摘要：
Devices and methods for creating space within a body structure for therapeutic purposes include an expandable member disposed on the distal end portion of a catheter. Such devices and methods can be used, for example, for creating space within bone, and for injecting a filler material such as cement into the space to strengthen, repair, or otherwise enhance the bone structure.
