How Does the Procedure of Cervical Spine Surgery India Works?

Decompression with Fusion is a surgical procedure in which the surgeon will remove those tissues that are pressing against the patient’s spinal cord and this surgery is performed depending on where the tissue is being compressed. The surgeon will use the front (anterior) or back (posterior) approach to treat the condition of the patient’s spine.

To begin with the procedure the surgeon will give the general anesthesia to a patient and then they make around 2 inches of the incision on the right or left side of the patient’s neck. After that, the surgeon will locate the damaged disc by using a fluoroscope and a thin needle which will be inserted to locate the damaged disc so that the surgeon will easily remove the damaged disc that causes pain. Also, the surgeons at the hospitals under Spine Surgery India remove bone spurs which are compressing the nerves.

The spinal cord of the patient gets decompressed after the removal of the disc annulus and nucleus. The spine surgeon will start the preparations for bone graft fusion and they will properly introduce the bone graft into the space between the patient’s vertebrae by using the metal plates and screws to keep the graft in place.

The spine surgeon can also place an artificial disc into the dis space instead of fusion or graft and then they closed and dressed the incisions properly.
