Abstract

bjective: Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) is currently the most common surgical procedure for unstable Kummell disease (KD), but cement loosening or displacement often occurs after PVP. We had been using percutaneous pediculoplasty (PPP) or a self-developed bone cement bridging screw system to avoid this severe complication. This study intends to compare these novel surgical procedures through a 2-year follow-up evaluation.Methods: From May 2017 to May 2021, 77 patients with single-level unstable KD were included in the PPP group, and 42 patients received the PVP-bone cement bridging screw system were included in the screw group. The changes in the vertebral body index (VBI), bisegmental Cobb angle, visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and the cement loosening rate and displacement rate at different follow-up time points were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy.Results: There was no significant difference in VBI or bisegmental Cobb angle between the 2 groups (p > 0.05) before operation, immediately after operation and at 6-month followup, while at 1-year and 2-year postoperative evaluations, the screw group had higher VBI and bisegmental Cobb angle than the PPP group (p < 0.05). Before operation, immediately after operation, at 6-month and 1-year follow-up, there was no significant difference in VAS or ODI score between the 2 groups (p > 0.05), while at 2-year follow-up, the screw group still had higher VAS and ODI scores than the PPP group (p < 0.05). No bone cement displacement occurred in both groups, but the rate of bone cement loosening was 14.29% in group PPP, and 0 in screw group (p < 0.05).Conclusion: This 2-year follow-up study shows that the PVP-bone cement bridging screw system combined therapy had better midterm treatment efficacy than the PVP-PPP combined therapy in patients with unstable KD, and the bone cement bridging screw system is a preferred therapy with better anti cement loosening ability.
