Feasibility Study of Balloon Kyphoplasty in Traumatic Vertebral Fractures Needing Surgical Fixation

TRAUMAA3B1C1
Start date: December 2007
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Some unstable traumatic vertebral fractures (types A3.2, A3.3, B1 et C1 according to MAGERL classification) may undergo unpredictable secondary displacement. Such fractures require a two session surgery with a first operation carried out immediately to achieve posterior fixation and a second surgery which is performed some days later to stabilize the anterior spine and restore stress resistance. Goal of the present study is to show that percutaneous Balloon Kyphoplasty is able to restore anterior spine strength and replace second session surgery.
