The treatment of osteoporotic vertebral fractures by means of kyphoplasty is an accepted and safe procedure.
In Germany the reimbursement for kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty differs greatly. The growing diversity of suppliers and systems makes a comparison possible and necessary. Besides the illustration of kyphoplasty in the German diagnosis-related group (G-DRG) system and the amendments for 2012 we analyzed the procedures and associated costs.
Using the example of two manufacturers and different system approaches, both of which can be charged as kyphoplasty, we try to point out the importance of selecting exact comparison parameters. In particular material and treatment costs are compared for both methods.
通过椎体后凸成形术治疗骨质疏松性椎体骨折是一种公认的安全手术。
在德国，椎体后凸成形术和椎体成形术的报销情况差异很大。供应商和系统的日益多样化使得进行比较成为可能且必要。除了说明德国诊断相关分组（G-DRG）系统中的椎体后凸成形术以及2012年的修订内容外，我们还分析了手术过程及相关成本。
以两家制造商和不同的系统方法为例，这两种情况都可按椎体后凸成形术收费，我们试图指出选择精确比较参数的重要性。特别对两种方法的材料和治疗成本进行了比较。
