Background And Importance: En bloc resection of sacral tumors is the most effective treatment to help prevent recurrence. Sacrectomy, however, can be destabilizing, depending on the extent of resection. Various surgical techniques for improving stability and enabling early ambulation have been proposed.
Clinical Presentation: Here, we report a case in which we use PMMA (poly[methyl methacrylate]) to augment pelvic instrumentation to improve mechanical stability after sacrectomy for en bloc resection of a solitary fibrous tumor.
Conclusion: We highlight the use of sacroplasty augmentation of pelvic ring reconstruction to provide biomechanical stability without the need for fusion of any mobile spine segments, which allowed for early patient ambulation and no appreciable loss of range of motion or mobility.

Department of Medical Imaging, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan; Department of Medical Imaging, National Taiwan University Cancer Center, Taipei, Taiwan.
Background And Purpose: Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) pulmonary angiography can reliably detect cement pulmonary embolisms (CPEs) and parenchymal perfusion defects. This prospective observational study investigated CPEs in asymptomatic patients using DECT.
Methods: We enrolled 42 patients who underwent vertebroplasty or received cement screws for vertebral augmentation, examining them using spinal computed tomography and DECT pulmonary angiography.

: The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of vertebral refractures following percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) and to explore risk factors for augmented vertebral refractures, thereby assisting spinal surgeons in clinical practice. : We analyzed the records of 495 patients with single-segment osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) who were treated with single-entry PKP at our institution from March 2016 to August 2022. Univariate analysis, binary logistic regression, and ROC curve analysis were performed to determine potential risk factors, independent risk factors, and discrimination ability.

Radiation Exposure Analysis on 274 Patients With Vertebral Augmentation Using the Surgivisio Intraoperative Navigation System.

Service de chirurgie orthopédique et traumatologique, Université Grenoble Alpes, center hospitalier universitaire de Grenoble, La Tronche, France.
Background: Surgeons' reliance on intraoperative fluoroscopy during vertebroplasty procedures has raised concerns regarding the level of patient and surgeon radiation. Navigation systems have shown a potential to reduce the overall patient and medical staff exposure during dose exposure studies. The main objective of this study was to determine whether the Surgivisio platform (eCential Robotics, France), a unified imaging and navigation platform, lowers the patient dose during routine clinical usage as compared with published fluoroscopy and other navigation options that are published in the literature.

Osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs) in elderly patients pose challenges due to bone destruction and surgical risks. This case report describes a minimally invasive approach using calcium phosphate cement (CPC) vertebroplasty and short fusion with cement augmentation of pedicle screws (CAPS) in a 91-year-old woman with severe OVF. The patient underwent CPC vertebroplasty at L1 and CAPS fixation at T12-L2, followed by osteoporosis medication.
