Fractures are most common in the spine for a person who suffers from Osteoporosis.
This is the first time this technique is being used to treat Osteoporotic fracture.
Osteoporotic fractures occur as a result of Osteoporosis, a condition where the bones become weak and fragile due to loss of bone mass and deterioration. Fractures in the spine are most common among individuals with Osteoporosis.
A new treatment option is now available for people suffering from this condition. Max Super-specialty Hospital in Saket, Delhi, has introduced a novel technique for treating patients with Osteoporosis. This marks the first time this technique is being used for such treatment.
Recently, Max Super Specialty Hospital effectively treated osteoporotic fractures using the advanced ‘Vertebral Body Stenting System’. The treatment proved to be safe and successful. Dr. Harshvardhan Hegde, director of the Department of Orthopedics and Joint Replacement, who performed the treatment, highlighted its effectiveness in alleviating the pain experienced by individuals with this condition.
How does the Vertebral Body Stenting System work?
The Vertebral Body Stenting System is a recent surgical procedure successfully used in India to treat osteoporotic spine fractures. The procedure involves inserting a cannula at the site of the compression fracture, guided by X-rays, to minimize invasiveness and reduce the risk of complications.
Initially, a stent is placed in the affected area to maintain the biomechanics of the spine and improve stability and alignment. Then, the balloon inside the stent is inflated, expanding the inner walls of the vertebra and creating a protective ring for the spine.
Dr. Hegde described the Vertebral Body Stenting System as a modern technology in spinal surgery. Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital has introduced this technique for spinal osteoporotic fracture patients, aiming to improve stability, alignment, and nerve protection, ultimately providing a safe and effective solution. The hospital hopes that this modern surgical technique will enhance the quality of life for patients.
