"This is a remarkable procedure," said Anthony Bottini, M.D., neurosurgeon with CentraCare Clinic in St. Cloud. "It has many positives for patients, including limited intervention, minimal risk and a high likelihood of success in reducing or eliminating pain."
Bottini added that it is a cost saver because there are minimal hospitalization costs and no need for ongoing therapy. In contrast, some people who are treated with conservative bed rest, narcotics and a brace may lose mobility during their confinement, exacerbate other medical conditions and suffer additional bone strength loss from osteoporosis while immobilized.
"When appropriate for the patient's condition, kyphoplasty is more than 90 percent effective for pain relief from vertebral fractures," Bottini said. -
