Best Spinal Fusion Surgery Hospital in India
Overview Spinal fusion is surgery to for good
connect two or a lot of vertebrae in your spine,
eliminating motion between them.Spinal fusion
involves techniques designed to mimic the normal
healing method of broken bones. t hroughout
spinal fusion, your surgeon places bone or a
bonelike material among the area between two
spinal vertebrae. Metal plates, screws and rods
could also be used to hold the vertebrae
together, in order that they will heal into one
solid unit.Because spinal fusion surgery
immobilizes parts of your spine, it changes the
means your spine will move. This places
additional stress and strain on the vertebrae
above and below the fused portion, and should
increase the rate at that those areas of your
spine degenerate.

Why its done Spinal fusion permanently connects
two or more vertebrae in your spine to improve
stability, correct a deformity or reduce pain.
Your doctor may recommend spinal fusion to treat
the following spine problems Broken vertebrae.
Not all broken vertebrae require spinal fusion.
Many heal without treatment. But if a broken
vertebra makes your spinal column unstable,
spinal fusion surgery may be necessary. Deformitie
s of the spine. Spinal fusion can help correct
spinal deformities, such as a sideways curvature
of the spine (scoliosis) or abnormal rounding of
the upper spine (kyphosis)
  • Spinal weakness or instability. Your spine may
    become unstable if theres abnormal or excessive
    motion between two vertebrae. This is a common
    side effect of severe arthritis in the spine.
    Spinal fusion can be used to restore spinal
    stability in such cases.
  • Spondylolisthesis. In this spinal disorder, one
    vertebra slips forward and onto the vertebra
    below it. Spinal fusion may be needed to treat
    spondylolisthesis if the condition causes severe
    back pain or nerve crowding that produces leg
    pain or numbness.
  • Herniated disk. Spinal fusion may be used to
    stabilize the spine after removal of a damaged
    (herniated) disk.

Risks Spinal fusion is generally a safe
procedure. But as with any surgery, spinal fusion
carries the potential risk of complications. Poten
tial complications include Infection Poor wound
healing Bleeding Blood clots Injury to blood
vessels or nerves in and around the spine Pain at
the site from which the bone graft is
taken Beyond the immediate risks of the
procedure, spinal fusion surgery changes how your
spine works by shifting stress from the fused
vertebrae to adjacent areas of your spine. This
added stress may accelerate the process of wear
and tear in the vertebral joints on either side
of the fusion, causing further damage and
possibly chronic pain.

How you prepare Preparation before surgery may
involve trimming hair over the surgical site and
cleaning the area with a special soap or
antiseptic. Your doctor will give you specific
instructions. Tell your doctor about any
medications you are taking. You may be asked not
to take some medications before the surgery.
During spinal fusion Surgeons perform spinal
fusion while youre under general anesthesia so
youre unconscious during the procedure. Surgeons
have developed a variety of techniques for
performing spinal fusion surgery. The technique
your surgeon uses depends on the location of the
vertebrae to be fused and the reason for the
spinal fusion.

Generally, the procedure involves the
following Incision. To gain access to the
vertebrae being fused, the surgeon makes an
incision in one of three locations in your neck
or back directly over your spine, on either side
of your spine, or in your abdomen or throat so
that your surgeon can access the spine from the
front. Bone graft preparation. The bone grafts
that actually fuse two vertebrae together may
come from a bone bank or from your own body,
usually from your pelvis. If your own bone is
used, the surgeon makes an incision above your
pelvic bone, removes a small portion of it and
then closes the incision. Fusion. To fuse the
vertebrae together permanently, the surgeon
places the bone graft material between the
vertebrae. Metal plates, screws or rods may be
used to help hold the vertebrae together while
the bone graft heals. In selected cases, some
surgeons use a synthetic substance instead of
bone grafts. These synthetic substances help
promote bone growth and speed the fusion of the
vertebrae.
