Improved Kyphotic Restoration Reduces the Incidence of Adjacent Vertebral Fracture in Patients With Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures Treated by Percutaneous Kyphoplasty: A Clinical Study and Corresponding Numerical Simulations
The clinical review and biomechanical simulations revealed that a greater degree of kyphotic correction during PKP procedures, along with a decreased postoperative kyphotic deformity, may help lower the incidence of AVF by easing stress concentration in the neighboring vertebral bodies. This topic deserves further validation through future prospective studies.
