  • Description
Description

It is a latest technique to treat the breakage in the spinal bone which weakens due to loss of body mass. This procedure includes the insertion of cement through injecting it into these bones. It can be caused because of bone disease, such as osteoporosis which decreases the strength of the bone. Such fracture is most common in those individuals who are above 50 years. It is estimated that 200 million females are dealing with bone disease and 9.2% of people have to opt for vertebroplasty.

Your doctor will perform this operation after following some protocols and these are as follows:-

  • Blood tests
  • MRI
  • Physical examination

When the spinal bone gets fractured then it causes pain. It is due to these fragments get rubbed against each other. Then the surgery is required which is performed by a trained radiologist.

Before the Procedure

  • Running some tests will help your doctor to know the exact location. Then after telling your medical history or if any medicines you are taking. You will be asked to stop blood thinning medications and fasting for a few hours before the procedure.
