RESULTS:: Mean age of patients was 75,3 years (standard deviation, SD = 7,1 years); 4,1% were male. HRQoL of patient treated with TPTD improved from 0.36 to 0.58 EQ-5D score. The mean VAS improved (from 5.42 to 3.47), OR (2.021 to 1.695). In 80% of the patients a reduction of pain was observed as well as a reduction of fracture.
