          Abstract

          Balloon kyphoplasty (BKP) is a percutaneous treatment for cancer-related vertebral compression fractures (VCF). Posterior vertebral body wall (PVBW) involvement is considered a contraindication for BKP. This study assesses whether BKP is safe and effective for cancer-related VCFs involving the PVBW.
