Brief Summary

Percutaneous vertebroplasty is now a common procedures of patients with acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures in medical units all over China, but the efficacy and essentiality of the surgery remain uncertain and is the subject of this study. This is a multiple center open-label randomised trial. Patients were randomly allocated to percutaneous vertebroplasty or conservative treatment. Because of the procedure , neither patients nor investigators were blinded. The primary outcome was pain relief at 1 month and 1 year.
