Contact UsWhat Is A Kyphoplasty?
Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive spine procedure used to treat vertebral compression fractures. Compression fractures are often due to age-related degeneration and trauma, which causes the vertebrae to collapse and can cause severe pain in the back. The kyphoplasty procedure aims to restore vertebral body height and strength to reduce pain and avoid reinjury.
This procedure is for patients whose conservative treatment has not been successful after 4 – 6 weeks and are at risk of becoming bedridden. Our team can provide you with the complete details about this minimally invasive spine surgical procedure at your consultation. Reach out to Pain Zero in Central Ohio.
How Is A Kyphoplasty Performed?
Kyphoplasty is considered a minimally invasive intervention. During the procedure, your Pain Zero physician will gain access to the fractured vertebral body through a needle. Once in position, a surgical balloon is inflated with contrast medication to help heighten the vertebrae and move them back in place.
Special bone cement is then mixed and injected into the cavity in your vertebrae that the balloon created. This bone cement helps to restore vertebral height, provide strength to the vertebrae to avoid re-injury, and alleviate the pain that was associated with the compression fracture. The procedure can take up to twenty minutes to perform, and patients typically require a day of rest before resuming light daily activities. A bandaid is applied and you are on your way home!
Pain Zero Reviews
This is my first visit it went pretty good I felt relaxed with them and it seemed like he truly really wanted to help me to get my pain in order and I'm looking forward to my next visit till I see I can see where we go next on handling my pain shook my hand very polite very good doctor
Staff is very nice. Dr is very nice and to the point.
Antonius really went the extra mile with my care today - even helping with unexpected knee swelling. I'm grateful.
Once again, Dr. Harris zeroed in on the cause of my newest pain & came up with a solution to alleviate it for me. He is a gifted Dr.
I saw Dr.T today for my first consult appointment. I will be honest, I went in extremely apprehensive. I was expecting to be shrugged off, but it was anything but that! I was given so much information, I was given options for medications or creams, I was told that they can provide supportive care instead of bandaid treatments. I was so impressed, honestly. The doctor was very knowledgeable and personable. He listened to me and made me feel heard. I'm looking forward to working with them to help my pain.
