Spinal Fusion Surgery
Spinal surgery may be considered only after conservative therapy fails to adequately relieve the symptoms over a substantial period of time. Spinal fusion is the surgical technique of combining two or more vertebrae.
Fusion of the vertebrae involves insertion of secondary bone tissue obtained either through auto graft (tissues from the same patient) or allograft (tissues from another person) to support the bone healing process, along with spinal stabilisation.
