Turning a Challenge into an Advantage: A Technical Report on Kyphoplasty for Multiple Myeloma

Abstract

Natan Silver and Yair Barzilay

Kyphoplasty, a procedure first described in 2001 for the treatment of osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures (VCFs) has since been used successfully for pathological vertebral compression fractures, including those caused by multiple myeloma. Whilst the evidence base for kyphoplasty remains incomplete, there is a general consensus that it is safe and significantly reduces pain in up to 84% of patients in whom nonsurgical management has failed.
