Vertebral Augmentation Using VCFix Spinal System in Stand-alone Configuration

Brief Summary

This study will review the safety and possibility of the VCFix Spinal System. This is a proof-of-concept study and an initial review of the surgical procedure and how well the VCFix device works, to who that the VCFix is safe and works well in early testings, so that a larger safety study can be done later to help get CE approval. The VCFix Spinal System will be used in its independent setup, within its planned use for treatment of vertebral compression fracture. It's designed to be a small early study to test safety and see if the treatment idea is possible, with one group and no blinding. Two hospitals in EU will enroll in total 10 participants with a single vertebral fracture that will undergo the same surgery. The main test goals are: how successful the access creation of the vertebral body is using the VCFix Preparation kit according to the provided instructions, how successful the positioning of the VCFix implant is by using the VCFix Implantation kit according to the provided instructions, and how successful the fracture reduction by expanding the VCFix implant according to the provided instructions. The main safety goal is: number of device-/procedure-related major side effects through 30 days after the initial procedure. Participant enrollment will last around 12 months. Each participant will be followed for 2 years after the implantations. All side effects related to the spine will be documented throughout the study.
