NCT03850938

Brief Summary

Kyphoplasty(PKP) is performed under general anaesthesia in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture. The balloon is first placed into the fractured vertebra and inflated with contrast agent for height restoration. Then, the cement is injected into the cavity created by the balloon. As the diffusion of cement can be interfered by closely barriers formed by surrounding cancellous bones, refractures are often found in patients with conventional PKP. Furthermore, the loss of restored height of surgical vertebrae due to refracture in PKP. The investigators will applied a rotary cutter to destroy the structure of the cavity created by the balloon. Finally, the cement is injected, which may effectively interdigitates with the surrounding cancellous bone.

Study Arms (2)

Conventional Kyphoplasty

EXPERIMENTAL

The balloon is first placed into the fractured vertebra and inflated with contrast agent for height restoration. Then, the cement is injected into the cavity created by the balloon.

Device: Conventional Kyphoplasty

Kyphoplasty with Rotary Cutter

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The balloon is first placed into the fractured vertebra and inflated with contrast agent for height restoration, which may induce a cavity with barriers pushed by balloon dilatation. Then, the structure of the cavity is destroyed by a rotary cutter. Finally, the cement is injected, which may effectively interdigitates with the healthy cancellous bone.

Device: Kyphoplasty with Rotary Cutter

Interventions

The cement is injected into the cavity created by PKP. The diffusion of cement can be interfered by closely barriers formed by surrounding cancellous bones.

Also known as: Conventional PKP
Conventional Kyphoplasty

The rotary cutter is applied before cement injection to destroy the structure around the cavity created by inflated balloon. Then, the rotary cutter will make the bone cement to support a wider range and to blend with the surrounding cancellous bones more densely.
