Spinal compression fractures are also called vertebral compression fractures (VCF). This type of spinal fracture can cause severe back pain and adversely affect your overall health.
Vertebral compression fractures may compromise the spinal canal, which means the VCF may cause myelopathy or spinal cord injury. Symptoms may include include numbness, weakness, bowel and/or bladder problems, and in rare cases, paralysis.
Balloon kyphoplasty usually takes about a half hour per spinal level treated.
Kyphoplasty can be performed using local or general anesthesia, depending on many factors, such as the patient’s general health and severity of the fracture.
Pain relief after kyphoplasty will be immediate for some patients. In others, elimination or reduction of pain is reported within two days.
Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive surgery used to treat a spinal compression fracture.
The goals of a kyphoplasty surgical procedure are designed to stop the pain caused by a spinal fracture, to stabilize the bone, and to restore some or all of the lost vertebral body height due to the compression fracture.

Vertebral compression fractures that go untreated are associated with many risks that can lead to significant morbidity and mortality, even more so than hip fractures.
