One was shattered with broken wall. Patient was not fit for regular surgery (80 years old), he was suffering in an orthopedic hospital. His family came to Prof. Dr. Tariq who transferred the patient to hospital and on the same day he performed a revolusanry technique to treat the shattered fracture using CHANGMEI's Kyphoplasty Kit (Including balloon, tool kit and Inflator).
He injected a little cement in center of fractured vertebra and used the balloon to make a shell of cement and waited till it is hard to seal the fractured whole ( egg shell technique) , then he injected cement which held the fracture together and no leak. Second fracture was also treated same as the first one. Whole procedure finished in 30 minutes under local aneasethia . No stitches and patient left hospital in 12 hours walking pain free.
