Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) is a minimally invasive treatment that has been widely used for the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures and vertebral tumors. However, the maximum number of vertebral segments treated in a single PVP remains controversial. Furthermore, PVP may cause complications, including cement leakage, pulmonary embolism, bone cement toxicity, and spinal nerve-puncture injury. We report the rare case of a patient who underwent multilevel PVP for vertebral metastases, with no bone cement leakage or spinal cord injury, but who developed temporary paraparesis.

Abstract Background Percutaneous vertebroplasty related postoperative secondary fractures risk factors were not consistent in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression Fractures. The purpose was to identify the risk factors of the secondary fractures for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty.Methods Potential academic articles were identified from Cochrane Library, Medline, PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect and other databases. The time range we retrieved from was that from the inception of electronic databases to August 2019. Gray studies were identified from the references of included literature reports. STATA version 11.0 (Stata Corporation, College Station, Texas, USA) was used to analyze the pooled data.Results Fourteen studies involving 1910 patients, 395 of whom had secondary fracture following the surgery were included in this meta-analysis. The results of meta-analysis showed the risk factors of the secondary fractures for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty was related to bone mineral density [WMD= -0.518, 95%CI(-0.784,-0.252), P=0.000], cement leakage [RR=0.596, 95%CI (0.444,0.798), P=0.001] and kyphosis after primary operation [WMD=4.510, 95%CI (3.061,6.004),P=0.000], but not to gender, age, body mass index (BMI), cement volume, thoracolumbar spine, and cement injection approaches.Conclusions BMD, cement leakage and kyphosis after primary operation are the risk factors closely correlative to the secondary fracture after percutaneous vertebroplasty. There has not been enough evidence to support the association between the secondary fracture and gender, age, body mass index, cement volume, thoracolumbar spine, and cement injection approach.

AbstractSevere osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) were considered as relative or even absolute contraindication for vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty and these relevant reports are very limited. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the efficacy of vertebroplasty with high-viscosity cement and conventional kyphoplasty in managing severe OVCFs. 37 patients of severe OVCFs experiencing vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty were reviewed and divided into two groups, according to the procedural technique, 18 in high-viscosity cement percutaneous vertebroplasty (hPVP) group and 19 in conventional percutaneous kyphoplasty (cPKP) group. The operative time, and injected bone cement volume were recorded. Anterior vertebral height (AVH), Cobb angle and cement leakage were also evaluated in the radiograph. The rate of cement leakage was lower in hPVP group, compared with cPKP group (16.7% vs 47.4%, P = 0.046). The patients in cPKP group achieved more improvement in AVH and Cobb angle than those in hPVP group postoperatively (37.2 ± 7.9% vs 43.0 ± 8.9% for AVH, P = 0.044; 15.5 ± 4.7 vs 12.7 ± 3.3, for Cobb angle, P = 0.042). At one year postoperatively, there was difference observed in AVH between two groups (34.1 ± 7.4 vs 40.5 ± 8.7 for hPVP and cPKP groups, P = 0.021), but no difference was found in Cobb angle (16.6 ± 5.0 vs 13.8 ± 3.8, P = 0.068). Similar cement volume was injected in two groups (2.9 ± 0.5 ml vs 2.8 ± 0.6 ml, P = 0.511). However, the operative time was 37.8 ± 6.8 min in the hPVP group, which was shorter than that in the cPKP group (43.8 ± 8.2 min, P = 0.021). In conclusion, conventional PKP achieved better in restoring anterior vertebral height and improving kyphotic angle, but PVP with high-viscosity cement had lower rate of cement leakage and shorter operative time with similar volume of injected cement.
