Spine surgery from the simple to complex procedures is performed on a regular basis. Surgeries like lumbar and cervical discectomies to relieve pain from a ‘slipped’ disc are done using microneurosurgical techniques for better outcomes. Complex spinal fixation procedures from the top of the spine (craniovertebral junction) to the lumbar spine are performed. Spinal tumour surgery needs a special mention here. These very technically demanding operations are being done in the department for many years now. Neurophysiological monitoring greatly helps here to assess the real-time function of the spinal cord and nerves. This system involves testing the motor as well as sensory components of the spinal cord and nerves.
Conditions Requiring Spine Surgery
Spine surgery may be required for various conditions, including:
- Herniated Discs: When the soft cushion between the vertebrae bulges out, causing pain, numbness, or weakness.
- Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal that can put pressure on the spinal cord and nerves, leading to pain and mobility issues.
- Degenerative Disc Disease: Age-related changes in the discs that can cause pain and limit movement.
- Spondylolisthesis: A condition where one vertebra slips forward over another, potentially causing nerve compression.
- Spinal Tumors: Abnormal growths that can be benign or malignant, requiring surgical intervention for removal.
- Spinal Fractures: Breaks in the vertebrae due to trauma or osteoporosis that may require surgical stabilization.
- Infections: Spinal infections that can cause severe pain and require surgical drainage or debridement.
- Chronic Back Pain: When conservative treatments fail, surgery may be considered to alleviate persistent pain.
