Types of Spine Surgery:

• Discectomy : This procedure involves removing a portion of a herniated or ruptured disc that is pressing on a spinal nerve. It is commonly used to treat conditions like herniated discs or sciatica.
• Laminectomy: A laminectomy entails the removal of the lamina (the bony arch of the vertebra) to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. It is often performed to treat spinal stenosis.
• Spinal Fusion: Spinal fusion joins two or more vertebrae together using bone grafts or artificial materials. It is employed to stabilize the spine in cases of spinal instability, spondylolisthesis, or after disc removal.
• Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty : These minimally invasive procedures are used to treat vertebral compression fractures by stabilizing the affected vertebrae with bone cement.
• Disc Replacement Surgery : Artificial disc replacement surgery involves removing a damaged disc and replacing it with an artificial disc. This procedure aims to preserve motion in the spine and relieve pain.
• Scoliosis Surgery : Surgical correction of spinal deformities like scoliosis involves the use of rods, screws, and bone grafts to straighten and stabilize the spine.
• Microdiscectomy : A minimally invasive procedure to remove a herniated disc using a small incision and specialized instruments.
