Osteoporotic Vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) constitute a major health care problem in western countries, not only because of the high incidence of these lesions but also due to their direct and indirect negative consequences for patient health-related quality of life and the costs to the health care system. Compression fractures lead to a loss of height of the vertebral segment, and the resulting spinal deformity can lead to a decrease in pulmonary capacity, malnutrition, decreased mobility, and depression. Kyphosis secondary to osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures is associated with a 2 to 3 times greater incidence of death due to pulmonary causes.5,11,13,17
