Lumbar Nerve Root Compression due to Leakage of Bone Cement after Vertebroplasty

We experienced a 73-year-old male with lumbar nerve root compression due to leakage of bone cement after vertebroplasty. He was underwent vertebroplasty for acute osteoporotic L4 compression fracture at our hospital. After vertebroplasty, his back pain was improved but right leg pain was newly devel...

description We experienced a 73-year-old male with lumbar nerve root compression due to leakage of bone cement after vertebroplasty. He was underwent vertebroplasty for acute osteoporotic L4 compression fracture at our hospital. After vertebroplasty, his back pain was improved but right leg pain was newly developed. Lumbar computed tomography scanning showed that bone cements were leaked along the L4 nerve root. The leaked cements around L4 nerve root were removed carefully via paraspinal muscle-splitting approach. After operation, severe right leg radiating pain was improved. We recommend proper entry point, high viscosity of polymethylmethacrylate and constant monitoring can reduce complication.
