Vertebroplasty surgery is a minimally invasive procedure performed to treat painful vertebral compression fractures caused by osteoporosis, trauma, or spinal tumours. The procedure involves inserting a needle into the fractured vertebra and injecting medical-grade bone cement, which stabilises the bone and restores spinal strength.
Vertebroplasty is usually performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or sometimes general anaesthesia, typically taking about 30 to 60 minutes per vertebra. Most patients experience significant pain relief within 24–48 hours and recover within a few days, with improved mobility and quality of life.

What is a Vertebroplasty Surgery?

Vertebroplasty surgery is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat painful vertebral compression fractures, most commonly caused by osteoporosis, trauma, or spinal tumours. In this procedure, a doctor inserts a thin needle into the fractured vertebra under imaging guidance, such as X-ray or CT scan, to precisely target the affected area.
Once the needle is in place, a special medical-grade bone cement is injected into the weakened vertebra. The cement quickly hardens, stabilising the fracture, reducing pain, and strengthening the spine. This procedure typically provides rapid pain relief and allows patients to return to their normal activities within a short period.

Types of Vertebroplasty Surgery:

While the basic principle remains the same, there are different approaches and closely related techniques used depending on the patient’s condition, severity of fracture, and treatment goals.

  • Percutaneous Vertebroplasty (PVP): This is the standard and most commonly performed technique, where bone cement is directly injected into the fractured vertebra through a needle under imaging guidance. It provides quick pain relief and stabilises the spine effectively.
  • Balloon Kyphoplasty (Related Procedure): Although slightly different from vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty is often considered alongside it. In this technique, a small balloon is inserted and inflated inside the vertebra to create space before injecting the cement. This can help restore some of the lost vertebral height and correct spinal deformity.
  • Image-Guided Vertebroplasty: This approach uses advanced imaging technologies such as fluoroscopy or CT scan for precise needle placement and accurate cement delivery, improving safety and effectiveness.
  • Multi-Level Vertebroplasty: In patients with multiple compression fractures, vertebroplasty can be performed on more than one vertebra in the same session or in staged procedures to provide comprehensive pain relief and spinal stabilisation.

Vertebroplasty Surgery: Pre-Op & Post-Op Care

Pre-operative Care

Before vertebroplasty, a comprehensive clinical evaluation is performed to confirm the diagnosis and assess the suitability of the patient for the procedure. This includes imaging studies such as X-rays, MRI, or CT scans to identify the exact location and severity of the vertebral compression fracture. The doctor reviews the patient’s medical history, including osteoporosis, prior spine conditions, and current medications, especially blood thinners, which may need to be temporarily stopped. Patients are given detailed instructions regarding fasting, medication adjustments, and what to expect on the day of the procedure, ensuring they are well-prepared both physically and mentally.

Intra-operative Care

The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia with sedation, although general anaesthesia may be used in select cases. Continuous imaging guidance using fluoroscopy or a CT scan ensures accurate needle placement. A specialised needle is inserted into the fractured vertebra, and medical-grade bone cement is slowly injected while monitoring for proper distribution and avoiding leakage. The cement quickly hardens, stabilising the fracture. Throughout the procedure, vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels are closely monitored to maintain patient safety.

Post-operative Care

After the procedure, patients are monitored for a few hours to ensure stability and detect any immediate complications. Most patients experience significant pain relief within 24–48 hours and can resume gentle activities, including walking, the same day. Strenuous activities should be avoided for a few weeks, with follow-up care and physiotherapy as needed to support recovery and prevent future fractures.

FAQ's

Yes, vertebroplasty is generally safe when performed by experienced specialists using imaging guidance. Complication rates are low, and most patients experience significant pain relief.

In vertebroplasty, bone cement is directly injected into the fractured vertebra to stabilise it. In kyphoplasty, a balloon is first inserted and inflated to create space and restore height before cement injection.

Although rare, risks include cement leakage, infection, bleeding, allergic reactions, or nerve compression. Proper technique and patient selection minimise these risks.

The effects are usually long-lasting, as the cement permanently stabilises the treated vertebra. Pain relief can be sustained for years if no new fractures occur.

Yes, the cement used in vertebroplasty hardens and remains permanently within the vertebra, providing long-term stabilisation.

No, it is a minimally invasive procedure performed using a needle, not open surgery, and usually requires only a short hospital stay.

The most common complication is minor cement leakage, which is usually asymptomatic and detected only on imaging.

Patients without confirmed compression fractures, those with spinal infections, bleeding disorders, or severe spinal instability may not be suitable candidates. A detailed evaluation is necessary to determine eligibility.

Most patients can resume light activities within 24–48 hours, while full activities can usually be resumed within a few days to a week, depending on recovery.

Physiotherapy may be recommended to strengthen back muscles, improve posture, and prevent future fractures, especially in patients with osteoporosis.
