Percutaneous vertebroplasty: An update
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2005Percutaneous vertebroplasty is an imaging-guided interventional technique in which surgical polymethylmethacrylate is injected via a large bore needle into a painful compressed vertebral body. This technique is safe and effective, and provides increased strength and pain relief in vertebrae weakened by bone diseases.

Future directions in percutaneous vertebroplasty
La radiologia medica, 2009The first percutaneous vertebroplasty, used to treat a painful cervical haemangioma, was performed by a French team in 1984 and reported in the literature in 1987. This technique has rapidly become the standard of care for treatment of medically refractory painful vertebral compression fractures.

Percutaneous vertebroplasty in tumoral osteolysis
European Radiology, 2007Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive, radiologically guided procedure in which bone cement is injected into structurally weakened or destructed vertebrae in order to achieve additional biomechanical stability. In addition to treating osteoporotic vertebral fractures, this technique gains popularity to relieve pain by stabilizing ...

Percutaneous Vertebroplasty: Technical Considerations
Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2003Percutaneous vertebroplasty has now been in use in the United States for 10 years. Standards of practice are available from the American College of Radiology. The performance of this procedure is becoming routine for most interventional practices, and it has become the general standard of care for pain associated with vertebral compression fractures of

[Percutaneous vertebroplasty].
La Revue de medecine interne, 1996Vertebroplasty is a new therapeutic method which by way of filling with acrylic cement in the vertebral body gives a stabilization of the vertebra and an antalgic effect in painful lesions involving the spine. Main indications consist of spine angiomas, metastases and osteoporotic fractures involving the vertebral body. In most patients, vertebroplasty

The Strengthening Effect of Percutaneous Vertebroplasty
Clinical Radiology, 2000To examine whether single-needle vertebroplasty is effective in strengthening vertebrae.Four adjacent intact lumbar vertebrae were removed from each of nine adult post-mortem subjects. One or two vertebra of each set was injected with low viscosity acrylic bone cement using a single-track posterolateral approach.
