Interventional Pain Management
Kyphoplasty
How kyphoplasty works, what it treats, and what to expect at Clearway.
What is Kyphoplasty?
Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure for painful vertebral compression fractures. A small balloon restores height to the collapsed vertebra and medical cement stabilizes it.
What it can help with
- Vertebral compression fractures
- Osteoporosis-related spine fractures
- Sudden severe back pain from a fracture
What to expect
Usually an outpatient procedure under light sedation. Many patients experience substantial pain relief within days and improved posture and mobility.
Every treatment plan at Clearway is individualized. Your specialist will review your history, examination, and imaging before recommending any procedure.
