Article Synopsis
- Vertebral compression fractures (VCF) often occur at the thoracolumbar junction (TLJ), and balloon kyphoplasty (BKP) is an effective treatment for bone remodeling in these cases.*
-
- A study involving 31 patients evaluated how factors like timing of surgery, age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) affect outcomes such as vertebral height and spinal angles after BKP.*
-
- Results show that early surgery leads to better recovery in vertebral heights, older patients experience more significant angle reduction, and those with a higher BMI have lower local kyphotic angles post-surgery.*
