Cement-augmented pedicle screws (CAPS) have been specifically designed for elderly patients with osteoporotic spines. Herein, we investigated the feasibility of CAPS applied in elderly patients with spinal tuberculosis and severe osteoporosis.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>We retrospectively analyzed data of patients with spinal tuberculosis and severe osteoporosis between January 2017 and January 2021. Surgical data, including surgical duration and intraoperative blood loss, were recorded. Radiological parameters, such as correction of regional kyphotic angle and screw loosening, were also evaluated. Additionally, visual analog scores (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were used to evaluate back pain and functional recovery, respectively. Erythrocyte sedimentation (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations were detected to assess tuberculosis activity. The presence of complications and fusion rate was also assessed.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A total of 15 patients were included in this study.

The correction of regional kyphotic angle was 12.4\u00b0\u2009\u00b1\u200915.0\u00b0, and it was well maintained until the final follow-up. The mean VAS decreased from 6.0\u2009\u00b1\u20091.2 points to 0.5\u2009\u00b1\u20090.6 points, and ODI reduced from 37.8%\u2009\u00b1\u20097.6% to 8.3%\u2009\u00b1\u20092.8% (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.01). At the final follow-up, ESR and CRP levels were within normal range. Bony fusion occurred in all patients, with an average fusion duration of 8.8\u2009\u00b1\u20091.5\u00a0months. No cases of pedicle screw pullout, screw loosening, or pseudoarthrosis occurred.
