Vertebroplasty is been used to reduce pain and to return the patients to their normal life quality in osteoporotic compression fractured patients for many years. Although vertebroplasty was widely used at lower thoracic and lumbar regions earlier, with higher experience it became administrable at mid and upper thoracic vertebrae nowadays.
