Vertebroplasty is performed for painful vertebral compression fractures, most often caused by osteoporosis (weakened bones from aging), and occasionally by spinal tumors or trauma, when the fracture causes ongoing pain that hasn't improved with rest, bracing, and pain medication.

Signs You May Need Vertebroplasty

Warning signs include sudden, severe back pain often following minimal trauma like a cough, sneeze, or minor fall, pain that worsens with standing or walking and improves lying down, and in some cases, a noticeable loss of height or increasing spinal curvature (kyphosis) from multiple fractures.

Types of Vertebroplasty

Vertebroplasty injects bone cement directly into the fractured vertebra to stabilize it, while a related procedure, kyphoplasty, first inflates a small balloon inside the vertebra to restore some height before injecting cement — the choice depends on the fracture pattern and degree of vertebral collapse.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly does this relieve pain?

Many patients experience significant pain relief within 24-48 hours of the procedure, much faster than typical fracture healing time.

Is this a major surgery?

No, it's a minimally invasive procedure done through a needle under imaging guidance, usually requiring only local anesthesia with sedation and a short hospital stay.

Will this prevent future fractures?

Vertebroplasty treats the current fracture but doesn't prevent new fractures elsewhere in the spine, so treating underlying osteoporosis with medication is important for long-term bone health.

What are the risks?

Risks include cement leakage outside the vertebra, infection, and rarely nerve injury, all of which are minimized by performing the procedure under precise imaging guidance.

Is kyphoplasty better than vertebroplasty?

Kyphoplasty can restore some vertebral height before cementing, which may be preferred for certain fracture patterns, but both are effective at relieving pain — your specialist can advise which suits your fracture.
