What is Spine Surgery?
Share:
Spine surgeryis used to correct problems with the spinal bones (vertebrae), disks, or nerves of the lower back (lumbar spine). The spine consists of bones (vertebrae) separated by soft cushions (disks). Pressure on the nerves that branch off the spinal cord can produce pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness and may be caused by the following:
Injured disks that bulge out (slipped disk) between the vertebrae
Bone injuries (fractures)
Narrowing of the space between vertebrae (spinal stenosis)
Growths (tumors)
Pockets of infection (abscesses)
Pockets of blood (hematomas)
Patients withspinal painin the neck or back are usually treated conservatively beforespine surgeryis considered. Bed rest, traction, anti-inflammatory medications, physical therapy, braces, and exercise are often prescribed.
Spine surgery procedure:
Spine surgeryis done while the patient is under general anesthesia (unconscious and pain-free). An incision is made over the troubled area. The bone that curves around and covers the spinal cord (lamina) is removed (laminectomy) and the tissue that is causing pressure on the nerve or spinal cord is removed. The hole through which the nerve passes may be enlarged to prevent further pressure on the nerve. Sometimes, a piece of bone (bone graft) or metal rods such as Harrington rods may be used to strengthen the area ofspine surgery.
