Résumé
Objective
This study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of the robot-assisted trans-costotransverse joint approach and transpedicular approach in the treatment of upper thoracic single-segment osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs).
Methods
The data of 60 patients who underwent robot-assisted percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) from October 2023 to January 2025 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different surgical approaches, they were divided into two groups: trans-costotransverse joint group (Group A n = 30) and transpedicular group (Group B n = 30). Perioperative indicators and clinical outcomes were compared.
