Preoperative CT or MRI was utilized to ascertain the relative position of the bone osteodense zone within the vertebral body (specifically, whether this zone is situated in the upper one-third or one-quarter of the left or right sagittal plane). Considering the head and tail regions of the dense zone as puncture targets, the puncture points and paths were meticulously planned, and the working channel was subsequently established. Under continuous monitoring by a C-arm X-ray machine, bone cement was carefully and gradually injected. The operation time, bone cement injection volume, and bone cement leakage were recorded.

They were divided into the occurrence group (45 patients) and the non-occurrence group (210 patients) based on whether C<sub>5</sub> nerve root palsy occurred after the operation. The general data of patients in the two groups were compared. The predictive value of statistically significant continuous variables was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The factors influencing patients' postoperative C<sub>5</sub> nerve root palsy were analyzed using Logistic regression analysis. And the clinical efficacy of Nomogram model was assessed using decision curve analysis.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Compared with the non-occurrence group, the patients in the occurrence group had a shorter disease duration, higher preoperative cervical curvature and spinal cord posterior displacement distance, and higher percentage of positive pathological reflexes, foraminal stenosis, and ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament.The difference was statistically significant <i>P</i><0.05. The area under the curve (AUC) for cervical curvature and posterior displacement of the spinal cord prior to surgery were 0.699 and 0.697, respectively.
