Area of Science:

  • Spine Surgery
  • Orthopedic Procedures
  • Minimally Invasive Techniques

Background:

  • Vertebral augmentation, including kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty, is a percutaneous procedure for compression fractures.
  • Historically, conservative treatment showed no difference compared to cement augmentation, but recent data indicate improved patient outcomes and mobility.
  • Cement augmentation is increasingly used for high-energy trauma, burst fractures, spinal deformities, and pathologic fractures.

Approach:

  • Review of current literature on vertebral augmentation techniques and outcomes.
  • Analysis of cement augmentation's efficacy in various spinal conditions, including trauma, deformity, and osteoporosis.
  • Exploration of new advancements and expanded indications for vertebral augmentation procedures.

Key Points:

  • Cement augmentation reduces local kyphosis and restores anterior column height in burst fractures.
  • It improves pain control in pathologic compression fractures and reduces proximal junctional kyphosis risk in spinal deformity.
  • Augmentation with cement-augmented fenestrated screws decreases screw pullout risk in osteoporotic patients.

Conclusions:

  • Vertebral augmentation with cement is a safe and viable intervention for various spinal pathologies.
  • Recent literature supports improved patient outcomes and mobility with these percutaneous procedures.
  • This review highlights new advances and current indications for vertebral augmentation in spine surgery.
