Background: This study evaluated the clinical effects of the use of a temporary bi-frame fixator in conjunction with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) for treating AO/OTA 41B3 and 41C tibial plateau fractures (TPFs).
Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of 30 patients with TPFs affected by vertical compression seen from October 2019 to October 2020. All patients were treated with a bi-frame fixator to correct the vertical shortening deformity, with the MIPPO technique used after reduction.

Aim: This study is aims to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) and percutaneous pedicle screw fixation (PPSF) in managing osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) among middle-aged and elderly individuals.
Methods: A total of 142 patients aged 55-65 years were selected retrospectively from the Department of Orthopedics of our hospital from June 2021 to June 2023 and classified into PKP (n = 68) and PPSF (n = 74) groups. General data of patients were collected, and related perioperative indicators, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scores, changes in Cobb angle of the fractured vertebrae, vertebral compression rate, as well as postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.
