An apparatus includes an elongate body and an expandable member coupled to
the elongate body. In one embodiment, the expandable member has a
collapsed configuration, an unfolded configuration and an expanded
configuration. The expandable member is configured to be percutaneously
inserted into an interior portion of a bone structure when the expandable
member is in the collapsed configuration. The expandable member is
configured to exert a pressure in a vertical direction on a first portion
of the bone structure in contact with the expandable member greater than
a pressure exerted in a lateral direction on a second portion of the bone
structure in contact with the expandable member when the expandable
member transitions from the unfolded configuration to the expanded
configuration.
