Fortis Malar Hospital provides specialized Lumbar Decompression with an emphasis on precise nerve decompression, preservation of spinal structures, and personalized recovery support. Established in 1989, the NABH accredited hospital is based in Chennai, India and has 180 beds supported by modern neurosurgical and orthopedic facilities.

Lumbar Decompression involves removing or modifying structures that are narrowing the spinal canal or neural foramina and compressing nerves in the lower back. It may help relieve symptoms associated with lumbar spinal stenosis and other causes of nerve compression when conservative treatment has not provided sufficient relief. The surgeon may remove a portion of the vertebral bone, thickened ligament, or disc material depending on the source of compression. Preoperative imaging helps determine the affected levels, while postoperative care focuses on pain control, mobility, and gradual rehabilitation.
