Abstract
Background: Percutaneous mesh-container-plasty (PMCP), a modified traditional percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) technique, is increasingly being used to treat osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures with up-endplate injury. This retrospective study aimed to compare the clinical and radiological results of PKP and PMCP for the treatment of this disease.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of patients with osteoporotic compression fractures and upper endplate injuries treated at our hospital between January 2019 and December 2021. A total of 192 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled. Of these, 103 underwent PKP and 89 underwent PMCP. Key outcome measures included surgical safety, clinical efficacy, and radiological results.
Results: Both the PKP and PMCP groups showed significant improvements in visual analog scale and Oswestry Disability Index scores postoperatively. Additionally, anterior vertebral body height ratio and Cobb's angle improved in both groups, though no statistically significant difference was observed between them. The hospital stay duration was similar between the 2 cohorts. Notably, the PMCP group required a larger volume of bone cement injection yet exhibited a significantly lower incidence of cement leakage and adjacent vertebral fractures (9/89 and 2/89, respectively) compared to the PKP group (24/103 and 11/103, respectively) (P < 0.05). Moreover, the PMCP group had shorter operation times (34.64 ± 9.88 minutes) and reduced fluoroscopy frequency (35.43 ± 5.46 instances) compared to the PKP group (27.23 ± 8.54 minutes and 23.87 ± 5.59 instances, respectively) (P < 0.05).
Conclusions: PMCP provided superior clinical outcomes for the management of osteoporotic compression fractures with upper endplate injuries. It was associated with reduced operation and fluoroscopy times, as well as lower risks of adjacent vertebral fractures and cement leakage, compared to PKP.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
