So Does Vertebroplasty Work Or Not?
Just read a recent study that came out in BMJ that showed no statistical difference between Vertebroplasty and Sham:
Vertebroplasty versus sham procedure for painful acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (VERTOS IV): randomised sham controlled clinical trial
In the past decade, there are now 2 large RCTs that are yay for Vertebroplasty, and now 3 that are nay...
Your thoughts?
