Spine Surgery

Spinal surgery consists of performing surgery to correct possible structural abnormalities of spine.

Back injuries, and more specifically those of the spine, have become a problem that is affecting more and more people around the world. The passing of the years, accidents, overexertion and bad posture in everyday life are the causes of the problem.

Spine surgery allows surgeons to decompress, move and fix vertebral structures, and replace them if necessary. Back surgery is an option to consider when conservative treatments have not worked and the pain remains persistent and prevents the development of a normal life.

There are several types of spine surgery:

  • Discectomy: This involves removing the herniated part of the disc to access the swollen nerve and relieve its irritation.
  • Laminectomy: The bone covering the neural tissue.
  • Fusion: Spinal fusion consists mainly of joining two or more bones of the spine together. This can relieve pain by giving stability to a fracture or simply to eliminate the pain that begins with the movement of the vertebrae, which can degenerate or injure some of the vertebral discs.
