Spine Surgery

Spine surgery is a specialized branch of surgery focused on treating conditions affecting the spine, including the vertebrae, discs, nerves, and spinal cord. It is typically recommended for patients experiencing severe back or neck pain, spinal deformities, degenerative disorders, trauma, or nerve compression that cannot be managed through conservative treatments like medications, physical therapy, or injections.

Common spine conditions treated surgically include herniated discs, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, spondylolisthesis, spinal fractures, and tumours. Spine surgeons employ both minimally invasive and open surgical techniques to relieve pain, restore mobility, correct deformities, and stabilise the spine. Procedures may involve spinal fusion, discectomy, laminectomy, or artificial disc replacement, depending on the condition and patient needs.

Successful spine surgery requires careful preoperative evaluation, advanced imaging, and a multidisciplinary approach including anesthesiologists, neurologists, and rehabilitation specialists. Postoperative care, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications are essential for optimal recovery. Spine surgery aims not only to alleviate pain but also to improve function, quality of life, and overall spinal health.
