Spine Care at Sortho Bone & Joint Clinics

At Sortho Bone & Joint Clinics, we specialize in comprehensive spine care, offering advanced solutions for spine-related disorders, including herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, and more. Our expert spine surgeons are skilled in performing open, minimally invasive (MIS), and endoscopic disc surgeries to treat these conditions effectively, minimizing pain and improving mobility.

Our Spine Care Services Include:

1. Open Disc Surgery

    • Traditional Open Spine Surgery: In cases of severe disc herniation or significant spinal deformities, we offer traditional open spine surgery to remove or repair damaged discs. This method involves a larger incision, allowing for direct access to the spine to perform more complex disc and vertebral repairs.
    • Microdiscectomy: For patients with a herniated disc that presses on a nerve root, this procedure removes the portion of the disc causing the compression, providing relief from symptoms like pain, numbness, and weakness.

2. Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MIS)

    • MIS Disc Surgery: Minimally invasive techniques are used to access the spine through small incisions, reducing tissue damage, post-operative pain, and recovery time. This approach is ideal for conditions like herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, and spinal stenosis.
    • Advantages of MIS: Shorter recovery times, less blood loss, smaller scars, and reduced risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery.

3. Endoscopic Disc Surgery

    • Endoscopic Discectomy: This advanced technique involves the use of a small camera (endoscope) to view the spine through tiny incisions. The surgeon uses specialized instruments to remove the damaged part of the disc, providing targeted treatment with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.
    • Benefits of Endoscopic Surgery: Small incisions, faster recovery, less pain, and the ability to return to normal activities more quickly.

4. Spinal Fusion Surgery

    • Fusion Techniques: In cases where disc degeneration or damage affects the stability of the spine, spinal fusion may be performed to permanently join two or more vertebrae together. We use both traditional and minimally invasive techniques to perform spinal fusion with a focus on reducing recovery time.

5. Artificial Disc Replacement

    • Artificial Disc Surgery: For patients with severely damaged discs, we offer artificial disc replacement surgery as an alternative to spinal fusion. This procedure involves removing the damaged disc and replacing it with an artificial one to maintain normal spine motion while reducing pain.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Open spine surgery involves larger incisions for direct access to the spine, while MIS (Minimally Invasive Surgery) uses smaller incisions to reduce tissue damage, blood loss, and recovery time. Endoscopic spine surgery involves using a small camera and
instruments through tiny incisions for a highly targeted, minimally invasive procedure.

Your spine surgeon will assess your condition using advanced imaging techniques (X-ray, MRI, CT scans) and recommend the most appropriate surgical approach based on the severity of your symptoms, overall health, and specific spine condition.

Recovery times vary depending on the type of surgery performed. Minimally invasive surgeries typically offer quicker recovery times, with patients often returning to light activities within a few weeks. Open spine surgeries may require longer recovery periods, often ranging from 6 to 12 weeks.

As with any surgery, there are potential risks, including infection, nerve injury, and blood clots. However, our experienced spine surgeons use the latest techniques and technologies to minimize these risks and ensure the best outcomes for each patient.

Yes, physical therapy is often recommended after spine surgery to help strengthen the muscles around the spine, improve mobility, and reduce the risk of future injuries. Your therapist will design a personalized rehab program to support your recovery.
