    Patient-centered outcomes of vertebroplasty via questionnaire
    (Galenos, 2019) Karaca, Sinan; Erdem, Mehmet Nuri
    Purpose: Our aim was to evaluate patient centred outcomes of patients with compression fractures treated by vertebroplasty. Methods: Patients with compression fractures treated by vertebroplasty procedure between 2013- 2016 was examined with a 3-question through telephone call. Results: Fifty-two patients completed the telephone satisfaction survey. Of these, 92.5 % of answerers said the procedure was acceptable, 86.5% had full or partial pain remission and 78.8 % would have the procedure again. Conclusions: The use of vertebroplasty is supported by randomized trials in osteoporotic and malignant compression fractures. To the results of our study, patients believe vertebroplasty is a tolerable procedure that produces full or partial pain remission and would try the same procedure again if needed.

    A Comparison of high viscosity and low viscosity bone cement vertebroplasty for severe osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures
    (Galenos, 2019-01) Karaca, Sinan; Öztermeli, Ahmet; Akpolat, Ahmet Onur; Erdem, Mehmet Nuri; Aydoğan, Mehmet
    Introduction: Our aim in this clinical trial was to compare the safety and efficacy of highviscosity cement (HVC) with low-viscosity cement (LVC) for the treatment of osteoporotic vertebrae fractures in terms of pain, functional capacity and cement leakage in the percutaneous vertebroplasty procedure (PVP). Methods: From March 2013 to February 2015, 76 patients with vertebrae compression fracture who were admitted into hospital and treated with PVP were reviewed. Pre- and postoperative clinical characteristics of each patient were obtained by using The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score to evaluate back pain, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) as a functional assessment. Cement leakage,injected cement volume and the complications assessed due to medical records. Results: VAS and ODI scores improved (P<0.05) significantly in the two groups postoperatively on the other hand there was no significant change between two groups (P>0.05).Paravertebral cement leakage was significantly higher in the LVC group (P<0.05). Pulmonary cement embolism was also significantly higher in LVC group (P<0.05). Conclusion: HVC had lower complication rates with similar clinical results in the comparison with LVC.
