Brief summary

The aim of this retrospective study is to show that kyphoplasty is a reliable technique in the treatment of certain traumatic vertebral fractures. Patients will be selected from medical records archived at the Neuroradiology Department of Dijon CHU. An information sheet and questionnaire will be sent to patients together with a letter to ask them to have a radiographic examination. The radiographic images will be interpreted by two independent experts to evaluate the angle pf vertebral kyphosis.
