BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Subsequent fracture is often seen after percutaneous
vertebroplasty. The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate preoperative …

Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and timing of subsequent
fractures in patients treated with and without percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP). Materials …

PURPOSE: To investigate the prevalence and findings of vertebral body compression
fractures adjacent to those previously treated with percutaneous vertebroplasty. MATERIALS …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: It is important to try to clarify the methodology of
vertebroplasty such as amount of cement needed, how many needles to use and the …

Object The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive factors for subsequent
vertebral fracture occurring after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) at the neighboring …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Whether vertebroplasty increases the risk of adjacent-
level vertebral fractures remains uncertain. Biomechanical and clinical studies suggest an …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Patients successfully treated with vertebroplasty often
return with new pain caused by a new vertebral body fracture. The new fractures often are …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Percutaneous vertebroplasty has been performed in the
United States in an increasing volume since the mid-1990s. The purpose of this study is to …

Purpose: To evaluate the risk factors related to the development of new fractures in adjacent
vertebrae after vertebroplasty. Material and Methods: The study was conducted on 106 …

Refractures of cemented vertebrae occasionally occur after vertebroplasty. It is unclear
whether such fractures are procedure-related or part of the natural course of osteoporosis …
