 The present study evaluated prognostic factors for osteoporotic vertebral fractures. Forty-four patients, 12 men and 32 women, with 50 osteoporotic vertebral fractures were enrolled in the study. The average patient age at the time of injury was 73.3 years. Bony union was obtained in 38 cases, and pseudarthrosis was observed in 12 cases. In each group, the cause of the fracture, the fracture level, and imaging characteristics(including MR images)were evaluated. In the pseudoarthrosis group, the trauma that induced the fracture tended to be much less severe than that in the bone-union group. The ratio of vertebral collapse was not a factor inducing non-union, but injury of the posterior wall of the body may be a factor causing non-union. Large low-intensity changes both on T1-and T2-weighted images suggesting acute hematoma within the vertebral body may be a predictor of pseudoarthrosis following osteoporotic vertebral fracture.
