Understanding Kyphoplasty
Kyphoplasty is a specialized medical procedure designed for vertebral compression fractures, often caused by osteoporosis or
traumatic injuries. The process involves a small incision, inserting a balloon-like device into the fractured vertebra, gently inflating it to create space, and injecting medical-grade bone cement to stabilize and restore the bone’s height.
Benefits of Kyphoplasty
1. Swift Recovery
One of the primary advantages of kyphoplasty is its quick recovery period. Unlike traditional open surgeries, this minimally invasive procedure allows patients to resume normal activities sooner, promoting a faster return to a normal daily routine.
2. In-Office Convenience
OrthoConnecticut takes pride in offering kyphoplasty as an in-office procedure. This means patients can receive expert care without the need for a hospital stay, ensuring the comfort of a familiar environment for the procedure and recovery at home.
3. Pain Reduction
Kyphoplasty provides rapid relief from the severe pain associated with vertebral compression fractures. By stabilizing the fractured vertebra, most patients experience immediate alleviation of discomfort, enhancing overall quality of life.
