Kyphoplasty/Vertebroplasty

Kyphoplasty & Vertebroplasty – Advanced Spine Fracture Treatment

Spinal compression fractures, often caused by osteoporosis, trauma, or tumors, can lead to severe pain, reduced mobility, and spinal deformity. At the Vidharbha Institute of Spine Surgery, we provide minimally invasive treatments like Kyphoplasty and Vertebroplasty to restore spinal stability, relieve pain, and improve quality of life.Both procedures are designed to stabilize fractured vertebrae and alleviate pain caused by compression fractures. These treatments are highly effective, minimally invasive, and performed under local or general anesthesia.

Understanding Kyphoplasty and Vertebroplasty

Vertebroplasty

Vertebroplasty involves injecting medical-grade bone cement directly into the fractured vertebra. This stabilizes the bone, prevents further collapse, and reduces pain almost immediately.
Benefits of Vertebroplasty:

  • Rapid pain relief

  • Minimally invasive procedure

  • Outpatient or short hospital stay

  • Preserves mobility and daily activity

Kyphoplasty

Kyphoplasty is a refined version of vertebroplasty. Before injecting the bone cement, a small balloon is inserted and inflated in the collapsed vertebra to restore its height. Once the vertebra is realigned, the cement is injected to stabilize the spine.
Benefits of Kyphoplasty:

  • Corrects spinal deformity and restores vertebral height

  • Reduces pain and improves posture

  • Minimally invasive with a shorter recovery time

  • Improves overall spinal function and mobility

Who Can Benefit?

Kyphoplasty and Vertebroplasty are ideal for patients with:

  • Osteoporotic spinal compression fractures

  • Fractures due to trauma or accidents

  • Painful vertebral compression due to tumors

  • Limited mobility or deformity due to spinal fractures

Early intervention can prevent chronic pain, spinal deformities, and the need for more extensive surgeries.

Procedure Overview

Before Surgery:

  • Thorough evaluation with X-rays, MRI, or CT scans

  • Medical review and anesthesia consultation

  • Detailed discussion of procedure and recovery

During Surgery:

  • Local or general anesthesia administered

  • Small incision made to access fractured vertebra

  • Balloon insertion (kyphoplasty) or direct cement injection (vertebroplasty)

  • Immediate stabilization of the vertebra

After Surgery:

  • Short observation period (few hours to one day)

  • Most patients experience significant pain relief within 24–48 hours

  • Gradual return to normal activities

  • Rehabilitation and lifestyle counseling for spinal health

Benefits of Kyphoplasty and Vertebroplasty

  • Immediate or rapid pain relief

  • Stabilization of the fractured vertebra

  • Minimal scarring and blood loss

  • Preservation of mobility and independence

  • Reduced risk of further spinal deformity

  • Short recovery period

Post-Treatment Care and Recovery

  • Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activities for a few weeks

  • Follow prescribed medication and calcium/vitamin D supplements

  • Regular follow-ups and imaging to monitor vertebral healing

  • Physical therapy to strengthen back muscles and improve posture
