Forearm bone mineral density as a predictor of adjacent vertebral refracture after percutaneous kyphoplasty in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture: a retrospective analysis

Abstract Background The incidence of adjacent vertebral body re-fracture after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) is associated with a number of variables, of which decreased bone mineral density is one of the major risk factors. Forearm bone mineral density (BMD) measurements are gaining attention beca...
