A 69-year-old man visited multidisciplinary pain center as an out-patient, complaining of back pain (NRS 9) after trauma 15 days ago. The pain was exacerbated by position change and cough. Percussion tenderness was present at mid-thoracic level, but neurologic exam was normal. T-spine image revealed compression fracture at T6 and 7. Ultrasound-guided paravertebral block at right T7 level was performed in a prone position. The patient coughed during injection, and presented severe chest pain and shortness of breath. The patient was transferred to ER under doubt of pneumothorax. Initial vital sign at ER was BP 172/84mmHg, HR 155/min. Chest X-ray revealed tension pneumothorax at right upper lung field. 16G needle was inserted Right 5~6th rib and simultaneously thoracic surgeon was called. After needle insertion, chest pain and shortness of breath were improved and vital sign was improved to BP 136/68mmHg, HR 92/min. Atelectasis of right lung was improved after chest tube drainage by thoracic surgeon. After admission, osteoporotic compression fracture was diagnosed based on MRI and DXA finding. The patient presented worsened back pain (NRS 10) and epidural steroid injection at T6-7 had no effectiveness. Percutaneous balloon kyphoplasty was done at T6 and T7 using extrapedicular approach. After kyphoplasty, back pain was improved to NRS 2/10, and no other complication was seen. Eight days after, chest tube was removed after confirmation of no drainage. The patient was discharged the next day. After 2 weeks, patient visited multidisciplinary pain center, no pain remained and CXR was normal.
