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 ...

Traumatic or Nontraumatic: A Case of Spinal Subdural Hematoma Caused by Multiple Factors
ABSTRACT Spinal subdural hematoma (SSDH) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication following spinal decompression surgery. Vertebral compression fractures in elderly patients are commonly associated with osteoporosis. This case illustrates how the interplay of bleeding diatheses, coagulopathy, and medication interactions may collectively ...
