Abstract

A vertebral compression fracture is a compression of a vertebra, which occurs in the anterior portion of the vertebral body. In the treatment of compression-induced spinal fractures, there are two main directions of treatment: conservative treatment (bed rest, pharmacological treatment, orthosis) and minimally invasive surgical treatment - vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, combined technology (uses implant and cement in the treatment method). Recently, coupled with technological advancements, the combined technology has become increasingly attractive to manufacturers of implantable medical devices. This article presents the combined technologies for minimally invasive surgical treatment that are currently available. Some of them have already been used to treat compression-induced spinal fractures for nearly a decade, sometimes being regarded as a reference for new medical devices entering the market.
