| Abstract |
We investigated the importance, risk factors, and clinical course of the radiolucent "halo" phenomenon around bone cement following vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic compression fracture. Preoperative osteonecrosis and a lump cement pattern were the most important risk factors for the peri-cement halo phenomenon, and it was associated with vertebral recollapse. |
