Spinal Fracture, also known as Vertebral Compression Fracture(VCF).

Through two small incisions, the doctor creates narrow pathway into the fractured bone and inserts two Kypho balloons.

The balloons are carefully inflated in an attempt to raise the collapsed vertebra and return it to its normal position. The balloons are deflated and removed, leaving a cavity within the bone.

The cavity is filled with a bone cement to support the surrounding bone and prevent further collapse.

The cement forms an internal cast that holds the vertebral place.
