Minimally invasive spine fusion surgery is an advanced surgical technique that utilizes small incision sand specialized instruments to access the spine and perform spinal fusion procedures with minimal disruption to surrounding tissue. This approach to spinal fusion offers several benefits over traditional open surgery, including reduced blood loss, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery times. The procedure can be used to treat a range of spinal conditions, such as degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and spinal instability. With minimally invasive spine fusion surgery, patients can experience less pain and a faster return to their daily activities. In addition, this approach can often be performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to return home the same day as their surgery. This procedure might not be appropriate for all patients, and the decision to undergo this procedure should be made after careful evaluation by a qualified spine surgeon. As with any surgical procedure, there are risks and potential complications associated with minimally invasive spinal fusion surgery, including infection, bleeding, and nerve damage.
The natural breakdown and deterioration of spinal discs, leading to pain and decreased mobility in the spine.
More about Degenerative Disc Disease
Compression or injury to the spinal cord in the neck region, resulting in symptoms like neck pain, weakness, loss of coordination, and difficulty with fine motor skills.
More about Cervical Myelopathy
Narrowing of the spinal canal, typically due to degenerative changes or bone overgrowth, leading to compression of the spinal cord or nerves and causing pain, numbness, and weakness.
More about Spinal Stenosis
The forward slippage of one vertebra over another, often causing instability and leading to symptoms such as back pain, leg pain, and difficulty walking.
Abnormal movement or lack of stability between vertebrae, which can result from various conditions and lead to pain, limited mobility, and an increased risk of further damage to the spine.
