Key Points

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in treating Kümmell's disease and osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.
  • Conducting a clinical comparative study
  • Assessing pain relief and functional impairment
  • Monitoring complications during follow-up
  • PKP significantly alleviated back pain in patients
  • Improved functional impairment and corrected local deformity
  • Risks of vertebral collapse and refractures noted in follow-up

Abstract

PKP can effectively alleviate back pain, improve functional impairment, and correct local deformity in KD patients, with the risks of BCL and vertebral collapse or refractures during follow-up. It is suitable for KD treatment without nerve injury symptoms. Appropriate measures should be taken to reduce the risk of complications.
