Article Figures & Data
Figures
- fig 1.
Typical osteoporotic VCF at L2.
A, Preoperative radiograph, lateral view.
B, Radiograph after treatment with vertebroplasty. The dark area represents PMMA opacified with barium sulfate.
C, Axial CT scan of the treated L2 segment.
- fig 2.
A and B, Pre- (A) and postoperative (B) axial CT studies in a patient with an L5 vertebra destroyed by renal cell carcinoma who experienced pain relief 24 hours after PVP (which filled much of the vertebra with PMMA)
- fig 3.
Venographic studies of an osteoporotic VCF.
A, Lateral digital subtraction venogram shows nonionic radiographic contrast material leaking into both adjacent disks through endplate fractures.
B, Lateral venogram without digital subtraction of the same site, obtained approximately 10 minutes after A. Note that the radiographic contrast agent is still apparent and thus may have impeded visualization of possible cement leaks during PVP.
- fig 4.
Injection techniques.
A, Anterolateral radiograph shows vertebroplasty performed via a bipedicular approach and injections.B, Anterolateral radiograph shows vertebroplasty performed via a single parapedicular approach, which resulted in a central needle position and good filling with one injection of cement
