Compression fractures typically comprise of one vertebral level, do not have neurologic involvement, and are considered stable. Management options include early ambulation without bracing treatment, or orthosis, which may be beneficial in avoiding flexion load at the fracture site. 44 Surgical treatment should be considered when there is progressive kyphosis greater than 30°, loss of vertebral body height greater than 50%, increase in fracture angle greater than 10°, or presence of burdensome back pain despite nonsurgical management.
