complaining of back pain following a fall 7 days before. Radiologic studies revealed an acute osteoporotic co...
متن کاملKyphoplasty and vertebroplasty produce the same degree of height restoration.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There are few comparative studies regarding morphologic changes after kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty. The purpose of this study was to compare restoration of vertebral body height and wedge angle and cement leakage with kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty in osteoporotic compression fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty patients (57 vertebrae) were treated with kyphoplasty,...
متن کاملVertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty Can Restore Normal Spine Mechanics following Osteoporotic Vertebral Fracture
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures often lead to pain and disability. They can be successfully treated, and possibly prevented, by injecting cement into the vertebral body, a procedure known as vertebroplasty. Kyphoplasty is similar, except that an inflatable balloon is used to restore vertebral body height before cement is injected. These techniques are growing rapidly in popularity, and a great...
متن کاملWafer Bonding : Mechanics - Based Models and Experiments
Direct wafer bonding has emerged as an important technology in the manufacture of silicon-on-insulator substrates (SOI), microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), and three-dimensional inte-grated circuits (3D IC’s). While the process is currently employed in applications such as these, alack of knowledge of the basic mechanics of the process has made developing robust processes an...
