In any [[patients]] that are [[refractory]] to long term [[Medical therapy template|medical therapy]] and encountering [[vertebral]] [[compression fracture]], [[vertebroplasty]] would be a good option. [[Vertebroplasty]] is a [[minimally invasive surgery]] that is an image-guided by [[fluoroscopy]] assistance. In this method, some [[bone cement]] (mostly [[Polymethylmethacrylate|polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)]]) is injected into the body of the [[vertebra]] that been [[fractured]]. This procedure may lead to improve the stability of [[Vertebral Fractures|fractured vertebra]], take it back to the normal shape. [[PMMA]] injection is done under precise [[fluoroscopic]] observation to prevent any leakage of cement into the [[spinal canal]]. The most important advantages of the [[vertebroplasty]] procedure are minimal invasion rather than other open [[Surgery|surgical]] methods, and rapid symptomatic relief as compared to other [[medical]] treatments.<ref name="pmid28690739">{{cite journal |vauthors=Hemama M, El Fatemi N, Gana R |title=Percutaneous vertebroplasty in Moroccan patients with vertebral compression fractures |journal=Pan Afr Med J |volume=26 |issue= |pages=225 |year=2017 |pmid=28690739 |pmc=5491720 |doi=10.11604/pamj.2017.26.225.9872 |url=}}</ref> 
 
[[Vertebroplasty]] may cause a rapid response in patients with [[osteoporosis]]. The patients may experience immediate [[pain]] and discomfort relief, along with gradual correction of the [[Kyphosis|stooped spine (kyphosis)]] that is occurred because of the [[compression fracture]] in the anterior aspect of [[vertebrae]].

Overview

Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with osteoporosis. Vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, lordoplasty, and vesselplasty are the procedures that are usually reserved for patients with either pathological or osteoporotic vertebral fractures and also in patients refractory to medical therapy. Surgery options for osteoporosis are very limited. In case of hip fracture, open reduction internal fixation or total hip replacement surgery, in rare cases, are the options.

Indications

Contraindications

Complications

Kyphoplasty

  • Kyphoplasty procedure last about 1.5 hours. The patient usually needs to be observed for only a few hours, but in some cases, it may be necessary to hospitalize the patient for a day.[10]

Indications

Contraindications

Contraindications for kyphoplasty for osteoporosis include:

Complications

The main complication is cement leakage following the procedure. Other possible complications include pulmonary embolism and rarely balloon rupture.[11]

Lordoplasty

  • The most cost effective procedure to alleviate the vertebral compression fracture is lordoplasty.
  • It is commonly done following kyphoplasty, when the balloon is deflated and the vertebrae is ready to be injected with cement. It is often used as an alternative to vertebroplasty as it is more cost effective. This procedure may correct the kyphotic angle of the spinal column by 11 to 13 degrees, leading to significant pain relief in 90% of patients.[12] Lordoplasty has a much better 3 months outcome than kyphoplasty, especially in postural and anatomical deviations.[13]

  • Vesselplasty is also known as modified kyphoplasty as it uses a non-stretchable balloon to inject the cement material into the fractured vertebra. It not only prevents the cement leakage but also the re-collapse of soft tissue around the fracture.[17]
