About

Spine surgery is an invasive pain management procedure in which a specially trained doctor (the surgeon) uses instruments to make incisions to repair damaged spinal tissues. Or in other words Spine surgery whether back or neck surgery, can be sum up as an advanced treatment option for pain and disability caused by an identifiable lesion in the patient’s anatomy that has not adequately improved with non-surgical treatments. Although spinal arthritis tends to be chronic, the symptoms are rarely progressive and rarely require surgery on the painful spinal joints.
Types of Spine Surgery>
There are different types of Spine surgeries, which include the following:

Discectomy: is a procedure to remove a portion of the disc that rests between each vertebra. A herniated disc is the most common reason for spine surgery. In this type of spine surgery, the herniated disc is removed and relieves the pressure on the nerves.

Foraminotomy: is also a procedure used to relieve pressure on a nerve, but in this case, the nerve is being pinched by more than just herniated disc. A foraminotomy removes a portion of bone and other tissue that may be compressing the nerve as it exits the spinal column.

Spine Fusion: is a surgery that is done to eliminate motion between adjacent vertebrae. The spine fusion may be done because to treat a problem such as spondylolisthesis (unstable spine), or it may be done because of the extent of other surgery (such as a laminectomy).

Spinal Disc Replacement is a new surgery that is still quite uncommon. Spine disc replacement is done to treat specific types of back pain while avoiding the problems associated with spine fusion surgery.

Anterior Cervical Corpectomy Spine Surgery: When the cervical disease encompasses more than just the disc space, the spine surgeon may recommend removal of the vertebral body as well as the disc spaces at either end, to completely decompress the cervical canal. This procedure is often done for multi-level cervical stenosis with spinal cord compression caused by bone spur (osteophytes) growth.

Cervical Spine Surgery: is performed for a variety of cervical spine problems. Generally, surgery may be performed for degenerative disorders, trauma or instability. These conditions may produce pressure on the spinal cord or on the nerves coming from the spine. The goal of this surgery is to relieve pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness, restore nerve function and prevent spinal abnormal motion.

Lumbar Laminectomy: is a surgical procedure most often performed to treat leg pain related to herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and other related conditions. The goal of a laminectomy is to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or spinal nerve by widening the spinal canal. This is done by removing or trimming the lamina (roof) of the vertebrae to create more space for the nerves.

Spine Surgery in India top hospitalsEndoscopic Spine Surgery: is an operation on the lumbar spine performed using a surgical endoscope and microsurgical techniques. This type of surgery is performed by orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons who are experts in diagnosing the causes of back and neck pain and recognizing when a patient is likely to get better with surgery

Vertebroplasty: is a procedure in which a special type of synthetic cement material is injected inside the broken spine bone, giving excellent results in pain relief with a very low incidence of side effects. This procedure can be safely done in osteoporotic fractures, painful spine bones after the spread of cancer, noncancerous painful tumors of spine bones or to augment the strength of weak spine bone prior to insertion of screws to increase the holding power of the weak bones for other surgical procedures.
