A Comparative Study of the Outcomes of Surgically Versus Non‐Surgically Treated Spinal Disease in Patients With Multiple Myeloma: Northern Ireland's Experience

open access: yeseJHaem, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Multiple myeloma is a haematological malignancy which is characterised by the proliferation of cancerous plasma cells in the bone marrow. The role of spinal surgery in the management of myeloma is debatable. Therefore, this retrospective study aimed to compare the outcomes of treatment of patients with myeloma whose spinal disease ...

Biomechanical analysis of osteoporotic spines with diseases using CT-based finite element method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The eventuality of recurrent fractures on the adjacent level of fractured vertebra is becoming prevalent in this era. To date, the underlying cause of this phenomena is either due to low bone quality or adverse geometrical changes of the vertebral body,

Unipedicular Baloon Kyphoplasty [PDF]

open access: yesAsian Spine Journal, 2011
Dear Sir, The recent publication on unipedicular baloon kyphoplasty is very interesting [1]. It demonstrates that high seroprevalence could be seen [1]. La Maida et al. [1] found that "Both vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty are effective in treating vertebral compression fracture due to multiple myeloma." This is concordant with the biomechanical ...

Improved Kyphotic Restoration Reduces the Incidence of Adjacent Vertebral Fracture in Patients With Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures Treated by Percutaneous Kyphoplasty: A Clinical Study and Corresponding Numerical Simulations

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 1721-1731, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective Adjacent vertebral fracture (AVF) is a commonly observed complication in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compressive fractures (OVCF) following percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP). The primary etiology of this complication is the deterioration of the biomechanical environment.

How Accurately Does Bone Mineral Density Predict Bone Strength? A Clinical Observational Study of Osteoporosis Vertebral Compression Fractures in Postmenopausal Women

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1067-1074, April 2025.
How to directly assess bone strength in osteoporosis patients is still challenging. And The theory that bone mineral density (BMD) predicts bone strength within a range of 50%–75% is only empirical. Our work measured true bone strength by intraoperative measurement of the pressure received by the vertebral balloon, and corrected the BMD formula by ...
