Vertebroplasty, the augmentation of vertebral compression fractures by image-controlled intracorporeal injection of polymethylmethacrylate cement, has shown a steady increase in use. Its chief indication is to palliate pain after a failure of noninvasive therapies. Other benefits include preventing further compression of the treated vertebra and fusing

Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) with acrylic cement [polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)]consists of injecting PMMA into vertebral bodies weakened by osseous lesions. The aim of PVP with PMMA is to obtain an antalgic effect by consolidation in destructive lesions of the spine.

Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP), first described by Hervè Deramond in 1984, is an interventional procedure for the treatment of aggressive vertebral angioma. The aim of this study was to evaluate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) patterns in the affected vertebrae before and after vertebroplasty by determining changes in signal intensity and size and ...

Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to stabilise vertebral compression fractures caused by osteoporosis, haemangioma, myeloma, metastases and bone cysts. Acrylic bone cement is injected into the vertebral body to relieve pain and structurally reinforce the fracture.

Vertebroplasty in Osteoporosis
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2002Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PV) is a safe and effective treatment for relieving pain in patients complaining of severe back pain induced by osteoporotic compression fractures. The success rate exceeds 90% and the complication rate is lower than 1%. Most of the complications are transient and should be avoided using good technique.

Kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2008Percutaneous vertebroplasty is the injection of a vertebral compression fracture (VCF) with bone cement, generally polymethylmethacrylate. Percutaneous kyphoplasty is the placement of balloons into the vertebral body with an inflation/deflation sequence to create a cavity before the cement injection.

Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty
British Menopause Society Journal, 2005Vertebral compression fractures are common in elderly populations and in particular in postmenopausal women as a consequence of osteoporosis. Percutaneous vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty are minimally invasive procedures that are increasingly used to treat persistent or severe acute pain from these fractures. Vertebroplasty works by augmenting the weak

Abstract Vertebral compression fractures are a common cause of severe back pain in osteoporotic geriatric patients. Vertebroplasty is a safe, effective, low-cost way to reduce pain and to improve mortality risk in these patients. This chapter discusses the indications, risks, contraindications, and literature behind this procedure.

Vertebral compression fracture is a significant problem associated with pain and functional impairment. Traditional open surgery has been problematic in the management of patients in this population because of poor bone quality, frequent and extensive medical comorbidity.
