Product catalog summary
Overview of OSTEOPAL® Product Line for Spinal Surgery
Heraeus Medical GmbH has been a leader in bone cements for over 60 years, with a focus on products made in Germany. The OSTEOPAL® product line includes spinal cements designed for vertebral body augmentation, offering flexibility and a range of uses.
OSTEOPAL® V
OSTEOPAL® V is a low-viscosity, X-ray positive bone cement used for filling and stabilizing vertebral bodies. It is composed of a polymer powder mixed with a liquid monomer, with zirconium dioxide added for optimal imaging. This product has been used in spinal surgery for over 15 years, known for its high visibility in imaging and fatigue strength against dynamic loading.
Advantages of OSTEOPAL® V
  • Decades of use in spinal surgery
  • Simple application due to optimized viscosity
  • Enhanced control with zirconium dioxide as an X-ray contrast agent
OSTEOPAL® Plus
OSTEOPAL® Plus shares the excellent material properties of OSTEOPAL® V but offers a prolonged working time, making it suitable for multi-stage vertebral body augmentation. It maintains the same ease of application and control as OSTEOPAL® V.
Advantages of OSTEOPAL® Plus
  • Extended working time
  • Single mixture usable for multiple vertebral bodies
  • Based on the proven OSTEOPAL® V formula
  • Optimized viscosity for simple application
  • Control over application with zirconium dioxide as an X-ray contrast agent
Clinical Case Study: Vertebroplasty
A case study involving a 55-year-old male patient with an osteoporotic vertebral body fracture (T4-T7) demonstrated the effectiveness of OSTEOPAL® products. Postoperative imaging showed excellent visibility of the cement filling.
