Therapeutic vertebral cement augmentation for the treatment of painful skeletal diseases,
although widely applied for more than several decades, still has not thoroughly resolve the …

Background The aim of this meta-analysis is to examine the safety and effectiveness of
unilateral percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for treatment of osteoporotic vertebral …

Background Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) typically involves conventional lower-
viscosity cement injection via bipedicular approach. Limited evidence is available …

Background: Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a widely used vertebral augmentation
procedure for treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs). But high …

Objective To compare the clinical outcome and complications of high viscosity and low
viscosity poly-methyl methacrylate bone cement PVP for severe OVCFs. Methods From …

Study Design: A prospective randomized study. Objectives: To evaluate the effect of bone
cement viscosity as well as of bone porosity on cement leakage during vertebroplasty and to …

Background: Percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) has been proven as an effective, minimally
invasive procedure for the treatment of Kummell's disease in the early stages. However, a …

Background Up to one third of BKP treated cases shows no appreciable height restoration
due to loss of both restored height and kyphotic realignment after balloon deflation. This …

Purpose The effectiveness of vertebral augmentation techniques is a currently highly
debated issue. The biomechanical literature suggests that cement filling volumes may play …

Background: Percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) is an effective treatment for osteoporotic
vertebral compression fractures (OVCF). Comparisons of different approaches have …
