Özet
Objective: The aim of this study is to better understand which type of fracture and localization have more painful or worse outcomes for the kyphoplasty procedure. Materials and Methods: Kyphoplasty cases operated between 2013 and 2018 were included in the study. The patients were contacted through the numbers registered in the hospital system. A questionnaire were asked to the patients. Patients were grouped according to gender, fracture level (T12-L1 and others) and fracture type (Osteoporotic, trauma, malignancy, unknown). Results: Fourty-one patients were included in the study. Three-quarters of the patients were women and average age was 62. Ninety-two percent of the patients stated that the pain of the procedure was tolerable. Seventy percent reported that their pain decreased after the procedure and 75% of the patients stated that they could have this procedure done again. Pain reduction and the desire to have same surgery again were significantly higher in female patients than in the male group (p<0.05). In the T12-L1 group and osteoporotic fracture group, the procedure was more easily tolerated, the pain was relieved more and the desire to have the same surgery was higher (p<0.05). Conclusion: Kyphoplasty is accepted as an operation that is well tolerated by patients and has good pain relief. Additionally more detailed information was obtained about the patient’s complaints after the kyphoplasty procedure, according to the fracture level and type.
