Abstract EN
The treatment of traumatic low-degree vertebral compression fracture remains in a wide range between functional treatment, bracing, vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, and even surgical fixation.
The objective was to assess the innovation of instrumented kyphoplasty and to report the early and mid-term functional and radiological results.
This study is a retrospective review of patients enrolled from 2012 to 2017.
104 consecutive endovertebral implantations of instrumented kyphoplasty were reviewed for the study.
There were 56 women and 48 men.
93 of 104 patients were evaluated, of whom 27 were evaluated only by retrospective medical record review and 66 with follow-up visit.
Clinical parameters were the pain rating scale (VAS) and the Oswestry score questionnaire.
The radiological parameters were the vertebral kyphosis, vertebral height, lumbar lordosis, and adjacent disc degeneration (UCLA scale).
Statistical correlations between before/after surgery/last follow-up were performed.
The average follow-up was 26.7 months (3 to 55).
The average VAS decreased from 8.2 to 3.2 the day after surgery, allowing immediate standup.
The average Oswestry score was 14.6 at follow-up.
The average vertebral kyphosis decreased from 12.9° to 6.5° post-op and stabilized at 8.0° at the last follow-up, corresponding to 28% gain on vertebral height.
The lumbar lordosis was restored (+6.6°).
Adjacent disc degeneration increased by 1 UCLA grade in 17 patients (16.3%) at follow-up.
The instrumented kyphoplasty in acute led to immediate and lasting pain relief, with no bracing or bed rest, short stay in hospital, and quick return to daily life including professional activities.
The good clinical results were associated to a stable radiological restoration of the vertebral anatomy.
