Abstract:Objective To explore the clinical effect of percutaneous pedicle screw fixation combined with vertebroplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic spinal compression fractures of single vertebral body.Methods Sixty patients with osteoporotic spinal fractures treated in our hospital from March 2016 to March 2017 were selected as study subjects.According to the method of randomization of envelopes,they were divided into control group and observation group,with 30 cases in each group.The patients in the control group were treated with vertebroplasty alone.The observation group was treated with percutaneous pedicle screw fixation combined with vertebroplasty.The clinical effects of the two groups were compared.Results In the observation group,the excellent and good rate,Barthel score,vertebral body height recovery rate were higher than those in the control group,the Oswestry score,the VAS score,complication rate,vertebral body height compression rate were lower than those in the control group,and kyphosis angle was less than that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Percutaneous pedicle screw fixation combined with vertebroplasty is effective in the treatment of patients with osteoporotic spinal fractures.
