Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive treatment option for patients who have a vertebral fracture. This procedure consists of filling the fractured space with a cement-like material which hardens quickly and stabilizes the previously fractured bone. This procedure is performed at an outpatient surgery center under mild sedation.
