A post-surgical (iatrogenic) wedge fracture is a collapse of the front (anterior) part of a spinal vertebral body that occurs as an unintended consequence of surgery. This creates a “wedge” shape in the affected vertebra. It most often happens when bone strength is reduced by prior surgery (such as spinal fusion or vertebral augmentation) and then stressed by normal activities or minor trauma.

Anatomy of a Vertebral Body

Understanding normal vertebral anatomy helps explain why wedge fractures occur.

  1. Structure & Location

    • The vertebral body is the thick, block-like front portion of each spinal bone.

    • It sits between the intervertebral discs above and below.

  2. Origin & “Insertion”

    • Unlike muscles, bones don’t “originate” or “insert.” Instead, the vertebral body supports mechanical loads from head and torso.

  3. Blood Supply

    • Supplied by paired segmental arteries (e.g., lumbar arteries in the lower spine).

    • Small capillaries penetrate the vertebral endplates to nourish bone.

  4. Nerve Supply

    • Innervated by recurrent meningeal (sinuvertebral) nerves, which transmit pain signals when the bone or surrounding ligaments are injured.

  5. Six Functions

    1. Weight bearing: Carries the bulk of body weight.

    2. Shock absorption: Distributes forces through intervertebral discs.

    3. Structural support: Maintains upright posture.

    4. Protection: Shields the spinal cord within the vertebral canal.

    5. Movement allowance: Permits bending and twisting via facet joints.

    6. Attachment point: Serves as anchor for muscles and ligaments.

Types of Iatrogenic Wedge Fractures

  1. Acute post-fusion fracture – immediately after spinal fusion.

  2. Delayed collapse – weeks to months post-operatively.

  3. Stable wedge – no displacement of vertebral fragments.

  4. Unstable wedge – risk of spinal cord or nerve root injury.

  5. Single-level – affects one vertebra.

  6. Multiple-level – involves two or more adjacent vertebrae.

Causes

  1. Osteoporosis (weakened bone)

  2. Over-aggressive bone removal during surgery

  3. Excessive hardware tension (rods, screws)

  4. Cement leakage in vertebroplasty

  5. Adjacent-segment stress above or below fusion

  6. Radiation therapy to spine

  7. Chronic steroid use

  8. Poor postoperative mobility (too little or too much activity)

  9. Malnutrition (low calcium, vitamin D)

  10. Smoking (impaired bone healing)

  11. Diabetes (delayed bone repair)

  12. Infection weakening bone

  13. Re-operation at same level

  14. High-impact activity soon after surgery

  15. Advanced age

  16. Female sex (postmenopausal bone loss)

  17. Genetic bone disorders

  18. Chronic kidney disease (mineral imbalance)

  19. Hyperthyroidism

  20. Alcohol abuse (toxic to bone cells)

Symptoms

  1. Sudden back pain

  2. Pain worsened by standing or walking

  3. Relief when lying down

  4. Height loss over weeks

  5. Kyphotic “hunchback” posture

  6. Muscle spasms around the spine

  7. Nerve pain radiating to arms/legs

  8. Numbness or tingling

  9. Weakness in limbs

  10. Difficulty breathing (if upper spine)

  11. Loss of balance

  12. Bladder or bowel changes (severe)

  13. Difficulty sleeping

  14. Reduced activity tolerance

  15. Pain when coughing or sneezing

  16. Audible “crack” at injury

  17. Tenderness over the spine

  18. Fatigue from compensating posture

  19. Depression or anxiety about mobility

  20. Fear of movement (kinesiophobia)

Diagnostic Tests

  1. X-ray (plain film) – shows wedge shape

  2. MRI scan – assesses soft tissue and nerve involvement

  3. CT scan – detailed bone imaging

  4. DEXA scan – measures bone density

  5. Bone scan – detects stress fractures

  6. Flexion/extension X-rays – tests stability

  7. Ultrasound – guides interventions

  8. Blood calcium level

  9. Vitamin D level

  10. Parathyroid hormone (PTH)

  11. Bone turnover markers (e.g., osteocalcin)

  12. Inflammatory markers (CRP, ESR)

  13. Vertebral fracture assessment on DEXA

  14. Nerve conduction studies

  15. Electromyography (EMG)

  16. CT myelogram (if MRI contraindicated)

When to See a Doctor

Contact your surgeon or spine specialist if you experience:

  • Worsening pain despite rest and pain relievers

  • Neurological changes such as numbness, tingling, or weakness

  • Loss of bladder or bowel control

  • Fever, redness, or drainage from any surgical wound

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  1. What is an iatrogenic wedge fracture?
    A collapse of the front part of a vertebra caused by prior spinal surgery or treatment.

  2. How soon after surgery can it occur?
    From immediately post-op up to several months later.

  3. Can it heal on its own?
    Mild stable wedges may heal over weeks with non-surgical care.

  4. Is surgery always required?
    No. Many cases respond to bracing and pain management.

  5. What role does bone density play?
    Low bone density (osteoporosis) greatly increases risk.

  6. Can medications prevent it?
    Yes—bisphosphonates, denosumab, and PTH analogs can strengthen bone.

  7. Is kyphoplasty painful?
    It is done under anesthesia and usually relieves pain quickly.

  8. How long is recovery from vertebroplasty?
    Most people go home the same day and walk within hours.

  9. Will I lose height?
    Some height loss is common if the vertebra collapses.

  10. Can physical therapy help?
    Yes—strengthening and posture training reduce symptoms.

  11. Are supplements effective?
    Calcium, vitamin D, magnesium, and vitamin K₂ support bone health.

  12. How often should I get a DEXA scan?
    Every 1–2 years for those at high risk.

  13. Can I exercise after a wedge fracture?
    Yes—low-impact activities like walking and aqua therapy are safe.

  14. What pain meds are safest?
    Acetaminophen and NSAIDs with food, under doctor’s guidance.

  15. How do I reduce future fracture risk?
    Combine bone-strengthening drugs, a balanced diet, regular exercise, and fall prevention.
