Methods: A sample of 62 elderly OVCF patients was selected. The admission time was from June 2022 to June 2023. They were randomly divided into a study group (n = 31) and a control group (n = 31) using computer software lottery method. Patients in the control group were treated with PKP, while patients in the study group were treated with hyperextension reduction combined with PVP. The operation time, hospitalization time, the number of fluoroscopy, treatment costs, visual analog pain score (VAS), vertebral body height, and Cobb angle of the injured vertebra were compared between the two groups. Results: The operation time, hospitalization time, number of fluoroscopy, and treatment costs of the patients in the study group were all lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The VAS scores of the two groups after surgery were lower than those before surgery, and there was no significant difference between the groups (P > 0.05). After surgery, the vertebral body heights in both groups were more significant than before surgery, and the Cobb angle of the injured vertebra was smaller than before surgery. There was no significant difference between the groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion: PKP and hyperextension reduction combined with PVP treatment in elderly patients with OVCF can relieve pain and restore vertebral body height and Cobb angle. However, hyperextension reduction combined with PVP treatment can shorten the operation time and hospitalization time, with low treatment cost, which has the potential value to be widely applied.
