• Compromise or instability of vertebral fractures due to posterior involvement.
• Anatomical damage of the vertebra that prevents safe access of the needle to the vertebral body.
• Vertebral body collapse to less than 1/3 (33%) original height.
• Vertebral plana (collapse >90%).
• Active or incompletely treated infection.
