Vertebroplasty shows promise for vertebral fractures but has increasing complications. A definitive assessment for osteoporotic fractures is pending, though it

Area of Science:

  • Spinal Surgery
  • Interventional Radiology

Background:

  • Vertebroplasty is an emerging treatment for vertebral body fractures.
  • Increasing procedure rates correlate with reported complications.
  • A comprehensive review of current findings is warranted.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize existing knowledge on vertebroplasty.
  • To evaluate vertebroplasty's efficacy and safety across various aspects.

Main Methods:

  • A Medline search was conducted.
  • Key aspects reviewed include basic science, diagnostics, indications, contraindications, technique, results, and complications.

Main Results:

  • Significant knowledge gaps persist regarding indications and long-term effects.

  • The "ideal" vertebroplasty technique remains undefined.
  • Lack of prospective, randomized long-term clinical trials hinders definitive conclusions.
  • Conclusions:

    • Vertebroplasty's role in treating osteoporotic fractures compared to conservative methods is currently unclear.
    • Vertebroplasty is a viable therapeutic option for select cases of vertebral malignancy.
