Comparative Study[A comparison of results between percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy and fenestration discectomy for lumbar disc herniation in the adolscents].
To compare the preliminary clinical outcomes of percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy (PTED) and fenestration discectomy (FD) for lumbar disc herniation in the adolscents and further to summarize the clinical experience. ⋯ The preliminary clinical efficacy of both PTED and FD in the treatment of single segment lumbar disc herniation in the adolscents is satisfactory. However, PTED is a better minimally invasive surgical method with such advantages as less trauma, less blood loss, early function recovery, less effect on lumbar spinal stability and so on. The short-term outcomes of PTED are similar to that of FD.

Comparative Study[Vertebroplasty compared with conservative method of integrated Chinese and Western Medicine in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures].
To compare the effects of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) versus conservative method of integrated Chinese and Western Medicine for pain relief and functional outcome in patients with painful osteoporotic vertebral fractures. New fractures and secondary adverse effects were also analyzed during a mid-long term follow-up period. ⋯ PVP has immediate pain relief and functional improvement compared with conservative treatment. PVP should be considered as the treatment of first choice for symptomatic osteoporotic vertebral fractures. However, for patients with VAS < 5, conservative method of integrated Chinese and Western Medicine may perform well.
