Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty

VERTEBROPLASTY AND KYPHOPLASTY OVERVIEW

Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty are advanced, minimally invasive spine procedures used to treat painful vertebral compression fractures caused by conditions like osteoporosis, trauma, or cancer. In Vertebroplasty, bone cement is injected into the fractured vertebra to stabilize it, while Kyphoplasty involves inflating a small balloon to restore vertebral height before cement injection. Both techniques aim to relieve pain, restore spinal stability, and improve mobility. They offer quick recovery, minimal hospital stay, and high success rates in reducing pain. These procedures significantly enhance quality of life, especially for elderly patients suffering from chronic back pain or collapsed vertebrae.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty?

The recovery time for Total Hip Replacement typically ranges from 6 weeks to 6 months. Patients can start walking with assistance within a few days, but full recovery, including regaining strength and mobility, may take several months. Rehabilitation and physical therapy are crucial during this time to achieve the best results.

Recovery is usually quick most patients resume light activity within 24–48 hours. Pain relief is often immediate. Full recovery may take about one to two weeks, depending on overall health and bone strength. Doctors recommend avoiding heavy lifting and maintaining a bone-friendly diet during this period.

Ideal candidates include individuals with painful spinal compression fractures due to osteoporosis, cancer, or trauma who haven’t responded to conservative treatments like rest or medication. Diagnosis through MRI or CT scans confirms the fracture’s age and severity before deciding the best procedure.
