Experimental results demonstrate that both solid bone cement blocks and bone cement in a dispersed state within bone tissue can be screwed in after thermal softening of the bone cement through Kirschner wires, achieving a good pull‐out resistance. ABSTRACT Objective Vertebroplasty with non‐degradable polymethyl methacrylate bone cement is a common ...

Incidence of fracture in adjacent levels in patients treated with balloon kyphoplasty: a review of the literature. [PDF]
The available evidence suggests that the treatment of painful vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) secondary to osteoporosis or multiple myeloma, by cement augmentation with balloon kyphoplasty (BK), is both safe and effective.

This paper systematically reviews recent advancements in propping technology and intravertebral implants addressing these PKP challenges, aiming to provide an evidence‐based foundation for optimizing the minimally invasive management of OVCF. Future development requires bioactive bone cements (e.g., magnesium/calcium phosphate‐based composites ...
