Abstract Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and clinical treatment effect of somatic referred pain of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture(OVCF).Methods The clinical data of patients with OVCF hospitalized in our department from June 2013 to June 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.41 patients with somatic referred pain were enrolled this study.There were 8 males and 33 females,with an average age of (75.5±5.5)(range 64~91).The Type of somatic referred pain were classified into A~E types according to the pain distribution patterns.All patients underwent percutaneous kyphoplasty(PKP) ,the visual analog scale (VAS) and the Oswestry disability index (ODI) were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively to assess the pain and disability degree of patients.Results 41 patients were analyzed and types distribution were 20 cases of Type A,7 cases of Type B,6 cases of Type C,3 cases of Type D and 5 cases of Type E.The VAS and ODI significantly improved postoperatively and final follow-up in all patients(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in VAS and ODI score preoperatively between the different types (P>0.05),but significant differences was found in VAS and ODI score during postoperative and final follow-up (P<0.01).Conclusion Somatic referred pain is more common in patients with OVCF,Type A is the most common type,and Type D and Type E are relatively rare.PKP is an effective treatment for OCVF with somatic referred pain.
