2 Original Article J Korean Soc Spine Surg Dec;24(4): in Patients with Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures Sung Lim You, M.D., Young Do Koh, M.D., Shin Woo Choi, M.D. Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Ewha Womans University School of Medicine, Seoul, Korea Study Design: A retrospective study. Objectives: To investigate the risk factors associated with new compression fractures in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. Summary of Literature Review: Previous studies have reported that a history of osteoporotic vertebral fractures and decreased bone mineral density were risk factors for new compression fractures. It is not certain whether vertebroplasty is a risk factor for new compression vertebral fractures. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included a total of 52 patients who were diagnosed with an osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture and could be followed up for at least 1 year. Age, sex, bone mineral density, body mass index, osteoporosis treatment, fat infiltration of the back muscles, the sagittal index, vertebroplasty, and underlying diabetes mellitus or hypertension were compared between patients who developed new compression fractures during 1 year of follow-up and those who did not. For statistical analysis, the t-test and chi-square test were used to analyze the relationship of each factor with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture incidence, and multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze multifactorial explanatory factors. Results: No significant differences were found between the 2 groups regarding sex, underlying disease, the sagittal index, and fat infiltration of the back muscles. Patients who developed a new compression fracture were significantly older (p=0.011), had a lower body mass index (p=0.001), had lower bone mineral density (p=0.008), and were more likely to have taken osteoporosis medication for less than 6 months (including no medication, p=0.019). The logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of developing new compression fractures was significantly elevated in patients with a low body mass index (odds ratio [OR]=0.69, p=0.02), bone mineral density (OR=0.43, p=0.005), and less than 6 months of osteoporosis medication use (including no medication, OR=1.083, p=0.041). Conclusions: The risk of developing new compression fractures in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures was associated with body mass index, bone mineral density, and having taken osteoporosis medication for less than 6 months.

5 Sung Lim You et al Volume 24 Number 4 December (p=0.628). 성별과연령을보정한로지스틱회귀분석에서는골밀도 (BMD) 및체질량지수 (BMI) 의 odds ratio는각각 0.43, 0.69 였고, 이는모두통계적으로유의하였다 (p=0.005, p=0.02). 또한, 6개월을기준으로한골다공증약물치료여부의 odds ratio 는 이었고, 이는통계적으로유의하였다 (p=0.041). 척추성형술을시행받은군은그렇지않은군에비해 odds ratio 가 배로측정되었으나, 이는통계적으로유의하지않았다 (p=0.07) (Table 2). 고찰 일생중여성은 40~50%, 남성은 10~20% 정도에서골다공증성골절을경험하며, 일년이내에 20~30% 정도재골절이발생하게된다는보고가있다. 1,12,13) 또한, Lindsay 등은폐경후여성 2725명을대상으로일년동안추시한결과를분석하여, 골다공증성척추골절진단된환자에서일년내에 6.6% 에서재골절이일어나며, 한개이상의척추골절이있는환자는그렇지않은환자에비해척추골절이발생할위험이약 5.1배높다고보고하였다. 5) 이후 Ross 등은 380명의폐경후여성을 2.9 년간추시한결과, 하나이상의척추골절이있는경우그렇지않은환자에비해척추재골절이발생할위험이 7.4배증가하였고, 골밀도 (BMD) 가 2 표준편차감소하면골절위험이 5.8배증가한다고보고하였다. 6) 위에서언급된 Lindsay 등의연구는골밀도 (BMD) 를교정하여도한개이상의척추골절자체가재골절의위험인자라는역학적결과를보고하였지만, 재골절을일으키는원인에대해서는분석하지않았으며, Ross 등의연구에서도골밀도 (BMD) 및이전의척추골절이척추재골절발생의위험인자라는것을보고하였지만, 그외의위험인자에대해서는분석하지않았다. 따라서본연구는척추골절후재골절이발생한환자들을후향적으로분석하여척추재골절발생의위험인자를찾고자하였다. 골다공증성골절에서재골절발생이많은것은골다공증이전신적인질환으로골의질량감소및미세구조가변하기때문이다. 13) 임상적으로골다공증은 DEXA를이용한골밀도 (BMD) 를측정하여진단하게되며, 골밀도 (BMD) 가낮을수록골절뿐만아니라재골절의가능성역시높을것임을예측할수있다. Ross 등 6,14) 과 Lindsay 등 5) 도척추재골절의위험인자로서골밀도 (BMD) 및이전에진단된하나이상의척추골절로보고하였다. 본연구의결과도일년이내에척추재골절이발생한군의골밀도 (BMD) 가재골절이발생하지않은군에비해통계적으로유의하게낮았으며, 연령과성별을보정한로지스틱회귀 분석에서 T-score 가 1 단위증가할때마다재골절의 odds ratio 가 0.43배감소하는것으로분석되었다. 본연구에서두군의골밀도 (BMD) 는 T-score가 -2.5 미만이고, 골다공증성골절이있으므로두군모두심한골다공증 (severe osteoporosis) 으로진단할수있지만, 재골절의발생위험은같지않았다. 즉, 심한골다공증 (severe osteoporosis) 의진단기준을만족한환자들안에서도 T-score 가더낮을수록재골절의위험이증가하므로, 이를치료방법의선택및예후예측에고려하여야함을의미한다. Bisphosphonate 제제중하나인 Risedronate 의경우치료시작후 6개월부터골밀도증가가나타나므로 15), 6개월을기준으로골다공증약물투여력이없거나, 골다공증약물투여 6개월미만인군과치료기간이 6개월이상인군으로나누어재골절발생의차이를분석하였다. 골다공증약물을복용하지않거나 6개월미만복용한환자들은통계적으로유의하게재골절이많았다 (p=0.019). 이는이전의연구와같은결과이며, 골다공증약물을 6개월이상복용하면골밀도 (BMD) 증가효과가있으므로재골절을유의하게감소시켰을것으로생각된다. Ha 등 16) 은보존적치료를시행한골다공증성척추골절환자 84예를분석하여, 골다공증성척추골절후국소후만각이증가하고척추체내공기음영이발생하는진행성골다공증성척추골절의위험인자로체질량지수 (BMI>23) 를언급하였으며, Kim 등 17) 은폐경후여성 414명을분석하여골다공증성척추골절환자들은골다공증성비척추골절과는달리체중과체질량지수 (BMI) 가더높다고보고하였다. Tanaka 등 18) 은골다공증성척추골절에서비척추골절과는달리과체중및높은체질량지수 (BMI) 가척추골절의발생을증가시킨다고보고하였으며, Pirro 등 19) 은체질량지수 (BMI) 가증가할수록다발성척추골절의위험이증가한다고보고하였다. 높은체질량지수 (BMI) 가척추골절발생위험을증가시키는원인으로서, Finkelstein 등 20) 은체질량지수 (BMI) 가증가하면축성부하가증가하고신체운동성이감소하여수상가능성이높아지며, 당뇨병및대사증후군의동반가능성이높아져골절의위험이증가된다고하였다. 그러나체중및체질량지수 (BMI) 와골다공증성척추골절과의상관관계는아직명확하지않다. 많은연구들이있지만, 골다공증성골절에대해 De Laet 등 21) 이메타분석한결과, 저체중과낮은체질량지수 (BMI) 는골다공증성골절의위험인자라고분석하였다. 즉, 체중이증가하면골밀도 (BMD) 가증가하므로골절의보호인자로작용한다는것이다. 본연구에서도연령과성별을보정한로지스틱회귀분석을한결과, 체질량지수 (BMI) 가 1 kg/m 2 증가할수록척추재골절의위험은 0.69배감소하였다. 이는높은체질량지수 (BMI) 가의미하는축성부하증가, 당뇨병및대사증후군의동반보다낮은체질량지수 206

(BMI) 가의미하는골밀도 (BMD) 의감소가척추재골절발생의위험과더관련이있음을나타낸다. 또한, 본연구에서다른변수인당뇨및고혈압과같은동반질환의유무가재골절발생의위험과유의한연관이없는것으로나타난것도위의내용을뒷바침한다. 최근척추압박골절에대한치료로서조기통증조절및거동을위해척추성형술이많이시술되고있다. 그러나해당추체의압박골절이진행하여국소후만각이증가하고, 인접분절에재골절이발생하는것을보고하며, 사용하는 PMMA 시멘트의탄성계수및강도가인체의골과다르기때문에발생하는생역동학적인문제를제기하였다. 22,23) 또한, Rohlmann 등 24) 은 PMMA 골시멘트를해당추체에주입할때인접추간판의압력이증가되고, 이로인해인접추체로증가된응력이전달되면서재골절이발생한다고하였다. 그러나 Kayanja 등 25) 은생역학적연구를통해골다공증성척추압박골절에서인접한척추에재골절이발생하는것은골밀도감소에의한자연적경과이고, PMMA 골시멘트에의해인접분절로전달되는하중이증가하기때문이아니라고하였다. 또한, Klazen 등 26) 은골다공증성척추골절환자 202명을대상으로전향적비교-대조군연구 (prospective randomized controlled study) 를시행한결과척추성형술은인접부위새로운척추골절의위험인자가아니라고하였다. 본연구에서는척추성형술을시행한군에서재골절이유의하게많았으나 (p=0.004), 연령과성별을보정한로지스틱회귀분석에서는통계적으로유의하지않아 (p=0.07), 추가적으 로환자들을척추성형술을받은군과받지않은군으로나누어분석을하였다. 그결과척추성형술을받은군에서통계적으로유의하게연령이높았고, 골밀도 (BMD) 가낮았으며, 시상지수가높았다 (Table 3). 즉, 보존적치료에도불구하고통증이 6주이상지속되는환자들을대상으로척추성형술을시행하였고, 이들은상대적으로고령, 낮은골밀도 (BMD), 높은시상지수를보였으며, 이중에서고령및낮은골밀도 (BMD) 는재골절의위험인자에해당하므로척추성형술을시행받은군에서재골절이많은결과가나왔을것으로생각된다. 또한, 척추성형술후인접부위 (adjacent level) 에서재골절이발생할 odd ratio 가통계적으로유의하지않았으며 (p=0.741), 주입한 PMMA 골시멘트의양도척추성형술후재골절이발생한군과재골절이발생하지않은군간의유의한차이가없었다 (p=0.628). 따라서, 척추성형술을재골절의위험인자로볼수없으며, 이는로지스틱회귀분석에서척추성형술여부가통계적으로유의하지않음으로써확인할수있다. Farcy 등 11) 은흉요추부골절에서시상지수 (sagittal index) 가 15도이상이면후만변형의가능성이높다고하였으며, Ha 등 27) 은골다공증성척추골절에서초기에압박률이 15% 이상증가하면척추압박이진행할위험이높아진다고하였다. 압박률의증가나후만변형의발생은척추의생역학적변화를유발하므로, 저자들은이런변화가재골절을유발시킬가능성을분석하기위해수상당시시상지수 (sagittal index) 를측정하여재골절과의연관성을분석하였으나, 두군간유의한차이는없었다 207

7 Sung Lim You et al Volume 24 Number 4 December (p=0.947). Sinaki 등 28,29) 은폐경후여성 50명을대상으로 10년동안추시한결과를분석하여, 후방신전근운동을통해근력을강화시킨군은그렇지않은군에비해척추골절위험이 2.7배감소한결과를보고하였고, 후방신전근의근력약화는후만변형과연관성이있음을발표하였다. 따라서저자들은후방신전근의위축을 Goutallier 등 10) 의방법으로평가하여, 두군간척추의생역학적차이에따라재골절발생의차이가있는지분석하였으나유의한차이는없었다 (p=0.919). 본연구는후향적연구로서두군이동일한조건에서진행된것이아니라는한계점이있다. 또한, 연구대상이 52명으로비교적적은수이고, 척추성형술을총 35명 (67.3%) 이시행받았으며, 두군간연령차이가존재하는점등은본연구결과를일반화하기에는한계점으로지적된다. 따라서추후더많은환자를대상으로한전향적연구가필요할것으로생각된다. 결론 골다공증성척추골절환자에서고령, 낮은골밀도 (BMD) 및체질량지수 (BMI), 골다공증치료기간이 6개월미만인경우는재골절의가능성이높음을의미하므로보다세심한추시관찰이필요할것으로생각된다.

9 Original Article J Korean Soc Spine Surg Dec;24(4): 골다공증성척추압박골절환자에서새로운척추골절발생의위험인자 유성림 고영도 최신우이화여자대학교의과대학정형외과학교실연구계획 : 골다공증성척추골절환자에대해보조기를이용하여보존적으로치료후추시결과에대한후향적연구이다. 목적 : 골다공증성척추골절환자에서재골절발생의위험인자를알아보고자한다. 선행문헌의요약 : 이전에골다공증성척추골절이진단된경우, 낮은골밀도 (BMD) 는재골절위험을높인다는연구결과가있으며, 척추성형술이재골절의위험인자인지에대해서는논란이있다. 대상및방법 : 본원에서골다공증성척추골절진단받고최소 1년이상추시가능했던환자 52명을대상으로후향적연구를진행하였다. 골다공증성척추골절진단후추시에서일년이내에재골절이있었던군과재골절이발생하지않은군간의연령, 성별, 체질량지수 (BMI), 골밀도 (BMD), 고혈압, 당뇨병과같은기저질환유무, 후방신전근위축정도, 척추성형술시행여부, 골다공증치료여부, 시상지수 (sagittal index) 를비교하였다. 두군사이에위에서제시한요소들을분석하기위해독립표본 T-test, Chi-square test를이용하여검증하였다. 또한, 나이및성별을보정한후각요소들을분석하기위해로지스틱회귀분석을하였다. 결과 : 평균연령은재골절이발생한군은 81.3세로, 재골절이발생하지않은군의 74세보다높았으며, 이는통계적으로유의하였다 (p=0.011). 재골절이발생한군은골밀도 (BMD) 가 T-score -4.23, 체질량지수 (BMI) 는 kg/m 2 였고, 재골절이발생하지않은군은골밀도 (BMD) 가 T-score -3.28, 체질량지수 (BMI) 는 kg/m 2 였으며, 이는모두통계적으로유의한차이가있었다 (p=0.008, p=0.001). 또한, 골다공증약물치료를받지않거나 6개월미만으로치료받은군은 6개월이상치료받은군에비해통계적으로유의하게재골절이많았다 (p=0.019). 성별과연령을보정한로지스틱회귀분석에서는골밀도 (BMD) 및체질량지수 (BMI) 의 odds ratio 는각각 0.43, 0.69였고, 이는모두통계적으로유의하였다 (p=0.005, p=0.02). 6개월을기준으로한골다공증약물치료여부의 odds ratio 는 이었고, 이는통계적으로유의하였다 (p=0.041). 결론 : 골다공증성척추골절환자에서고령, 낮은골밀도 (BMD) 및체질량지수 (BMI), 6개월미만의약물치료는재골절의가능성이높으므로보다세심한추시관찰이필요하다. 색인단어 : 흉요추부, 골다공증, 척추압박골절, 재골절, 위험인자 약칭제목 : 척추재골절발생의위험인자 접수일 : 2017년 2월 21일 수정일 : 2017년 2월 28일 게재확정일 : 2017년 9월 16일 교신저자 : 고영도 서울시양천구안양천로 1071 이화여자대학교목동병원정형외과학교실 TEL: FAX: ydkoh@ewha.ac.kr 210 Copyright 2017 Korean Society of Spine Surgery Journal of Korean Society of Spine Surgery. pissn eissn This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial License ( which permits unrestricted non-commercial use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
