Ascending Tonic Clonic Seizure Syndrome after Percutaneous Vertebroplasty [PDF]
Background Context. Cement leakage is not a rare complication of vertebroplasty, but ascending tonic clonic seizure syndrome is exceptionally rare. We herein report the first case to our knowledge of this complication related to vertebroplasty.

Pulmonary Cement Embolism following Percutaneous Vertebroplasty [PDF]
Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a minimal invasive procedure that is applied for the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral fractures. During vertebroplasty, the leakage of bone cement outside the vertebral body leads to pulmonary cement embolism, which is a

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

Multilevel Revision Percutaneous Vertebroplasty in Elderly Patients With Osteoporotic Thoracolumbar Fractures: A Retrospective Cohort Study. [PDF]
Multilevel revision percutaneous vertebroplasty (three or four levels) provided substantial and durable pain relief and functional improvement in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar fractures, without increased complication rates. These findings support revision PVP as a safe and effective minimally invasive option for frail patients with ...
