  • Procedure overview 
  • Vertebroplasty is a procedure in which a special
    medical-grade cement mixture is injected into a
    fractured vertebra. The vertebrae are the small
    bones that make up the spine. When they become
    fractured, you will often experience pain and a
    loss of mobility. When vertebroplasty is
    successful, the cement mixture injection
    stabilizes the vertebra and allows you to return
    to normal activity after a recovery period.
    Reasons for the procedure The main reason you
    would need a vertebroplasty is treat a fractured
    vertebra in your spine thats causing pain and
    reduced function. Not all people with fractured
    vertebrae are candidates for a vertebroplasty,
    however. Your doctor may try other, more
    conservative methods of treating the pain first
    bed rest, pain relievers, muscle relaxants, back
    braces, or physical therapy. These are reasons
    that your doctor may consider a vertebroplasty
    for your fractured vertebra
  • Traditional methods of treating your fractured
    vertebra or back pain fail.
  • You suffer from severe or prolonged pain or
    immobility.
  • The fractured vertebra has led to more serious
    complications, such as deep vein thrombosis,
    acceleration of osteoporosis, respiratory
    problems, loss of height, or other
  • emotional or social issues.

After the procedure you will be probably lie
flat on your back for one hour while the cement
hardens. After the procedure Once the procedure
is complete and the cement has hardened, you will
likely remain in an observation room for an
additional one to two hours. This will allow the
doctor to make sure that the procedure was
successful. You will then likely be able to stand
and walk with little or no pain. You may
experience pain relief almost immediately after
the procedure, but for some people it takes up to
72 hours. Your doctor may provide you with
over-the-counter pain relievers to help ease the
discomfort. Before you are discharged from the
hospital, the doctor will probably perform an
assessment of your pain and check for any
possible complications. You can also expect a
follow-up office visit in the coming weeks to
make sure that the procedure has continued to be
successful for you.

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. Increase
d functional abilities. The pain from a
compression fracture is usually sharp and
debilitating, leaving people unable to perform
everyday tasks. Vertebroplasty stabilizes the
fracture, decreases pain dramatically and allows
a return to the previous level of
activity. 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.
