English Abstract:
  【Abstract】 Objective:To investigate the correlative factors associated with non-surgical vertebral fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty(PVP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures(OVCFs).Method:From January 2007 to March 2010,42 out- and in-patients with non-surgical vertebral fractures after PVP for OVCFs were included in this study.There were 8 males and 34 females with the average age of 67.3 years(range,55-82 years old).All patients underwent X-Ray and MRI to confirm the onset of non-surgical segment fracture.68 patients without the non-surgical segment fracture after PVP were selected as the control, who were 17 males and 51 females with an average age of 60.1 years(range,52-75 years old).The bone mineral density(BMD) of lumbar spine was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry,and the patients′ age,sex,body mass index(BMI),operative site and approach,administration of glucocorticoids for more than 1 year or without were recorded.The correlative factors associated with the non-surgical vertebral fractures were analyzed.Result:Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences(P<0.05) between two groups with respect to age,BMD,whether to take glucocorticoids,whereas no significant differences(P>0.05) with regard to sex,BMI,operative site and approach.Multiple logistic regression analysis showed old age,BMD≤-2.5SD,administration of glucocorticoids for more than 1 year were the predominant risk factors associated with non-surgical segment fracture,with the OR value of 3.775,5.980 and 3.401 respectively(P<0.05).Conclusion:Old age,osteoporosis and administration glucocorticoids for more than 1 year are the relative risk factors of non-surgical vertebral fractures after PVP for OVCFs.
