Real-world rates and risk factors for subsequent treatment with vertebroplasty or balloon kyphoplasty after initial vertebral augmentation: a retrospective cohort study
One in seven patients underwent subsequent treatment for vertebral fracture after initial vertebral augmentation. Baseline patient characteristics were associated with increased risk of subsequent fracture within 2 years, suggesting that a patient's natural history is strongly associated with risk of subsequent treatment rather than the initial surgical procedure itself.
