Vertebral Compression Fractures: Evaluation and Management

open access: yesSeminars in Interventional Radiology, 2020
AbstractPainful vertebral body compression fractures are prevalent in elderly patients. Two-thirds of patients will have spontaneous resolution of pain in 4 to 6 weeks and initial management is nonoperative with pain management and bracing. A focused history and exam can identify patients likely to benefit from vertebral body augmentation (e.g ...

A New Technique for Placing Pedicle Screws Into Bone Cement‐Strengthened Vertebrae Involving Drilling and Melting

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
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 ...
