Kyphon VuE™ bone cement
Kyphon VuE™ is a high-viscosity radiopaque polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement used to stabilize the vertebrae in patients with compression fractures.
Description
Kyphon VuE™ cement is a quick-to-dough, high-viscosity radiopaque PMMA cement with augmented barium particles, which allow increased fluoroscopic visualization of cement flow during vertebral augmentation procedures.
Features and benefits
Enhanced flow visualization1 allows you to control cement injection precision and better monitor possible cement leakage based on the patient’s anatomy and fracture.2,3
Compared to our non-visually enhanced bone cement, Kyphon VuE™ offers:
- Better visualization of cement flow1
- Lower rate of cement extravasation2,3
- Confidence to control cement injection
- The familiar handling properties of Xpede™ cement with the confidence to control the cement flow support optimal procedure efficiency1–4
