There is an ongoing concern about the risk of injury to the spine in professional rugby players. The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence of vertebral fracture using vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) imaging in professional male rugby players. Ninety five professional rugby league (n = 52) and union (n = 43) players (n = 95; age 25.9...
Although over 300 articles have been published annually on vertebral augmentation in the last 5 years, there remains much debate about a fundamental question - is vertebral augmentation a safe and effective treatment to achieve analgesia, reduce disability, and improve quality of life in patients with a vertebral fracture? In this modern era of evidence-based clinical practice and public health...
Accidental and nonaccidental spinal injuries are generally rarely seen in infants. If affected, vertebral bodies usually present compression fractures due to forced hyperflexion or hypertension. Radiographic examination of the infantile skeleton can reveal a radiolucent band running through a vertebral body. These so called vertebral clefts are mainly visualized in the lateral spinal radiograph...
Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a promising therapeutic technique for pain control in patients with pathologic fractures of vertebral bodies. Percutaneous vertebroplasty is an appropriate treatment for vertebral pathologic fractures, which is resistant to other usual treatment. It is a useful and only choice in special cases, because of less tissue damage and there is no risk of open surgery and...
Given its increasing incidence and serious complications, osteoporosis requires safe and effective long-term treatment. Strontium ranelate (SR), a new anti-osteoporotic treatment with a unique mode of action, has been investigated in the Spinal Osteoporosis Therapeutic Intervention (SOTI) and the Treatment Of Peripheral OSteoporosis (TROPOS) trials, two major 3-year multinational placebo-contro...
PURPOSE Vertebral fractures due to osteoporosis are a potential complication of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). To date, the incidence of vertebral fractures during ALL treatment has not been reported. PATIENT AND METHODS We prospectively evaluated 155 children with ALL during the first 12 months of leukemia therapy. Lateral thoracolumbar spine radiographs were obtained at basel...
BACKGROUND Elderly patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are usually at a high risk of fractures due to both osteoporosis and CKD-mineral bone disease (MBD). A new marker is needed to prevent fractures and control CKD-MBD from the early to advanced stages of CKD. In the early stage of CKD, fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) level increases before parathyroid hormone (PTH) and phosphate le...
Study Design Case report. Objective The objective of this study was to report a case of an unstable C1 burst fracture in the setting of a vertebral artery anomaly at the craniovertebral junction. Methods A 55-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with severe neck pain after falling approximately 15 feet and landing on his head. Computed tomography scan of the cervical spine revealed an unst...
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. PURPOSE To estimate the usefulness of bone scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnosis of new fracture in osteoporotic vertebral fractures. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE The diagnosis of new fractrure in osteoporotic vertebral fractures requires simple X-ray and supplementary studies. METHODS We analyzed 87 vertebrae in 44 patients, who diagnosed...
The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the efficacy of an injectable hydroxyapatite cement in combination with long posterior transpedicular instrumentation, without fusion, for the treatment of unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures. Ten patients with this type of fracture were treated in the period 1999-2000 with bisegmental posterior transpedicular stabilisation above and below th...
