Core Tip	Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures are not managed by a single procedure-centered algorithm. Percutaneous vertebroplasty is often favored when rapid, lower-burden stabilization is needed, whereas percutaneous kyphoplasty is more attractive when vertebral collapse or kyphotic deformity is substantial. The best outcomes depend on matching the procedure to fracture acuity, collapse severity, symptoms, comorbidity burden, and ongoing osteoporosis treatment.
