What happens during Vertebral Augmentation procedures?

Vertebral augmentation is a broad term for procedures, such as kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty, that stabilize fractured vertebrae intending to reduce the patient’s pain.  All of the procedures involve injecting bone cement into the inside of the fractured vertebra to create an internal cast inside the bone, stabilizing the fracture, and restoring vertebral height.

At Altus, we have more than 20 years of experience providing vertebral augmentation procedures prioritizing optimum comfort and pain relief to all patients.

What conditions do Vertebral augmentation procedures treat?

Most people who undergo some type of vertebral augmentation have suffered a fracture in a spinal vertebra called a compression fracture. A compression fracture can be caused by relatively minor trauma in patients with osteoporosis, spinal infection, or tumor, or from more significant trauma to the spine.
