ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To investigate efficacy of 3-month teriparatide(TPD) and compare this treatment with vertebroplasty in terms of clinical and radiographic outcomes after osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs).METHODS:
This is a retrospective matched cohort study. Patients who received conservative treatment with at least 3-month TPD treatment for acute OVCF with at least 6 months follow-up were included. Each enrolled TPD case was matched with 2 vertebroplasty cases using age and gender. 30 TPD cases and 60 vertebroplasty cases were enrolled. Patient-reported pain scores were obtained at diagnosis and 1, 3, 6 months after diagnosis. Radiographic parameters including middle body height, posterior body height, wedge angle and kyphotic angle were measured at diagnosis and 6 months after diagnosis. Fracture non-union and subsequent vertebral fracture were evaluated.RESULTS:
TPD treatment showed inferior pain relief to vertebroplasty group at 1 month, but did not show difference at 3 and 6 months after diagnosis. In TPD cases, progression of vertebral body collapse was noted in terms of middle body height and wedge angle at final follow up. Instead, both middle body height and wedge angle increased significantly after operation in the vertebroplasty group. Fracture non-union was confirmed via MRI and 4 TPD patients were diagnosed with non-union (4/30, 13.3%). Subsequent compression fracture within 6 months was significant higher in vertebroplasty group (12/60, 20%) than in TPD group (1/30, 3.3%).CONCLUSION:
In acute OVCFs, 3-month TPD treatment alone showed comparable pain improvement and less subsequent spine fracture than vertebroplasty.Palabras clave
