Spine Surgery in India: Your Path to Pain-Free Living

Herniated Disc

A spinal disc’s inner gel-like material bulges or leaks out, compressing nearby nerves and causing pain, numbness, or sciatica.

Spinal Stenosis

Narrowing of the spinal canal leads to nerve compression, often resulting in pain, tingling, or weakness in the legs or arms.

Scoliosis

A lateral curvature of the spine that may require surgical correction, especially in severe or progressive cases.

Spinal Tumors

Benign or malignant growths in or around the spinal cord that can affect function and require surgical removal.

Degenerative Disc Disease

Age-related wear and tear on spinal discs causing chronic pain, instability, or reduced flexibility.

1. Discectomy

Removes a portion of a herniated disc to relieve pressure on the spinal nerve, often used to treat lumbar disc herniation and sciatica.

2. Laminectomy

Involves removing the lamina (part of the vertebral bone) to decompress nerves in cases of spinal stenosis.

3. Spinal Fusion

Fuses two or more vertebrae to stabilize the spine, used in cases of severe disc degeneration or instability.

4. Artificial Disc Replacement

Replaces a damaged disc with a prosthetic implant to maintain mobility while relieving symptoms of degenerative disc disease.

5. Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS)

Utilizes small incisions and advanced instruments (including robotic assistance), reducing muscle disruption, blood loss, and recovery time.
