Bone cement-augmented vs. conventional pedicle screws for osteoporotic lumbar spondylolisthesis: a meta-analysis
Bone cement-augmented pedicle screws can significantly improve pain, functional status, intervertebral fusion rate, and screw stability in patients with osteoporotic lumbar spondylolisthesis. Although it prolongs the operation time, it does not increase the risk of intraoperative bleeding or complications, thus holding favorable clinical application value.
