Early Vertebroplasty versus Delayed Vertebroplasty for Acute Osteoporotic Compression Fracture : Are the Results of the Two Surgical Strategies the Same?

Abstract: ObjectiveIn Korea, early vertebroplasty (EVP) or delayed vertebroplasty (DVP, which is performed at least 2 weeks after diagnosis) were performed for the treatment of acute osteoporotic compression fracture (OCF) of the spine. The present study compared the outcomes of two surgical strategies for the treatment of single-level acute OCF in the thoracolumbar junction (T12-L2).MethodsFrom 2004 to 2010, 23 patients were allocated to the EVP group (EVPG) and 27 patients to the DVP group (DVPG). Overall mean age was… Show more

“…[3,[6][7][8][9] In the present study, 14.5% of the 62 patients died of causes other than vertebral fractures or PVP within 1 year after treatment. One of reasons for the current relatively high mortality rate might be that we enrolled elder patients (mean age, >80 years); elderly individuals often have several preexisting diseases and, therefore, a high risk for mortality.…”

“…Previous investigations of patient QOL after PVP were evaluated with the following systems: Quality of Life Questionnaire of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis, Assessment of Quality of Life questionnaire, European Quality of Life, 5 Dimensions scale, Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire, Bartel Index, or Oswestry Disability Index [1,8,9]. These tests can comprehensively assess an individual's ADL proficiency including eating, dressing, moving, toileting, grooming, and bathing in addition to low back pain.…”
