Treatments and Procedures
Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty are minimally invasive procedures to treat vertebral compression fractures of the spine. In vertebral compression fractures (VCF), the vertebra collapses inward, creating a "wedged" shape. When several vertebrae become wedge- shaped, it can lead to a humped spine known as kyphosis. Individuals with weakened bones due to osteoporosis or multiple myeloma are particularly susceptible to these fractures. Activities such as lifting a heavy object, sneezing, or coughing can cause these fractures. VCFs can result in back pain, reduced physical activity, depression, loss of independence, decreased lung capacity, and difficulty sleeping.
