Book Percutaneous Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty

Download or read book Percutaneous Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty written by John M. Mathis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-11-22 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the ?rst edition of this book was published in 2002, there have been many advances in our knowledge of percutaneous vertoplasty (PV), particularly about how to perform the procedure more safely and how to approach more complex case situations. Additionally, mate- als that were initially used “off label” or that simply were not FDA approved have completed their governmental review and have received FDA approval. This has increased the legitimacy of the p- cedure from the legal and reimbursement perspective. Controversy over height restoration and device selection has become a progressively bigger issue over time. Kyphoplasty (balloon assisted vertebroplasty) has received tremendous emphasis. This book c- pares and contrasts data and claims that differentiate kyphoplasty from percutaneous vertebroplasty. We also look at other methods that pot- tially can be used for height restoration. New procedures that deal with bone augmentation in other anatomic regions have evolved (i.e., sacroplasty) and are discussed. As this re- lution in image-guided percutaneous bone augmentation has dev- oped, multiple medical specialties have embraced these procedures in their training programs for both residents and practicing physicians.

Book Risk of Subsequent Adjacent Fractures after Vertebral Augmentation in the Treatment for Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures

Download or read book Risk of Subsequent Adjacent Fractures after Vertebral Augmentation in the Treatment for Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures written by José Manuel Ortega Zufiría and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2020-11-04 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2020 in the subject Medicine - Other, grade: 10.00, , course: NEUROCIRUGÍA, language: English, abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate whether percutaneous vertebral augmentation (PVA) was associated with clinical and radiological subsequent adjacent fractures. A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed searching on PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane library, Google Scholar, web of science and ClinicalTrial.gov from the establishment of the database to January 2020. Eligible studies assessing the subsequent adjacent fractures after PVA compared with conservative treatment (CT) were incorporated. The pooled risk ratio (RR) with its 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) was used. Heterogeneity, sensitivity and publication bias analyses were performed. A total of 24 studies were considered eligible and were included finally. 20/421 patients (4.75%) had clinical subsequent adjacent fractures from PVA group, and 25/359 patients (6.96%) had from CT group, and 46/440 patients (10.45%) from PVA group and 36/444 patients (8.10%) from CT group had radiological subsequent adjacent fractures. There both had no significant difference between two groups (RR=0.67, 95%CI: [0.38, 1.19], P = 0.17)/ (RR=1.13, 95%CI: [0.75, 1.70], P = 0.576). However, in fractured vertebrae, number in PVA group was more than that in CT group (RR=1.41, 95%CI: [1.03, 1.93], P = 0.03). Collectively, currently available literature provides data showed PVA did not increase the incidence for subsequent adjacent fractures, no matter it was clinical or radiological fracture. But PVA may increase the number of fractured vertebrae.

Book Vertebral Compression Fractures in Osteoporotic and Pathologic Bone

Download or read book Vertebral Compression Fractures in Osteoporotic and Pathologic Bone written by Afshin E. Razi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-27 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) are the most common type of fracture secondary to osteoporosis. These fractures are associated with significant rates of morbidity and mortality and annual direct medical expenditures of more than $1 billion in the United States. This book presents a concise review of the diagnosis, management and treatment of vertebral compression fractures, discussing best practices for evaluation and radiographic diagnosis of vertebral compression fractures, as well as both non-operative and operative treatment options, including cement augmentation. Opening chapters discuss both normal bone physiology as well as the pathophysiology of osteoporotic bone, and the evaluation and biomechanics of VCF, both osteoporotic and pathologic. Examination, radiography and long-term sequelae of VCF are then presented. The bulk of the remainder of the book focuses on medical, non-operative and operative management strategies, including vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty cement augmentation, management of spinal deformity, VCF adjacent to previous spinal fusion, and sacral insufficiency fractures. A final chapter on future treatment strategies rounds out the presentation. Spinal Compression Fractures in Osteoporotic and Pathologic Bone is ideal for orthopaedic trauma, spine, and neurosurgeons. The book is also intended for endocrinologists, rheumatologists, interventional radiologists, physiatrists, anesthesiologists, primary care physicians, and other practitioners who manage and treat patients with osteoporosis.

Book Third Generation Percutaneous Vertebral Augmentation Procedures

Download or read book Third Generation Percutaneous Vertebral Augmentation Procedures written by Vincenzo Salini and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty represented and represent two mainstays of minimally invasive spine surgery. Inevitably, these procedures left some unresolved issues that must be solved. This monograph is born from a concrete and shared necessity: to clarify indications and limits, to assess advantages and disadvantages and to identify new perspectives relating to use of third generation devices for percutaneous vertebral augmentation. Actually, the concept of minimally invasive surgery and tissue sparing surgery are revolutionizing always the surgical approach to many diseases, especially for spine surgery: therefore it is important to know the "when and how". This text does not want to be anything more than a "short essay", and it is aimed especially to young people, residents and specialists, but also to all those who are desirous to find and to read "something" that can be a basis for reflection, even in order to improve their surgical technique. In line with United States and Northern Europe, we are sure that the differences between Orthopaedic Surgeon and Neurosurgeon should be complementary, in order to prompt a curious comparison for creating partnerships and not barriers. In fact, this monograph is the result of the work among Neurosurgeons and Orthopaedic Surgeons. This work is born from the collaboration of many surgeons: the "elder" ones, who have offered all their knowledge and experience and the "young" ones, who are eager to learn, know and especially to share between them. In this text, spine functional anatomy and biomechanics brief mentions will be done, in order to understand well the etiology and the evolution of spinal pathology, both traumatic, metabolic and tumoral; the different treatment options will be taken into account, the open and minimally invasive techniques, the percutaneous approaches as well as third generation devices for percutaneous vertebral augmentation. The goal is not to compare the different devices in order to identify a winner. The real goal is to understand what pathological condition can bring out the best properties of a specific device, in order to establish which device is the most appropriate in a specific case. Therefore, through the experiences of Orthopaedic Surgeons, Neurosurgeons and Neuroradiologists, we will explore and identify the correct procedures, but especially the potential "red flags", in this field of research.
