সংজ্ঞা

The vertebrae are a series of bones that make up the spine. When one fractures, it can put pressure on surrounding nerves. This can cause intense pain and disability. The bones may be repaired with these procedures.

  • In vertebroplasty, an acrylic cement is injected into a fractured and collapsed vertebra (spinal bone). The cement strengthens the bone and decreases pain from the fracture.
  • In kyphoplasty, a balloon is used to create a cavity to inject the cement into. This procedure is designed to relieve pain. It can also improve spinal deformities from the fractures.

পদ্ধতির কারণ

Both procedures are used to decrease pain from a vertebral fracture. Kyphoplasty also restores the height of the bone. This can decrease the spinal deformity caused by the fracture.

Other treatment for vertebral fracture may include nonsurgical treatments, such as bed rest, bracing, and pain medicines.

Vertebral Fracture

সম্ভাব্য জটিলতা

Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have a vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty, your ডাক্তার একটি তালিকা পর্যালোচনা করবে of possible complications which may include:

  • Leakage of the cement into the spinal canal or into adjacent veins
  • সংক্রমণ
  • রক্তপাত
  • Increased পিঠে ব্যাথা
  • Fracture of adjacent vertebra or ribs
  • Numbness, tingling
  • পক্ষাঘাত

Your doctor may feel that the risks of these procedures are too great if you have:

  • Vertebral fractures that extend into the spinal canal area
  • Radiculopathy—irritation of a nerve root in the area of the fracture that often causes areas of numbness, tingling, or weakness in the leg
  • বর্তমান সংক্রমণ
  • রক্তপাতের ব্যাধি
  • Unusually soft or porous bones

If you have vertebral fracture due to osteoporosis, vertebroplasty may not be as effective.

In addition, smoking can increase the risk of complications.

কি আশা করা যায়

পদ্ধতির আগে

  • You will receive a complete physical exam and blood tests.
  • You will have imaging studies of your back, such as:
    • X-ray and Bone scans —tests that use radiation to take pictures of structures inside the body, especially bones
    • MRI scan —a test that uses magnetic waves to make pictures of structures inside the body
    • CT scan —a type of x-ray that uses a computer to make pictures of the inside of the body
  • আপনার ওষুধ সম্পর্কে আপনার ডাক্তারের সাথে কথা বলুন। পদ্ধতির এক সপ্তাহ আগে আপনাকে কিছু ওষুধ খাওয়া বন্ধ করতে বলা হতে পারে, যেমন:
    • অ্যাসপিরিন বা অন্যান্য প্রদাহ বিরোধী ওষুধ
    • রক্ত পাতলাকারী, যেমন ক্লোপিডোগ্রেল (প্লাভিক্স) বা ওয়ারফারিন (কুমাদিন)
  • You will need to stop eating at least six hours prior to the procedure. Stop drinking fluids about 3-6 hours prior to the procedure.

এনেস্থেশিয়া

  • Most are done using only IV sedation and local anesthesia. The sedation will help you relax. The local will numb the area above the fractured bone.
  • In some cases, general anesthesia may be used. You will be asleep.

পদ্ধতির বর্ণনা

Vertebroplasty

You will be asked to lie down on your stomach. X-ray cameras will be positioned around you. The cameras will show images of the bone. Your doctor will use this to verify the position of the needles and cement.

The skin over the fractured bone will be numbed and sterilized. A hollow needle will be passed into the vertebra. The acrylic cement will be mixed into a toothpaste-like consistency. An added substance, called barium, will improve the images. When the needle position is ideal, the cement will be injected into the fractured bone. The doctor will watch the cement as it enters the bone to check for leaks.

কাইফোপ্লাস্টি

Your doctor will begin by making a small incision in your back. A tiny drill will be used to create an opening in the bone. A special balloon will be passed through. The balloon will be inflated to open the space and correct the deformity. After the balloon is removed, acrylic cement will be injected into the cavity. This will help to maintain the correction.

অবিলম্বে প্রক্রিয়া পরে

You may have a CT scan to confirm the position of the cement. You will stay on your stomach for about 10-20 minutes. This will allow the cement to harden. You will then be moved to a recovery room. You will be asked to lie on your back for another hour or so.

কতক্ষণ এটা লাগবে?

40 minutes to 2 hours

এটা কতটা আঘাত করবে?

You may feel some initial pain due to lying on your stomach. Many notice immediate and significant relief from pain.

গড় হাসপাতালে থাকার

You will usually only need to stay in the hospital for a few hours. You may need to stay longer if you have any complications.

পোস্ট-প্রক্রিয়া যত্ন

হাসপাতালে

You will be monitored for a few hours for any complications.

ঘরে

You may notice some discomfort at the site of the needle insertion or the tiny incision. This is often relieved through the use of an ice pack (use only for 15 minutes per hour). Acetaminophen or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicine may also help. You may also be given medicine to prevent muscle spasm.

You will be asked to stay in bed for about 24 hours after the procedure. After 24 hours, you can gradually increase your activities up to your usual level. Ask your doctor about when it is safe to shower, bathe, or soak in water.
