Description
- Vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive procedure where medical-grade bone cement is injected into a fractured vertebra. This stabilizes the bone and can provide pain relief for individuals with vertebral compression fractures, often caused by osteoporosis.
Need for Medical Attention
- Patients with severe back pain due to vertebral compression fractures may require vertebroplasty. It is considered when conservative measures such as pain medications and bracing are insufficient.
FAQ
- How long does it take for vertebroplasty to relieve pain?
Pain relief can be immediate or occur over a few days as the cement hardens and stabilizes the fractured vertebra.
- Are there risks associated with vertebroplasty?
Risks are generally low, but potential complications include infection, nerve injury, or leakage of cement into surrounding tissues.
