Kyphoplasty at Best Spine Surgery Hospitals in India

Description:

If you have been diagnosed with a spinal fracture caused by osteoporosis, cancer or benign tumors, balloon kyphoplasty is a treatment option you may want to consider. Balloon kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that can significantly reduce back pain and repair the broken bone of a spinal fracture. The procedure is called balloon kyphoplasty because orthopaedic balloons are used to lift the fractured bone and return it to the correct position. Before the procedure, you will have a medical exam and undergo diagnostic studies such as X-rays, to determine the precise location of the fracture. Balloon kyphoplasty can be done under local or general anesthesia—your physician will decide which option is appropriate for you. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Kyphoplasty
If you have been diagnosed with a spinal fracture
caused by osteoporosis, cancer or benign tumors,
balloon kyphoplasty is a treatment option you may
want to consider. Balloon kyphoplasty is a
minimally invasive procedure that can
significantly reduce back pain and repair the
broken bone of a spinal fracture. The procedure
is called balloon kyphoplasty because orthopaedic
balloons are used to lift the fractured bone and
return it to the correct position. Before the
procedure, you will have a medical exam and
undergo diagnostic studies such as X-rays, to
determine the precise location of the fracture.
Balloon kyphoplasty can be done under local or
general anesthesiayour physician will decide
which option is appropriate for you. Balloon
kyphoplasty takes about one hour per fracture
treated. It can be done on an inpatient or
outpatient basis, depending on medical necessity.

When is Kyphoplasty recommended ?
  • Kyphoplasty is done on patients who experience
    painful symptoms or spinal deformities due to
    vertebral compression fractures resulting from
    osteoporosis. Kyphoplasty is also performed on
    patients who
  • Are aged or are in poor health to tolerate open
    spinal surgery.
  • Have too frail bones for surgical spinal repair
  • Have a vertebral damage due to a cancerous tumor
  • Are younger and have osteoporosis caused by a
    long-term steroid management or a metabolic
    disorder

Objective of the Kyphoplasty Procedure
Kyphoplasty is a procedure used to restore the
strength and height of a collapsed or fractured
vertebra by infusing bone cement in the affected
vertebra. It is mainly indicated in elderly
patients suffering from weak and brittle bones
due to osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a disease of
the old age in which the bones become weak and
brittle due to lack of calcium and are vulnerable
to fractures even with trivial trauma. The
vertebral column is most susceptible to such
osteoporotic fractures as it bears the entire
weight of the upper body while doing any small or
big task. The aim of Kyphoplasty is to reduce the
pain of fractured vertebra, to reinforce the
weakened bone and to restore normal vertebral
height.

Benefits of Kyphoplasty
Limitations in the traditional treatments of
vertebral compression fractures have led to the
refinement of such procedures as kyphoplasty.
This procedure provide new options for
compression fractures and are designed to relieve
pain, reduce and stabilize fractures, reduce
spinal deformity, and stop the "downward spiral"
of untreated osteoporosis.

  • Additional benefits of Kyphoplasty Include 
  • Short surgical time
  • Only general or local anesthesia required
  • Average hospital stay is one day (or less)
  • Patients can quickly return to the normal
    activities of daily living
  • No bracing required

Kyphoplasty utilize a cement-like material that
is injected directly into the fractured bone.
This stabilizes the fracture and provides
immediate pain relief, in many cases. Kyphoplasty
has the additional advantage of being able to
restore height to the spine, thus reducing
deformity. After either procedure, most patients
quickly return to their normal daily activities.
