Spine Care

Comprehensive Spine Care

Spine care encompasses a wide range of conditions affecting the vertebral column, spinal cord, and surrounding structures. Modern spine surgery has evolved toward minimally invasive techniques that preserve spinal motion, reduce surgical trauma, and facilitate faster recovery while maintaining or improving neurological outcomes.

Our spine care specialists utilize advanced imaging technologies including MRI, CT myelography, and dynamic X-rays to precisely diagnose spinal pathology. Treatment approaches range from conservative management to complex reconstructive surgery, always tailored to the patient's specific condition and needs.

The spine consists of 33 vertebrae (7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral, and 4 coccygeal) forming a complex biomechanical structure that protects the spinal cord while providing flexibility and support. Pathologies can affect any level, requiring specialized expertise in each region.

Spine Procedures We Offer

• Microdiscectomy

  Minimally invasive removal of herniated disc material compressing spinal nerves. Performed using operating microscope for precise visualization and tissue preservation.

  • Endoscopic vs microscopic techniques
  • Nerve root decompression
  • Minimally invasive tubular retractors
  • Foraminal enlargement procedures

• Spinal Fusion

  Stabilization of abnormal spinal motion through surgical fusion of adjacent vertebrae using bone graft and instrumentation (plates, screws, rods).

  • Anterior vs posterior approach
  • Minimally invasive TLIF/XLIF
  • Instrumented vs non-instrumented fusion
  • Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) use

• Disc Replacement

  Total disc replacement (TDR) preserves spinal motion by replacing damaged intervertebral discs with artificial implants, maintaining physiological biomechanics.

  • Cervical and lumbar disc replacement
  • Motion-preserving technology
  • Metal-on-metal vs metal-on-polyethylene
  • Patient selection criteria

• Scoliosis Correction

  Surgical correction of abnormal spinal curvature using posterior spinal fusion with instrumentation to restore alignment and prevent progression.

  • Idiopathic scoliosis management
  • Pedicle screw instrumentation
  • Surgical approach planning
  • 3D correction techniques

• Spinal Decompression

  Surgical decompression of spinal cord and nerve roots through laminectomy, foraminotomy, or endoscopic decompression for stenosis and neural compression.

  • Central canal stenosis treatment
  • Foraminal stenosis decompression
  • Minimally invasive decompression
  • Endoscopic spinal surgery

• Kyphoplasty & Vertebroplasty

  Minimally invasive procedures for vertebral compression fractures using cement injection to restore height and provide pain relief.

  • Percutaneous balloon kyphoplasty
  • Vertebroplasty for osteoporotic fractures
  • Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement
  • Fracture stabilization
