INTRODUCTION: Surgical treatment of osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) often involves older patients with various comorbidities; thus, attending physicians must pay special attention to the invasiveness of surgical procedures and possible perioperative complications. In this retrospective observational study, we investigated the relationship between OVF and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) by examining the clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes.
METHODS: Subjects comprised 26 patients (14 men, 12 women) who underwent surgical treatment for OVF complicated by DISH. Vertebral injuries affected the thoracolumbar transitional vertebrae in 18 patients and the middle and lower lumbar vertebrae in eight patients. The clinical characteristics, surgical results, radiological assessments, and outcomes were evaluated on the basis of the levels of affected vertebrae and whether anterior column reconstruction (ACR) was performed.
RESULTS: Visual Analog Scale (VAS) measurements improved from an average of 69.7 mm before surgery to 21.3 mm after surgery. 14 patients had neurological deficits, who exhibited improvements by one or more steps on the Frankel scale after surgery. Activities of daily living (ADLs) were maintained during the six-month period following surgery in 23 patients. Comorbidity was observed in 22 patients. 14 patients had perioperative complications, and six required additional surgery. Both operating time and blood loss volume were significantly higher in patients in the middle and lower lumbar vertebrae and ACR groups. Postoperative correction loss was also significantly lower in the ACR group.
CONCLUSIONS: Favorable degrees of improvement in neurological deficits and VAS were observed following surgery in patients with OVF complicated by DISH, and postoperative ADLs were maintained in 92% of the patients. Elderly men frequently presented with comorbidities, and the frequencies of patients with perioperative complications and those requiring additional surgery were high.
