What is Spine Surgery?
While most of the time physical therapy will do the trick, surgery is often recommended when a greater affect than therapy is needed. Spine surgery is a common treatment for many different spinal conditions. There are a variety of different spine surgeries that can be performed, depending on the condition being treated. Some of the most common spine surgeries include:
- disectomy
- laminectomy
- spinal fusion
Discectomy is a surgery to remove a herniated or ruptured disc. This surgery is often recommended for people with sciatica or back pain caused by a herniated disc.
Laminectomy is a surgery to remove the laminae, or roof of the vertebrae. This surgery is often recommended for people with stenosis, a condition in which the spinal canal becomes narrower and compresses the spinal cord.
Spinal fusion is a surgery to fuse two or more vertebrae together. This surgery is often recommended for people with degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, or spondylolisthesis.
