The role of kyphoplasty and expandable intravertebral implants in the acute treatment of traumatic thoracolumbar vertebral compression fractures: a systematic review.
Diogo Filipe Lino MouraPublished in: EFORT open reviews (2024)
After the discussion, where we address the concepts of direct and indirect reduction, the association of kyphoplasty with pedicle fixation, the potential advantages of expandable intravertebral implants, as well as the vertebral body type of filling in kyphoplasty, it is concluded that kyphoplasty demonstrates favorable outcomes as a method of posterior percutaneous transpedicular access for reconstruction of the anterior column in burst fractures. It allows for the reconstruction of the vertebral body closer to its original anatomy, carried out in a minimally invasive and safe way, which provides a clinical-functional and imaging improvement maintained at the medium-long term.
