Abstract

Background: osteoporosis is a common morbidity characterized by a systemic impairment of bone mass and microarchitecture that results in bone fragility fractures leading to decreased quality of life.

Methods: This study was conducted upon 30 adult patients with osteoporotic spine subjected to bone cement augmentation in the department of Neurosurgery, Tanta University Hospitals between January 2020 and January 2021.

Results: Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) ranged from 64-85 with mean 78±18.8 before surgery and 21-44 after surgery with mean 33±15.6. Visual Analog Scale for Pain (VAS) ranged from 7-9 pre-operatively with a mean value 8.2±1.8 and from 1-3 post-operatively with a mean value 2.3±1.6.
