Abstract

Objective: The objective of this study was to explore the effect of wearing brace after percutaneous vertebro plasty (PVP) on recovery of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF). Methods: A total of 191 patients with OVCF and receiving PVP surgery in our hospital from 2020.07 to 20221.08 were reviewed. Among them, 102 patients wearing brace after surgery were the brace group, and 89 patients without brace were the control group. The Oswestry disability index (ODI), visual analogue score (VAS) and the refractured rate of adjacent vertebra after PVP were compared between the two groups before operation and 1 and 6 months after operation. Results: There was no significant difference in preoperative VAS and ODI between the brace group and the control group. The VAS and ODI at 1 and 6 months after operation in the brace group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). There were 15 cases (14.71%) of adjacently vertebral refracture including 12 cases (11.76%) of single-segment vertebral fracture and 3 cases (2.94%) of multiply vertebral fracture in the brace group. In the control group, there were 24 cases (26.97%) of adjacently vertebral refracture including 17 cases (19.10%) of single-segment vertebral fracture and 7 cases (7.87%) of multiply vertebral fracture. There was significant difference in the refractured rate of adjacent vertebra after PVP between the two groups (c2=4.397, P=0.036). Conclusion: Wearing brace after PVP for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture can relieve pain and restore function of patients, and the refractured rate of adjacent vertebra after PVP is significantly lower than that of patients without brace. Therefore, wearing brace after PVP is not only important, but also necessary.
