We propose that neural decompression of the spinal cord is not always necessary for the treatment of neurological impairment in patients with osteoporotic vertebral collapse with dynamic mobility. Dynamic magnetic resonance imaging is a valuable tool to make an accurate diagnosis and determine precise surgical plan and improving the surgical strategy of OVCF.
