what is Cervical Spine Surgery

Cervical spine surgery focuses on treating problems in the neck region of your spine, which includes the first seven vertebrae. Conditions like cervical spondylosis, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, or injuries can cause severe neck pain, numbness, weakness, and difficulty in daily activities. When conservative treatments such as medications, physiotherapy, and lifestyle modifications fail to provide relief, surgical intervention becomes necessary to improve your quality of life.

Common Conditions Requiring Cervical Spine Surgery

Herniated Disc
– When the disc between two vertebrae bulges or ruptures, it can compress spinal nerves, leading to pain, tingling, and weakness in the arms.
Degenerative Disc Disease
– Age-related changes can lead to disc degeneration, causing chronic neck pain and reduced mobility.
Spinal Stenosis
– Narrowing of the spinal canal puts pressure on the spinal cord and nerves, resulting in pain, numbness, or difficulty walking.
Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy
– Compression of the spinal cord due to arthritis and disc degeneration can lead to loss of hand function, balance issues, and bladder or bowel problems.
Trauma or Fractures
– Accidents causing vertebral fractures may require surgical stabilisation to prevent spinal cord injury.

Types of Cervical Spine Surgeries Performed

At Khobragade Multispeciality Hospital, our expert spine surgeons perform advanced surgical techniques tailored to each patient’s condition:

Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF)
– The most common procedure where the damaged disc is removed from the front of the neck, and adjacent vertebrae are fused for stability.
Posterior Cervical Laminectomy
– Removes part of the vertebra (lamina) to relieve pressure on the spinal cord and nerves.
Cervical Disc Replacement
– The damaged disc is replaced with an artificial disc, maintaining neck movement and reducing stress on adjacent discs.
Cervical Corpectomy
– Removal of part of the vertebra and disc to decompress the spinal cord, followed by fusion.

Procedure Overview

Preoperative Evaluation
– Comprehensive assessment including neurological examination, MRI, or CT scans to plan the surgery accurately.
During Surgery
– Performed under general anaesthesia with advanced monitoring for safety. Duration varies based on procedure complexity.
Postoperative Care
– Hospital stay of 2-3 days in most cases.
– Pain management, physiotherapy, and gradual return to activities are planned for optimal recovery.
