1、SURGICAL TREATMENT OF SPINE OSTEOPOROSISConcept of Osteoporosis A systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue, with a consequent increase in bone fragility and a susceptibility to fracture. the above definition developedin Hong Kong in
2、 1993 Pathophysiology of OPBone Remodeling Imbalance of bone remodeling, In pathologic situations, bone mass may be sacrificed to satisfy the bodys intra- and extracellular calcium needs. A specific quantity of bone is resorbed from the remodeling site and then a reversal occurs and the cavity is oc

5、bone may account for less than 25% of the total bone mass in healthy adults, its surface area far exceeds that of cortical bone. Bone Loss: Cancellous vs. Cortical BoneCancellous bone is more metabolically active than cortical bone. If bone remodeling becomes uncoupled, with osteoclastic activity ex
6、ceeding osteoblastic activity, the mass and structural integrity of cancellous bone is more severely affected than cortical bone. Bone Loss: Cancellous vs. Cortical BoneDuring the accelerated period of bone loss occurring immediately post-menopause, cancellous bone loss is increased 3-fold, while ra
7、tes of cortical bone loss are slower. Therefore, fractures related to osteoporosis most commonly occur in areas rich in cancellous bone (ie, the vertebrae and wrist), and BMD measurements have focused on these critical anatomic siteshigh turnover with either increased formation or increased resorpti
8、on or both Patterns of Age-Related Bone LossGradual bone loss begins in both men and women between the age 30 and 40, paralleling an age-related decline in muscle mass. menopause women begin a period of accelerated bone loss, averaging from 2%-5% per year over the next ten years. Estrogen-Related Bo

10、ausal bone loss. This period of accelerated bone loss, coupled with the lower average BMD in women compared to men, explains the higher incidence of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures in womenVertebrae and Cancellous BoneThe vertebrae have a high percentage of cancellous bone. Therefore, verteb
11、ral fractures are the most common fracture site in the early menopausal years;Hip fractures tend to occur in later life. The degree of bone loss may vary from site to site in the same individual. Menopausal Bone LossMenopausal bone loss can vary among women from 2%-5% per year. Higher rates of bone
12、loss have been classified as fast losers. It is thought that this category of women (about 5%-10% of all menopausal women) may be at higher risk for fractures; NFO Recommendations for BMD Testing All postmenopausal women under age 65 who have one or more additional risk factors for osteoporosis(besi

In fact, the threat of physical deformity may be

Vertebroplastyand Kyphoplasty A new technique of Minimal Invasive Spinal Surgery Carry out in China from 2001Vertebroplasty-
25、Minimal Invasive Treatment of Compression FrxVertebroplasty literally means fixing the vertebral body. A metal needle is passed into the vertebral body and a cement mixture containing polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), barium powder, tobramycin, and a solvent are injected under imaging guidance by the p

The barium makes the cement visible on x-ray and the tobramycin is an antibiotic. Risks of Procedure1). Leakage of cement into veins and or lungs2). Infection 3).
