Spine Surgery (Disc & Spine Procedures)

Spine surgery is performed to treat conditions affecting the spinal bones (vertebrae), intervertebral discs, spinal cord, and nerves when non-surgical treatments no longer provide relief. It is commonly recommended for patients with herniated (slipped) discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, spinal fractures, scoliosis, spinal instability, spondylolisthesis, spinal infections, or spinal tumors. Modern spine surgery includes a range of procedures such as microdiscectomy, laminectomy, spinal fusion, decompression surgery, and minimally invasive spine surgery, depending on the patient's condition.

Your Care Journey

We believe in complete transparency. Here is what you can expect at every step of your procedural journey with our specialized medical team.

Before Surgery

Before surgery, the spine specialist performs a detailed evaluation to determine the most appropriate surgical procedure. The evaluation may include physical and neurological examination, X-rays, MRI or CT scan, blood tests, ECG and anaesthesia fitness assessment. Patients are advised to follow fasting instructions, inform the doctor about medications, stop blood-thinners if advised, and stop smoking.

Day of Surgery

On the day of surgery, the patient receives general anaesthesia. The surgeon performs the planned spine procedure based on the underlying condition, which may involve removing a damaged disc, relieving pressure on compressed nerves, stabilizing the spine with implants, or correcting spinal deformities. The procedure is closed with sutures or staples.

Post Surgery

After surgery, pain management, early mobilization, and rehabilitation are important for a successful recovery. Patients are advised to walk as recommended by the medical team, take prescribed medications, attend physiotherapy sessions, avoid bending, twisting, and heavy lifting, and keep the wound clean.
