New compression fractures study findings have been reported from Yonsei University.(Report)
"This study was undertaken to investigate the incidence rate, characteristics, and predisposing factors associated with recollapse of the same vertebrae after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP). Recollapse of the same vertebra after PVP is the one of the complications of the procedure, and the incidence rate in our study was 3.21%," investigators in Seoul, South Korea report (see also Compression Fractures).
"The most important predisposing factor was pre-operative osteonecrosis. Recollapse was not related to trauma. PVP using polymethylmethacrylate has become a popular treatment for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture. Recollapse of the same vertebrae after PVP has rarely been reported. This study was undertaken to investigate the incidence, characteristics, and predisposing factors associated with recollapse of the same vertebrae after PVP. Eleven patients (seven females and four males; mean age, 69.91 +/- 5.49 years), out of a total of 343 patients, developed recollapse of the same vertebra after PVP. The 11 patients who developed recollapse comprised the ''recollapse group'', while the remaining 332 patients comprised the ''well-maintained group''. Pre-operative magnetic resonance imaging revealed that the incidence of osteonecrosis was significantly higher in the recollapse group than the well-maintained group (p
The researchers concluded: "Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture with osteonecrosis or pseudoarthrosis has been regarded as a relative indication ...
