Vertebral body stenting, or stentoplasty, is a novel percutaneous option in spinal cement augmentation. Conventional stentoplasty requires insertion of two paramedian stents per vertebral body through a bipedicular approach. We developed an unipedicular approach in which we implant a single stent into the midline of the vertebral body using cone-beam CT guidance and hereby describe the technical details and feasibility, in this technique that we termed "central stentoplasty."
椎体支架置入术，即支架成形术，是脊柱骨水泥强化术中一种新型的经皮治疗方法。传统的支架成形术需要通过双侧椎弓根入路，在每个椎体中植入两个旁正中支架。我们开发了一种单侧椎弓根入路方法，即使用锥形束CT引导，将单个支架植入椎体中线，并在此描述我们称之为“中央支架成形术”的该技术的技术细节和可行性。
