Vertebroplasty

Vertebroplasty is a procedure in which a special cement is injected into a fractured vertebra — with the goal of relieving your spinal pain and restoring your mobility.Not all people with fractured vertebrae are candidates for the procedure, however. Some studies also suggest that vertebroplasty provides little benefit over a more conservative approach, which can include:

  • Bed rest
  • Pain relievers
  • Muscle relaxants
  • Back braces
  • Physical therapy

Patients should talk with their doctor about vertebroplasty’s risks and benefits.
