This study aims to compare the cement volume delivered during VP and KP with the volumes calculated on postoperative radiological images to assess their level of compatibility and reflection for the actual quantity of cement. Method: In a single-center, retrospective observational study, clinical data and radiological images of a total of 49 patients, among whom 28 and 21 underwent VP and KP, respectively, for a total of 67 vertebral levels, were examined. The median age (interquartile range) was 70 (17) years; 39 (79.6%) patients were females and 10 (20.4%) patients were males. Data were analyzed and differences in the volumes were assessed. Results: For the overall volume, there was no statistically significant difference (One sample t-test, p > 0.05). The KP interventions had a significantly higher mean volume difference when compared to the VP interventions (Two samples t-test, p < 0.01, d = 0.785). Conclusion: Our results showed consistency in the overall volumes of cement; however, KP interventions had a significantly higher mean volume difference.en10.4274/iksstd.2021.79553info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArticle133170176488409
