Objective To investigate the early clinical effect of vesselplasty and percutaneous vertebroplasty in the treatment of elderly patients osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 22 patients (10 males and 12 females, aged 60~85 years old (73.1±9.6)with osteoporosis fracture treated by vesselplasty in Shanxi Bethune Hospital from March 2017 to December 2018..During the same period, 56 patients (20 males and 36 females, aged 60-80 years (70.3±9.4) were treated with percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for osteoporosis fractures.Preoperative and postoperative Visual Analogue Score (VAS), operative time, intraoperative bone cement leakage, preoperative and postoperative vertebral body anterior margin height were recorded to evaluate the clinical efficacy.ResultsIn the vesselplasty group, preoperative VAS score was 7.9±0.9, postoperative VAS score was 3.8±0.8, postoperative recovery rate of vertebral height was 19.9%±19.1%, operative time (33.6±6.2)min, and bone cement leakage was observed in 3 cases.In the PVP group,preoperative VAS score was 7.9±0.9, postoperative VAS score was 3.7±0.8, postoperative recovery rate of vertebral height was 18.8%±18.2%, operative time (35.8±6.6)min, and bone cement leakage was observed in 15 cases.Compared with the PVP group(26.8%, the bone cement leakage rate of the vesselplasty group (13.6%)was significantly reduced, and the difference was statistically significant, but there was no significant difference in other data. ConclusionBoth vesselplasty and percutaneous vertebroplasty can achieve satisfactory early clinical efficacy in the treatment of senile osteoporosis vertebral compression fractures. Bone cement leakage rate of vesselplasty is smaller and it is safer.
