A device for delivery of a structural element to a destination is disclosed. The device comprises a channel and a plunger slidably positioned inside the channel. The channel has a proximal end, a distal end, and a barrier formed across the channel at the distal end. The plunger is adapted to move the structural element axially through the channel from the proximal end to the distal end and to push it radially into the destination. Methods of percutaneous fixation of a spinal compression fracture and kits for use with the methods of the present invention are also disclosed.
