What are Vertebroplasty / Kyphoplasty?

Vertebroplasty / Kyphoplasty are specialized medical procedures designed to treat vertebral compression fractures, which are often the result of weakened vertebrae due to osteoporosis, trauma, or other spinal conditions. These procedures involve the injection of bone cement into the fractured vertebra to stabilize it, reduce pain, and restore spinal function.

Conditions Treated with Vertebroplasty / Kyphoplasty at Hassan Spine and Sports Medicine

  • Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures: Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty are highly effective in treating fractures caused by osteoporosis, a condition that weakens bones and makes them more susceptible to fracture.
  • Traumatic Vertebral Fractures: If you have experienced a traumatic injury resulting in vertebral fractures, these procedures can help stabilize and repair the damaged vertebrae.
  • Tumor-Related Compression Fractures: In some cases, Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty may be used to treat compression fractures caused by spinal tumors or metastatic cancer.

What to Expect During Vertebroplasty / Kyphoplasty Procedures

  • Consultation: You’ll meet with our medical team for a comprehensive evaluation and to discuss your symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals.
  • Procedure: During Vertebroplasty or Kyphoplasty, a small incision is made, and a specialized balloon is inserted into the fractured vertebra. The balloon is inflated to create space, and bone cement is then injected to stabilize the vertebra. The procedure typically takes about an hour per vertebra treated.
  • Recovery: Following the procedure, you may experience some mild soreness or discomfort at the incision site, which typically subsides within a few days. You can usually resume your regular activities relatively quickly.
  • Follow-up: Our team will provide post-procedure care instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress, make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan, and ensure your ongoing comfort and well-being.
