Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty
About the Procedure
Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty are minimally invasive procedures used to treat painful spinal compression fractures. Bone cement is injected into the fractured vertebra to stabilize it and relieve pain. Kyphoplasty may include balloon inflation to restore height before cement placement. These procedures provide rapid pain relief and improved mobility.
