Department of Orthopedics, National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China.
Objective: Pulmonary cement embolism is a rare but underestimated complication of vertebroplasty due to the relative lack of study and examination. This study aims to investigate the incidence of pulmonary cement embolism in patients with spinal metastasis who undergo PVP with RFA and to analyze the relative risk factors.
Methods: A total of 47 patients were retrospectively included and classified into pulmonary cement embolism (PCE) group and non-pulmonary cement embolism (NPCE) group by comparing pre- and postoperative pulmonary CT scan images.

Article Synopsis
- Study found that pain improvement rates after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) can be high (49%-90%), but some patients still experience ongoing back pain.
- Objectives were to assess clinical and imaging outcomes of PKP based on whether it was done on the symptom-dominating or non-dominating side for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF).
- Results showed that while both surgical approaches improved pain and disability significantly, the symptom-dominating side (Group A) had better outcomes within the first 2 months post-surgery compared to the other side.
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has many advantages over open thoracic surgery. Safety and efficacy of VATS in children have been confirmed, and VATS should be a common surgery. VATS and single-lung ventilation (SLV) induce various chafiges of ventilation and perfusion.

Background: Spinal infections remain a challenge for clinicians because of their variable presentation and complicated course. Common management approaches include conservative administration of antibiotics or aggressive surgical debridement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous endoscopic debridement with dilute betadine solution irrigation (PEDI) for treating patients with lumbar infectious spondylitis.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and clinical outcome of reduction and pedicle screws fixation at the fracture level with the approach through para-vertebral muscles in treating thoraeolumbar fractures.
Methods: From January 2007 to March 2010,27 patients with thoracolumbar fractures were treated with posterior open reduction and internal fixation with the approach through para-vertebral muscles. There were 19 males and 8 females with the mean age of 36.
