Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Risk factors for vertebral re-fracture after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) have been studied, but have not been confirmed, and the treatment measurements remain controversial.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the risk factors for vertebral re-fracture after PKP and to explore the application value of targeted risk factor intervention in the prevention of re-fracture after PKP.
METHODS: Totally 60 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures from April 2009 to April 2011 treated with PKP were used as group A. The risk factors for vertebral re-fracture after PKP were evaluated by Logistic multivariate analysis, and the targeted risk factor intervention was designed. Sixty patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures from May 2013 to May 2015 undergoing PKP served as group B, and treated with targeted intervention (injecting bone cement into the nearby vertebrae with intravertebral vacuum cleft; administrating antiosteoporosis drug, and receiving medication guidance). The postoperative incidence of re-fracture was recorded and compared between two groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) After followed up for 18 months postoperatively, in the group A, there were 21 cases of re-fracture and 38 cases of none-fracture. In the group B, there were 10 patients with re-fracture. The survival time in 2 years without adverse event in the group B was significantly longer than that in the group A (P=0.015). (2) The results of Logistic multivariate model analysis showed that the T score of bone mineral density at baseline, compliance of anti-osteoporosis treatment, history of glucocorticoid, postoperative bone cement leakage and intravertebral vacuum cleft were independent factors for re-fracture after PKP (P < 0.05). (3) The ROC analysis showed that the preoperative T score of bone mineral density and compliance of anti-osteoporosis treatment predicted that the AUC of re-fracture after PKP were 0.772 and 0.693 respectively (β=0.064, 0.067; 95%CI=0.646-0.898, 0.562-0.823; P=0.001, 0.014). The best cut-off values were -3.74 and 4.53 scores respectively, the sensitivities were 0.795 and 0.81, respectively, and the specificities were 0.762 and 0.59 respectively. (4) These results indicate that we should pay more attentions for prediction role of high risk factors (including preoperative bone mineral density, compliance of postoperative anti-osteoporosis treatment, and history of glucocorticoid), and giving targeted interventions will reduce the incidence of postoperative fracture and improve the prognosis.
