Types of Spine Surgery at OP Chaudhary Healthcare
At OP Chaudhary Healthcare, we offer a range of advanced spine surgery procedures to help alleviate pain and restore mobility. Here’s a closer look at the most common spine surgeries we perform, each designed to address specific issues affecting the spine.
Discectomy
Discectomy is a procedure aimed at relieving pressure on the spinal nerves caused by a herniated disc. When a disc in your spine becomes damaged or bulges out, it can press on the nerves, leading to pain, numbness, or weakness. During a discectomy, our surgeons remove the portion of the disc that is causing the problem. This procedure is often recommended when conservative treatments like medication or physical therapy haven’t provided enough relief. By removing the problematic disc material, we can help reduce pain and improve your quality of life.
Laminectomy Surgery
Laminectomy is a surgery designed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. It involves removing a small section of the vertebra called the lamina. This part of the vertebra can sometimes cause pressure on the spinal cord or nerves due to conditions like spinal stenosis, where the spinal canal narrows. By removing this portion, we can create more space for the spinal cord and nerves, which can help reduce symptoms like pain, numbness, or weakness in the legs or arms.
Spinal Fusion
Spinal fusion is a procedure used to stabilize the spine by joining two or more vertebrae together. This surgery is often recommended for conditions that cause the spine to become unstable, such as degenerative disc disease or severe spinal arthritis. The goal of spinal fusion is to eliminate the movement between the affected vertebrae, which can help reduce pain and prevent further damage. During the procedure, the vertebrae are fused together using a combination of bone grafts, screws, and rods.
Microdiscectomy
Microdiscectomy is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove herniated disc material that is pressing on the nerves. Unlike traditional discectomy, which may require a larger incision, microdiscectomy is performed through a smaller incision using special instruments and advanced imaging techniques. This approach helps reduce recovery time and minimize surgical risks. It’s often recommended for patients with a herniated disc that hasn’t responded well to non-surgical treatments.
Disc Replacement Surgery
Also known as spinal disc replacement, this surgery involves replacing a damaged disc in the spine with an artificial one. The goal is to maintain normal spinal function and reduce pain. This procedure is an alternative to spinal fusion and is typically recommended for patients who have severe disc degeneration but still have a healthy spine otherwise. By replacing the damaged disc, we can help restore movement and alleviate pain.
Kyphoplasty Surgery
Kyphoplasty is a procedure used to treat vertebral fractures, often caused by osteoporosis. During this surgery, a small balloon is inserted into the fractured vertebra and inflated to restore its height. Once the vertebra is in the correct position, bone cement is injected to stabilize the spine. This procedure can help relieve pain and restore the height of the vertebra, improving overall spinal function
Endoscopic Spine Surgery
Endoscopic spine surgery is a minimally invasive technique that uses a small camera (endoscope) to guide the surgery through tiny incisions. This approach allows us to perform the surgery with minimal disruption to the surrounding tissues. It can be used for various procedures, including discectomy and laminectomy. The benefits of endoscopic surgery include shorter recovery times and reduced risk of complications.
Spine Decompression
Spine decompression techniques are used to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. This can be achieved through several procedures, including laminectomy and discectomy. The goal of spine decompression is to alleviate symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness by creating more space for the spinal cord and nerves. These procedures can significantly improve your comfort and mobility.
