The records of all children who underwent plain radiography of the sternum, or computed tomography of the thorax after trauma, over a 40 mo...
متن کاملVertebroplasty for vertebral compression fracture.
The patients with intensive pain caused by the vertebra body fracture were treated by application of bone cement under local or general anesthesia, by means of diascopy through unilateral transpedicular approach. The intensity of pain was followed-up on the VAS scale before surgery, 24 hours after surgery and three months after surgery. The cement was applied in 55 patients (43 women, 12 men). ...
متن کاملNew vertebral fracture after vertebroplasty.
BACKGROUND Because the complications of vertebroplasty are serious and can include new fracture, we retrospectively evaluated potential risk factors for new fracture after vertebroplasty. Our hypothesis is that thoracolumbar vertebrae adjacent to a vertebroplasty site have a higher incidence of new compression fracture than do other vertebrae. METHODS Between March 2001 and December 2002, a t...
متن کاملSandwich vertebral fracture in the study of adjacent-level fracture after vertebral cement augmentation.
The literature is inconclusive on the development of adjacent-level vertebral fracture after initial cement augmentation. A preliminary hypotheses is that cement injection exaggerates force transmission to the adjacent vertebral bodies, thereby predisposing those levels to future fractures. A sandwich vertebra is an intact vertebral body located between 2 previously cemented vertebrae. The purp...
