Abstract:[Objective] To introduce the surgical technique and preliminary clinical results of modified percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) or percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) to improve the safety of bone cement injection. [Methods] From January 2015 to January 2020, 199 patients received the modified PVP/PKP for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures in our departments. The innovation point in- cluded the integrated application of target puncture and catheterization in the fracture area, the lateral push rod assisted bone cement target injection, and pedicle trailing anchoring. The diffusion filling and leakage of bone cement were observed by intraoperative fluoroscopy, post- operative X-ray and CT. [Results] All the patients had operation performed smoothly, with operation time for single segment (1.0±0.3) hour on a mean, whereas without bone cement allergy, pulmonary embolism, surgical site infection and other major complications. Of them, 78 cases got unilateral puncture, while 121 cases got bilateral puncture. There were 5 cases of bone cement leakage, including 3 cases of inter- vertebral space leakage and 2 cases of paravertebral blood vessel leakage, with no obvious clinical symptoms occurred and no special treat- ment was needed. The patients were followed up for 12~30 months, and the VAS score decreased from (7.9±1.4) before surgery, to (2.6±0.7) a day after surgery, and (2.4±0.6) at the last follow-up. The imaging examinations showed that the height of the anterior vertebrae of the af- fected vertebrae recovered obviously, whereas the cement was fully dispersed and filled in the fracture area with stable pedicle anchor. [Conclusion] This modified vertebroplasty does effectively reduce the risk of bone cement leakage, displacement and biological toxicity, thereby improving surgical safety, with satisfactory preliminary clinical outcomes.
