Clinical Application Of Percutaneeous Kyphoplasty In Treating Osteoporosis Vertebral Compression Fractures

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate clinical application of percutaneous kyphoplasty in the treatment of osteoprosis vertebral compression fracture.Methods:27 cases of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture by percutaneous kyphonplasty(PKP) were stadied. There were 9 male and 18 females with an average 68.4 years. Visual Analogue PainScale(VAS), Oswsetry Disability Indexs(ODI) and Japanes Orthopedics Assoiation(JOA) at pre-operation, at 72 hours post-operation and at 3 months post-operation were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy. Pain relief Was assessed by WHO criteria.Results:The mean value of Visual Analogue PainScale(VAS) were 7.4±1.59 at pre-operation,2.37±1.26 at 72 hours post-operation and 2.14±1.01 at 3 months post-operation, the mean value of Oswsetry Disability Indexs(ODI) were 65.92±14.16 at pre-operation,25.48±10.32 at 72 hours post-operation and 24.48±11.87 at 3 months post-operation, The mean value of Japanes Orthopedics Assoiation(JOA) were 11.07±4.1 at pre-operation,23.48±2.76 at 72 hours post-operation and 23.03±3.21 at 3 months post-operation. There were statistically significant differences(P < 0.001) between pre-operation and post-operation with Visual Analogue PainScale(VAS), Oswsetry Disability Indexs(ODI) and Japanes Orthopedics Assoiation(JOA). In the 27 cases of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture by percutaneous kyphonplasty(PKP), there have 15 patients were complete remission(CR), and 12 patients were partial remission(PR). The efficacy of clinical treatment(CR+PR) was 100%.Conclusion:Pains of patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture can be relieved faster and efficacious by percutaneous kyphoplasty(PKP), and developping their independment quality of life.
