How Vertebroplasty surgical procedure is performed?

Vertebroplasty surgical procedure is performed by an expert Spine Surgeon in a hospital. It takes about an hour for one vertebra and generally includes various steps:

• Patient has to wear a patient’s gown and lie on a procedure table. Then imaging team will insert an IV to provide fluids and medications as well as imaging team will also attach devices to monitor the vital signs.

• General anesthesia is given to patient. Patient has to lie face down to expose the spine. The affected area of spine is cleaned.

• The surgeon will numb the skin and muscles with an injection of local anesthetic. A needle is inserted through the skin and into the fractured spinal vertebra. Real-time X-rays guide the proper needle placement.

• Once the needle is in place, the surgeon will inject medical-grade cement into the vertebra and then remove the needle. The cement hardens within 15 to 20 minutes.

• In this way, the surgeon repeats the process for each fractured vertebra. Additional X-ray images are taken once the injections are completed.
