case_images: (a) The sagittal heavily T2-weighted fat-suppressed MRI imaging shows myeloma-related osseous destruction/pathological fracture of the corpus vertebrae axis. (b) BKP via a transoral approach. (c) After removal of the balloon catheter, the cavity created is filled with PMMA cement. (d) Centrally located cement plug in the sagittal T2-weighted MRI slice. (e) and (f) The sagittal and coronal reformed CT slices show a cement plug located centrally in the lesion. Cement leakage can be ruled out.

case_images: The cavity prepared in this way was then successively filled with 2.6 ml of viscous PMMA cement (Kyphon VuE  bone cement) using a low-pressure method, also under fluoroscopy (Fig. 1a-c). The control CT showed a central cement distribution in the tumour lesion, whilst cement leakage could be excluded (Fig. 1d-f).

case_images: A significant, rapid and sustained pain reduction developed from 9 score points on the VAS pre-intervention to 2 points on postoperative day 2 and complete freedom from pain under provoked movement after 6 months (Fig. 2).
