About the Spinal Fusion

Spinal fusion surgery is a type of spinal procedure used to join two or more bones permanently in the spine and to prevent movement between them. The bones that are joined are called vertebrae. Spinal fusion surgery is performed along with other surgical procedures such as foraminotomy or laminectomy and after diskectomy in the neck. It is required if the patient has an injury or a fracture of the vertebrae. The spine will become weak due to an infection or tumors. Spinal fusion is also performed in abnormal curvatures that result from scoliosis or kyphosis.

Why is spinal fusion surgery required

Spinal fusion is a procedure that links two or more bones in the spine to enhance stability, address issues, or alleviate pain. It can be employed for various purposes:

Reshaping the Spine: Spinal fusion helps correct spine formation abnormalities, such as sideways curvature (scoliosis).

Addressing Weakness or Instability: When excessive movement between two spinal bones causes instability, often due to severe arthritis, spinal fusion makes the spine more secure.

Dealing with Damaged Disks: After removing a damaged disk, spinal fusion may stabilize the spine and promote overall structural integrity.

How is Spinal Fusion performed?

During spinal fusion, surgeons perform the procedure while the patient is under general anesthesia. The specific technique used depends on factors like the location of the spinal bones to be fused, the purpose of the fusion, and the individual's overall health.

Here's an overview of the process:

  • Accessing the Spine: Surgeons make incisions in one of three areas: either on the back directly over the spine, on the sides of the spine, or in the stomach area or throat when accessing the spine from the front.
  • Preparing the Bone Graft: The bone graft, sourced from a bone bank or the patient's own body (typically the pelvis), is readied for the procedure. In some cases, surgeons may opt for synthetic materials instead of bone grafts. If using the patient's bone, a small portion is removed near the pelvic bone.
  • Fusion: The surgeon places the bone graft material between the spinal bones, facilitating the fusion process. Metal plates, screws, or rods may be utilized to stabilize and support the bones during the healing of the bone graft.

Recovery from Spinal Fusion

Following spinal fusion surgery, patients typically stay in the hospital for two to three days. While some pain and discomfort may be experienced, effective medication management is usually provided. Once at home, promptly contact your doctor if signs of infection arise, such as redness, swelling, wound drainage, shaking chills, or a fever exceeding 100.4°F (38°C).

The healing and fusion of the affected spinal bones may take several months. Your doctor might recommend wearing a brace temporarily to maintain proper spinal alignment. Additionally, physical therapy can guide you in adopting movements and postures that support the correct alignment of your spine.

Discectomy: It is also a decompression surgery, herniated disc surgery, microdiscectomy, and percutaneous discectomy. In these types of spine surgery abnormal or damaged disc is removed which is compressing the nerves. Discectomy surgery is performed to treat leg weakness and numbness, herniated or ruptured disc and relieve pressure on the nerve or spinal cord. Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty: Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty are a similar spinal procedure, in which bone cement is injected through a tiny hole into a fractural vertebra.
