Summary: Bone mineral density, cement leakage, and kyphosis after primary operation are the risk factors closely associated with secondary fractures after PVP. There is insufficient evidence to support the association between secondary fractures and gender, age, body mass index, cement volume, thoracolumbar spine, and cement injection approaches.

Summary: The study evaluated the feasibility and safety of percutaneous transpedicular fixation by PEEK polymer implants and cementoplasty for vertebral compression fracture (VCF) in 6 patients. The results showed that the procedure is feasible and safe, with positive outcomes in terms of pain relief and disability improvement.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the trends in PV procedures and evaluate the yearly national costs in Italy. Data from 2009 to 2015 showed a high number of PV surgeries in Italy, with females being the majority of patients. The median length of hospital stay was 4.15 days, and the mean hospital reimbursement for each PV hospitalization was 4,629 euros.PV costs were relatively lower compared to other countries.

Summary: The study compared spinal bone measures derived from automatic and manual assessment in routine clinical CT with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in their association with prevalent osteoporotic vertebral fractures. The results indicated that CT-based measures outperformed DXA in predicting vertebral fractures, with manual volumetric BMD being the strongest predictor.

Summary: In comparison to NSM, the study shows that VP/BKP can reduce the 12-month risk of all-cause mortality and morbidity in patients with OVCFs by 19% and 36%, respectively. Furthermore, VP/BKP reduces the 12-month risk of infection from any origin by 77%.

Summary: High-viscosity bone cement (HVBC) and low-viscosity bone cement (LVBC) have similar clinical outcomes in the treatment of thoracic vertebral compression fractures, but HVBC has less cement leakage, a larger injection volume, and better postoperative pain relief.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between opportunistic CT bone density measurements and the occurrence of new vertebral fractures after percutaneous vertebral cementoplasty (PVC) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF). The results showed that low opportunistic vertebral density measurements were associated with a higher risk of recurrent OVCF and fracture cascades after PVC.

Summary: Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) is more effective than conservative treatment (CT) in treating osteoporotic vertebral fractures, with limited benefits compared to placebo. Short-term PVP provides faster pain relief, while medium and long-term results help improve quality of life.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the risk of sandwich vertebral fractures in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures via percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP). The study found that PVP had a higher risk of sandwich vertebral fractures compared to PKP, potentially due to the larger amount of bone cement, higher rate of cement leakage, and larger Cobb angle.

Summary: This article summarizes the recent advances in the understanding of vertebral fractures, with a focus on endocrine diseases, prevention, and treatment. It highlights the increased risk of vertebral fractures in patients with endocrine diseases and the current focus on invasive treatments. It also mentions that licensed treatments are effective in reducing the occurrence of vertebral fractures in osteoporosis patients.

Summary: The role of dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) in the management of vertebral compression fractures was evaluated and compared with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The study found no significant difference in clinical outcomes and pain relief between the two imaging approaches.

Summary: Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures are a common consequence of osteoporosis and a major healthcare crisis worldwide. The management of these fractures requires pain management and fracture stabilization. A meta-analysis compared vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty in terms of clinical outcomes for these fractures.

Summary: Patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures undergoing percutaneous vertebroplasty may have risk factors for secondary fractures, including additional history of fracture, age, bone mineral density, bone cement leakage, intravertebral fracture clefts, and Cobb Angle, but the height of vertebral anterior and body mass index are not correlated with the risk of secondary fractures.

Summary: This study reports on the safety and clinical effectiveness of cryoablation for the treatment of spinal metastases (SM) in patients needing pain palliation or local tumor control (LTC). The study found that cryoablation combined with vertebral augmentation is a safe and effective treatment option for SM, providing fast and sustained pain relief and high rates of LTC at a 2-year follow-up.

Summary: Percutaneous vertebroplasty (VP) provides substantial benefit to patients with painful osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF). However, the reoccurrence of vertebral fracture after VP is a major concern. This meta-analysis found that the incidence of subsequent fractures after VP was 23.4%, with the majority of fractures occurring in the vertebral bodies adjacent to the treated vertebra.
