Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Conventional vertebroplasty is an effective option in the treatment of bone lesions (osteoporotic and neoplastic). It is indicated as an analgesic treatment and aims at reinforcing a compressed vertebrae or at risk of fracture. The main adverse event related to vertebroplasty use is the cement leakages that might be responsible for significant clinical impairments. Kyphoplasty is a recent alternative strategy of vertebroplasty, based on the insertion on balloon through the needle into the targeted vertebrae and then inflation of the balloon prior to cement injection into the space. In an osteoporotic setting, kyphoplasty allow reducing the incidence of cement leakage. To date, no data from randomized study are available in the population of cancer patients.
