Comparison of vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures with intravertebral clefts

Abstract: Intravertebral clefts occur primarily at the thoracolumbar junction and can be detected easily by CT and magnetic resonance imaging scans. Both VP and KP are effective in the treatment of clefts, but patients in KP group tend to have a better pain relief at the medium and long-term follow-up. However, the better pain relief effect of KP cannot be attributed to the higher magnitude of deformity correction.

“…A desired method for the treatment of VCF should offer pain relief and a deformity correction fast and safely [14][15][16]. Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and PKP have been widely used recently, which can meet the needs of patients who want to relief the pain and correct the deformity [17,18].…”

“…Cement leakage is a frequent event during the augmentation of a fractured vertebral body and impairs the safety of the procedure. Cement leakage during kyphoplasty is reported to occur less often than during vertebroplasty . The low leakage rate with BK is hypothesized to be the result of a low‐pressure injection of cement into a created cavity surrounded by compacted cancellous bone .…”

“…There are many literatures that compared the effectiveness and complications of the two procedures [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Comparison studies demonstrated similar results in terms of pain and functional status improved by VP or KP [ 13 , 14 ].…”
