Abstract:Objective To investigate the factors involved in delayed vertebral union after PKP in patients with OVCF.Methods This retrospective case-control study enrolled patients who had been treated using single-segment PKP from January 2011 to January 2012.Demographic and surgical data were collected to analyze the risk factors associated with delayed vertebral union after PKP.Results A total of 580 patients with OVCF treated with PKP were enrolled in the study.Of these,29 (5.0%) had experienced delayed vertebral union and they were paired with age-and sex-matched patients who experienced vertebral union.Multivariate analyses revealed that a low preoperative bone mineral density (OR 0.114,95% CI 0.014~0.900), the presence of an intravertebral cleft (OR 35.88,95% CI 1.690~762.034),and a higher restoration rate of vertebral height (OR 4.053,95% CI 1.217~13.496) were independently associated with delayed vertebral union.Conclusion Preoperative BMD,intravertebral cleft,and restoration rate of vertebral height appear to be risk factors for delayed vertebral union after PKP in patients with OVCF.
