The Madras Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology provides specialized Thoracic Interbody Fusion with an emphasis on restoring thoracic spinal stability, maintaining alignment, and supporting long-term fusion. Established in 1999, the JCI, NABH accredited hospital is based in Chennai, India and has 1000 beds supported by modern neurosurgical and orthopedic facilities.

Thoracic Interbody Fusion involves removing a damaged thoracic intervertebral disc and placing a structural implant between the adjacent vertebrae. Bone graft material is added to facilitate the formation of a solid fusion between the vertebral bodies. Depending on the patient's diagnosis, the procedure may also include decompression of the spinal cord or nerves and posterior fixation with screws and rods. Preoperative MRI, CT, and X-rays help assess spinal alignment, disc damage, bone quality, and the structures requiring treatment.
