  • Effect of remote controlled injection manipulator system assisted percutaneous kyphoplasty for treatment of rupture of posterior vertebral osteoporotic vertebral fracture

    Objective To evaluate the effect of remote controlled injection manipulator system (RCIM) assisted percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for the treatment of rupture of posterior vertebral osteoporotic vertebral fracture by comparing with intermittent hand bolus injection of bone cement during operation. Methods Between September 2010 and January 2016, a retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 48 senile patients with single segment rupture of the posterior vertebral osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture undergoing PKP who accorded with the inclusion criteria. Of 48 patients, 22 received intermittent hand bolus injection of bone cement in the control group, and 26 received RCIM assisted bone cement perfusion in the trial group. There was no significant difference in age, gender, duration of disease, causes of injury, implicated vertebral bodies, bone mineral density T value, pain duration, preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS), relative vertebral body height in the anterior part, and posterior convex Cobb angle between groups (P>0.05). The bone cement perfusion time, the radiation dose of both doctors and patients, and the amount of bone cement injection were recorded; treatment effects were evaluated based on VAS score, posterior convex Cobb angle, relative ver-tebral body height in the anterior part, ratios of bone cement diffusion area and bone cement leakage rate. Results The patients were followed up for 6 months; no complications of toxic effect of bone cement, spinal cord or nerve root injuries, infection and vascular embolization occurred during follow-up period. There was no significant difference in bone cement injection amount and radiation dose of doctors between groups (P>0.05), but bone cement perfusion time, ratios of bone cement diffusion area, and radiation dose of patients were significantly lower in the trial group than the control group (P<0.05). Bone cement leakage was observed in 6 cases of the control group (27.27%) and 2 cases of the trial group (7.69%), showing significant difference between groups (χ2=4.850,P=0.029); no cement leakage into the spinal canal was found in both groups. VAS score, relative vertebral body height in the anterior part, and posterior convex Cobb angle were significantly improved at 3 days and 6 months after operation when compared with preoperative ones (P<0.05), but no significant difference was observed in the above indexes between groups at 3 days and 6 months after operation (P>0.05). Conclusion Satisfactory effectiveness can be achieved by applying RCIM assisted PKP for the treatment of rupture of posterior vertebral osteoporotic vertebral fracture. RCIM can shorten perfusion time, reduce radiation dose, and decrease incidence of bone cement leakage.
