Percutaneous Vertebroplasty for Painful Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures: A Retrospective Comparative Study of a Negative Pressure-Guided Technique. [PDF]

Orthop Surg
In 60 patients with vertebral compression fractures, negative‐pressure‐guided vertebroplasty (NPVP) promoted more uniform cement distribution and reduced cement leakage compared with conventional PVP, resulting in greater perioperative safety and improved radiographic and clinical outcomes at 3 months.

Advances in Vertebral Augmentation Systems for Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures [PDF]

Pain Research and Management, 2020
Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) is a common cause of pain and disability and is steadily increasing due to the growth of the elderly population. To date, percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) are almost universally accepted as appropriate vertebral augmentation procedures for OVCFs.
