What diseases is spinal surgery focused on?

At MDI Clinic, specialists have successfully treated the following problems with such medical methods:

• herniated discs;
• scoliosis;
• spinal canal stenosis;
• spinal cancer.

Depending on the disease, its stage and individual characteristics of a particular patient, different approaches and techniques are used.

Spinal surgeries for spinal herniation.

MDI Clinic utilizes minimally invasive interventions to treat hernias. Discectomy surgery involves the complete or partial removal of damaged discs. The procedure is performed through a puncture, the diameter of which is no more than two to three centimeters. Endoscopic surgical instruments are brought through the opening using a telescopic tube. In some situations, the removed disc is replaced with an implant so that the flexibility of the spine is maintained.

Partial bulging of the intervertebral disc is also addressed using a minimally invasive method. Puncture or cauterization of the disc is done through a puncture with a special game. Puncture involves pumping out the contents of the disc, while cauterization involves heating with ultrasound waves.

The main advantage of this method of intervention is a shorter recovery period and reduced risk of complications. After all, in the traditional way of carrying out operations, the length of the incision is about ten centimeters.

Addressing spinal canal stenosis at MDI Clinic

This condition usually develops in people over the age of 60. The problem entails back pain, difficulty walking, and urinary incontinence. MRI or multispiral computed tomography can diagnose the disease.

Critical stages of spinal canal stenosis involve surgical intervention to resolve the problem. The type of surgery is chosen depending on the specific spine, as well as the condition of the patient. Minor invasive x-ray-guided surgeries involve the use of stabilizing constructs. The bone graft is taken from the patient’s pelvic or other bones.

This surgical intervention for spinal canal stenosis has a high level of efficiency, up to 80%.

Spinal cancer

Malignant spinal cord tumors in most cases involve treatment with surgery. The main specificity of such procedures is electrophysiologic control to avoid disturbance of spinal cord function.

The goal of the surgery is to remove the tumor and several vertebrae and replace them with artificial implants. If it is necessary to remove metastases, surgical intervention is performed in conjunction with a radiosurgical procedure.
