Comparison of radiological parameters in VBS and vertbroplasty patients

VBS Vertebroplasty p value
Total applied cement (cm³) 7.33 (1.4) 2.7 (1.2) <0.001
Leakage volume (cm³) 0.28 (0.2) 0.15 (0.3) 0.129
Hp improvement 2.2 (2.7) 0.3 (2.6) <0.001
Hm improvement 7.3 (4.1) 1.3 (3.9) <0.001
Ha improvement 3.6 (3.8) 0.3 (3.7) <0.001
Improvement all vertebral heights (Ha, Hm, Hp) 4.024 (2.925) 0.642 (2.868) <0.001
Segmental kyphosis improvement 2.826 (4.850) 1.540 (8.639) 0.378
Vertebral kyphosis improvement 0.964 (8.548) 1.978 (4.731) 0.042

Data are expressed in mean (SD). p value demonstrates the difference between these two techniques
