  • Results of treatment of painful vertebral fractures by kyphoplasty or orthosis : prospective nonrandomized controlled study
    Fokter, Samo K. ; Strahovnik, Andrej, ortoped, 1977-
    This study analyzed the results of treatment of painful vertebral fractures in patients with primary osteoporosis with balloon kyphoplasty compared with conventional management. Half of the patients ... were treated with balloon kyphoplasty and half of the patients with thoracolumbosacral orthosis (TLSO). Outcomes included back pain severity measured on visual analog scale (VAS), activity level (VAS), bed rest, SF-36 medical outcomes survey, subject satisfaction, and radiomorphology. Patients reported severe back pain interfering with daily activities before treatment. Physical functioning and quality of life were also markedly impaired. Statistically significant (p < 0.05) improvements occures in all pain and functional outcomes after treatmentin the kyphoplasty group. Minor improvements were noted in the orthosis group. Clinical outcomes were significantly different between the groups (p < 0.05). Kyphoplasty increased midline vertebral height of the treated vertebral bodies, whereas in the orthosis group, vertebral height decreased.
