Effect of vertebroplasty combined with pedicle internal fixation on senile osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture

Objective:To investigate the effect of vertebroplasty combined with pedicle screw fixation in the treatment of senile osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.Methods:Eighty-one patients with senile osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures were enrolled in our hospital from January 2015 to January 2019.They were randomly divided into a single group(40 cases)and a combined group(41 cases).),a single group was treated with pedicle screw internal fixation,and the combined group was treated with vertebroplasty.The recovery,pain and dysfunction index of the injured vertebrae before and after operation were compared between the two groups.The serum neurological function related indexes before and after operation were compared and the incidence of postoperative adverse events were recorded.Results:There was no significant difference in the recovery of the injured vertebrae between the two groups(P>0.05).The compression ratio,spinal stenosis rate and Cobb angle of the combined group were significantly lower than the single group(P<0.05).On the 3rd postoperative day,there were no significant differences between the two groups in Visual Analogue Scale/Score(VAS)and Oswestry Dability Index(ODI)scores(P>0.05).The VAS and ODI scores of the group were significantly lower than those of the single group(P<0.05).On the 3rd day after surgery,the neuron-specific enolase(NSE)and brain derived neurotrophic factor(brain-derived neurotrophic factor)were used.The levels of BDNF,S100βand Nerve growth factor(NGF)were not significantly different(P>0.05).At 3 months after operation,the level of BDNF in the combined group was significantly higher than that in the single group.The levels of NSE,S100βand NGF were significantly lower than that of the single group.The group(P<0.05);the incidence of adverse events in the combined group was significantly lower than that in the single group(P<0.05).Conclusions:Vertebroplasty combined with pedicle screw fixation for the treatment of senile osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture can effectively improve the recovery of postoperative vertebral body structure,postoperative pain and dysfunction in Jianing patients,improve postoperative neurological function To reduce the incidence of adverse events,with clinical promotion significance.
