Abstract
Compositions and methods are provided for stabilization and treatment of vertebrae, and in particular for stabilization and treatment of a vertebra having a fracture. Compositions are provided that stabilize and heal a fracture while facilitating healing and reducing the chance for re-injury to the vertebra or adjacent vertebra. Methods include elevation of the vertebra to facilitate healing under reduced pressure situations and include leverage points to elevate the fracture before or during composition insertion.
