What this Trial Is About
This research aims to compare two surgical methods for patients with osteoporotic spines who need posterior instrumentation. It focuses on evaluating bone-cement-augmented transpedicular screw fixation versus cannulated pedicle screw fixation. The study examines implant stability, pain relief, functional recovery, and complication rates, addressing challenges caused by weak bone density that can lead to screw loosening and fixation failure. Participants will receive either bone cement augmented transpedicular screw fixation or cannulated pedicle screw fixation as part of their treatment. These procedures are designed to improve implant stability in weakened bones, with the cannulated screws allowing cement to flow through and reinforce the fixation. The treatments will be assigned randomly to compare their effects. During the study, researchers will monitor participants for wound infections six months after the procedure, along with other complication rates. The study involves clinical and radiological assessments to evaluate outcomes related to screw stability and recovery. Participants can expect follow-up visits and evaluations over a six-month period to track their progress and safety.
