This study aimed to compare the demographic features (including total cost), surgical effects, radiographic parameters, and complications of kyphoplasty (KP) and vertebroplasty (VP) in the hyperextension (HP) and neutral positions (NP) and to assess their efficacy and cost-effectiveness for treating single-level osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF).
