Risk factors for new vertebral fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty or percutaneous kyphoplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures

Patients with osteoporosis fractures who are older, have poor glycemic control, lower bone mineral density, lower levels of 25-OH-D3, weaker paraspinal muscles, and higher fat infiltration are at increased risk of new vertebral fractures after undergoing PKP/PVP. On the other hand, maintaining regular physical activity and adhering to osteoporosis treatment can help prevent new vertebral fractures.
