Vertebroplasty also known as Percutaneous Vertebroplasty is a spinal procedure in which bone cement is injected through a small hole in the skin (percutaneously) into a fractured vertebra with the goal of relieving the pain of osteoporotic compression fractures and providing strength to the bone.

Vertebroplasty
Vertebroplasty also known
as Percutaneous Vertebroplasty is a spinal
procedure in which bone cement is injected
through a small hole in the skin
(percutaneously) into a fractured vertebra
with the goal of relieving the pain of
osteoporotic compression fractures and
providing strength to the bone.
Vertebroplasty is used for patients with vertebral compression fractures due to
osteoporosis, metastatic tumors, or benign tumors such as vertebral heamangiomas. It
also provides vertebral stabilization when the lesion threatens the stability of the spine.
Vertebroplasty can increase patient mobility, decrease narcotic needs, and prevent
further vertebral collapse.

Osteoporosis is a condition where the
bone density decreases with advancing
age, due to deficiency of calcium and
vitamin D. Osteoporosis makes the bones
of the body weak and susceptible to
fractures, especially of the spine.
Approximately 85% fractures in old age
are caused by osteoporosis and remaining
15% are caused by bone weakness caused
by other conditions such as spread of
cancer to the bones. Percutaneous
Vertebroplasty is indicated for painful
osteoporotic or neoplastic vertebral
compression fractures refractory to
medical therapy.

Advantages of Vertebroplasty
Vertebroplasty is considered for
patients with painful compression
fractures in the spine, often caused by
osteoporosis. Because the treatment
often results in a dramatic decrease in
pain, the advantages are numerous.
Decreased Pain : A compression fracture causes sharp and debilitating pain.
Those suffering from these fractures are often prescribed bed rest and pain
medication. Vertebroplasty reduces and in some cases eliminates the need for
pain medication, and it also restores mobility in many patients.

Prevention of further vertebral collapse. The
cement fills spaces in bones made porous by
osteoporosis, strengthening the bone so that it
is less likely to fracture again.

Recovery :
The patient recovery is quick as it is a
minimally invasive surgery with very
little blood loss and damage to
surrounding tissues. The patients are
kept under observation for 1-2 hrs
after which they are discharged. They
return to normal day to day activities
within a week.
