Abstract
With increasing population aging, osteoporosis vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs), resulting in severe back pain and functional impairment, have become progressively common. Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) as minimally invasive procedures have revolutionized OVCFs treatment. However, PVP- and PKP-related complications, such as symptomatic cement leakage and adjacent vertebral fractures, continue to plague physicians. Consequently, progressively more implants for OVCFs have been developed recently to overcome the shortcomings of traditional procedures. Therefore, we conducted a literature review on several new implants for OVCFs, including StaXx FX, Vertebral Body Stenting, Vesselplasty, Sky Bone Expander, Kiva, Spine Jack, Osseofix, Optimesh, Jack, and V-strut. Additionally, this review highlights the individualized applications of these implants for OVCFs. Nevertheless, current clinical studies on these innovative implants remain limited. Future prospective, randomized, and controlled studies are needed to elucidate the effectiveness and indications of these new implants for OVCFs.
