Unilateral Posterior Surgery for Severe Osteoporotic Vertebrae Fractures’ Sequelae in Geriatric Population: Minimum 5-Year Results of 109 Patients

Abstract

Subtotal PVCR combined with the insertion of an expandable titanium cage was detected as a safe and effective method for osteoporotic vertebrae fractures' sequelae in the older population involving spinal cord compression by enabling the decompression of the spinal canal and reconstruction of the resected segment, resulting in significant improvement in clinical and radiographic outcomes.
