Abstract
Abstract
Background
The purpose of this study is to explore the therapeutic effect of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) combined with anti-osteoporosis drug, zoledronic acid, on postmenopausal women with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) and to perform an analysis of postoperative bone cement leakage risk factors.
Methods
A total of 112 OVCF patients, according to therapeutic regimens, were divided into control group (n = 52, treated with PKP) and observation group (n = 60, treated with PKP and zoledronic acid injection).
Results
Postoperative tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 levels were significantly decreased in the two groups, compared with those before treatment (both P < 0.05); bone mineral density (BMD), serum bone gla protein (BGP), and vertebral height ratio of injured vertebrae were significantly increased, and procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP), Cobb angle, visual analogue scale/score (VAS), and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment (all P < 0.05). There were significantly higher changes in difference value of BMD, PINP, BGP, vertebral height ratio of injured vertebrae, Cobb angle, VAS, and ODI levels and significantly better therapeutic effect in the observation group than those in the control group (all P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the use of zoledronic acid, vertebral height ratio of injured vertebrae, and ODI were independent factors affecting the therapeutic effect, and that the dosage of bone cement, and peripheral vertebrae wall damage were independent risk factors causing postoperative bone cement leakage. There were no significant differences in postoperative bone cement leakage rate between the two groups.
Conclusions
Peripheral vertebrae wall damage and the dosage of bone cement are independent risk factors causing bone cement leakage in OVCF patients treated with PKP. PKP combined with zoledronic acid has an improvement effect on the condition of postmenopausal women with OVCF and reduces the inflammation and pain in patients, which is beneficial to clinical treatment.
