Maria -
I don't know too much about vertebroplasty, so I asked Dr. Google. I found an article from 2002 from the American Academy of Family Physicians saying that vertebroplasty was totally acceptable for many uses, including "Reinforcement of a pathologically weak vertebral body before a surgical stabilization procedure". Why do you say it's "not available here in the US"? I don't really know much about this.
