Abstract
External orthoses are used in the management of a variety of spinal disorders. Many types of brace are available to support the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine as well as junctional regions, which have special mechanical considerations. Many prefabricated and custom-made devices are available,...

Abstract
Fall from height is one of the important causes of musculoskeletal injuries. Fall from walnut trees constitutes an important entity that leads to a significant mortality and morbidity amongst those engaged in fruit collection. The present study aimed to determine the prevalence of different musculos...

Abstract
Vertebroplasty (VP) and kyphoplasty (KP) are minimally invasive vertebral augmentation procedures for the treatment of fresh vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) associated with osteoporosis, trauma, malignant conditions, hemangiomas, and osteonecrosis. During these procedures, bone cement (e.g.,...

Abstract
Kyphoplasty for treatment of VCF in well-selected patients may accelerate the return of independent patient function as indicated by improved measures of hospital discharge. The initially higher cost of treatment may be offset by the reduced use of posthospital medical resources. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:...

Abstract
Pathologic examination for intradural mass lesion demonstrated fibrocartilage such as disc material. After the operation, the patient's neurologic symptoms showed gradual improvement, and by postoperative day 18, he had made a full recovery. At his 1-year follow-up examination, the patient was compl...

Abstract
The 6 in vivo clinical trials were all successfully operated with significant pain relief and showed no leakage during and after the surgery. The in vitro biomechanical test showed the cement augmentation significantly increased the vertebral strength (pre 3164 (229) N vs. post 3905 (484) N, P < 0.0...

Abstract
The load-displacement response for all specimens was nonlinear. Subfailure mechanical properties with augmentation were significantly different from control; in all cases, the augmented group was 2 times higher than control. At failure, the maximum load and stiffness with augmentation was not signif...

Abstract
A number of factors need to be borne in mind in the planning and performance of instrumental fixation of the spine in patients with osteoporosis. Improved implant anchoring using special screws and cement augmentation can help to avoid implant dislocations. Nevertheless, particular attention should...

Abstract
Vertebral compression fractures are among the most common forms of manifestations of osteoporosis. Conservative treatment comprises adequate analgesia, osteoporosis medication and individualized physiotherapy or braces. Nevertheless, vertebral compression fractures frequently lead to persisting pain...

Abstract
We also noted the findings in many patients with osteoporosis and hypothesized that it is not specific for malignant lesions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of pedicle involvement in painful osteoporotic compression fractures and to determine whether the sign is specific for ma...

Abstract
Plain radiographs and bone scanning showed a compression fracture of L4 within a region of fused segments (L3-S1) after implant removal without the history of injury. BMD revealed osteopenia of -2.3 SD on the neck of the femur. The patient's symptoms were relieved by conservative treatment. The cont...

Abstract
Kyphosis angle was significantly reduced between intact and fractured states (P<0.02). Between treated and fractured states, we found highly significant difference (P<0.001), indicating full correction. During 3000 loading cycles (50-250, 50-450, and 50-650 N), the kyphosis angle remained constant c...

Abstract
There was no significant difference in bone mineral density at each level within each group. In the P group, a new fracture occurred at T10 in 2 specimens, T11 in 8, and L1 in 2. In the C group, it occurred at T10 in 1 specimen, T11 in 2, L1 in 1, and T12 (treated vertebra) in 8. The failure loads o...

The second derivative (A/M)/(M/P) indexes of thoracic vertebrae T6-T10 were significantly greater in the osteoporosis group than in the control and Scheuermann groups (P < 0.05). Contrary to the control and Scheuermann groups, the M/P indexes (T6-T10) were significantly smaller than the A/M indexes...

Abstract
In 852 patients (1131 vertebrae), 58.8% to 63.8% of new compression fractures after vertebroplasty were adjacent compression fractures. Adjacent fractures occurred much sooner than nonadjacent fractures; (71.9 +/- 71.8 days vs. 286.8 +/- 232.8 days, P < 0.001). In patients who experienced vertebral...
