Incidence and risk factors of adjacent vertebral fracture after percutaneous vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty in postmenopausal women: a retrospective study

Sci Rep. 2024 Aug 3;14(1):17999. doi: 10.1038/s41598-024-68835-4.

Abstract

Adjacent vertebral fracture (AVF) is a serious complication of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) or kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF). This study aimed to explore the incidence and risk factors of AVF following PVP or PKP in postmenopausal women. The incidence of AVF was determined by spinal radiographic examinations. The potential risk factors of AVF were identified by univariate analysis, followed by multivariate logistic regression analyses to determine the independent risk factors. In total, 674 postmenopausal women who were treated with PVP or PKP from December 2019 to February 2022 were enrolled in the study. Among them, 58 (8.61%) women experienced an AVF following PVP or PKP. After adjusting for confounding factors, BMI (OR [95% CI] 0.863 [0.781-0.952]; p = 0.003), previous history of OVCF (OR [95% CI] 1.931 [1.044-3.571]; p = 0.036), and Hounsfield unit (HU) value (OR [95% CI] 0.979 [0.967-0.990]; p < 0.001) were found to be independent risk factors of AVF following PVP or PKP in postmenopausal women. The ROC analysis revealed that the BMI and HU thresholds were 21.43 and 65.15, respectively. In conclusion, the incidence of AVF was 8.61%. BMI, previous history of OVCF and HU value were independent risk factors of AVF following PVP or PKP in postmenopausal women.
