Kyphoplasty

Kyphoplasty Treatment in EM Bypass, Kolkata

Why is Kyphoplasty done?

We advise Kyphoplasty in the following cases:

  • Treat vertebral compression fractures caused by osteoporosis or spinal injury

  • Treat pathologic fractures due to spinal tumours or multiple myeloma

  • Unable to move properly, and the back pain is worsening due to compression

  • Pain is getting severe and does not get better with conventional methods

To confirm a compression fracture, our surgeon will conduct imaging tests. For more serious cases, they provide advanced spinal fracture stabilisation in EM Bypass, Kolkata, ensuring effective support and recovery.

What happens before the Kyphoplasty Procedure?

Before the procedure, our spine specialists will do the following:

  • Examine you physically

  • Order blood tests to assess your overall health, and a spine X-ray, MRI, or CT scan to locate the fracture

  • Understand recent illnesses and allergies, if any

  • Advice on medications and dietary instructions

What happens during the Kyphoplasty Procedure?

We will perform the procedure under local or general anaesthesia. The process involves:

  • Using an X-ray, the doctor will insert a hollow needle, also called a trocar, through the skin into the affected bone area

  • Then, inflate a balloon to create space and help the vertebra regain its normal height

  • Will inject the medical-grade cement with the help of X-rays to prevent bones from collapsing

  • The doctor will remove the needle, and no stitches will be required.

The Kyphoplasty Treatment in EM Bypass, Kolkata, will take less than an hour for each section of the spine.

What happens after the Kyphoplasty Procedure?

After the treatment, you will be taken to the recovery room and may need to stay there for a night. You can start walking after an hour, but you may feel some soreness. A bandage will be placed at the surgery site, which you can remove after 2 days. Instructions related to medications, aftercare, restricted activities, and follow-ups will be provided.
