The influence of sintering of osteoporotic vertebral fractures on the sagittal lumbar profile and degenerative changes

Progressive sintering of osteoporotic fractures in the thoracolumbar junction accentuates lordosis in underlying segments, potentially exacerbating degenerative changes and symptomatic manifestations. Thus, prioritizing interventions aimed at preventing progressive sintering and restoring sagittal balance is paramount in optimizing treatment outcomes for affected individuals.
