Table 5.

Cement leakage outside vertebra

Location DND group (n = 30) Non-DND group (n = 214) P value
Epidural vein—no. (%) 0 (0) 3 (1.4) 0.67
Perivertebral soft tissue—no. (%) 0 (0) 11 (5.1) 0.23
Intravertebral disk space—no. (%) 3 (10) 39 (18.2) 0.49
Lung—no. (%) 0 (0) 0 (0)
Total—no. (%) 3 (10) 53 (24.8) 0.07

Between both groups, comparisons for occurrence rates of cement leakage were analysed with Fisher’s exact test and Chi-square test
