Spine Surgery

Spine surgery refers to procedures performed to relieve pressure on spinal nerves, stabilise the spine, correct deformity, or treat infections, fractures, or tumours. Modern spine surgery has evolved significantly. Today, many procedures are minimally invasive, focusing on precise treatment of the problem area while preserving normal muscles and movement as much as possible. The goal is not just pain relief, but restoring mobility, function, and quality of life safely.

Spine surgery may be advised for a range of conditions, including:

• Degenerative spine disorders such as cervical or lumbar spondylosis, slipped discs, spinal stenosis, and spondylolisthesis
• Nerve-related pain like sciatica, radiculopathy, or neurogenic claudication
• Spinal deformities, including scoliosis and kyphosis, in adolescents or adults
• Spinal fractures, especially osteoporotic compression fractures or traumatic instability
• Spinal infections, including tuberculosis of the spine
• Spinal tumours, both primary and metastatic, require decompression or stabilisation

Consult the best orthopedists in Navi Mumbai at UMC Hospitals for complete evaluation and treatment.

Management of spine deformities, as well as age-related spinal conditions, needs a detailed multidisciplinary approach. At UMC Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, treatment decisions are guided by the severity of deformity, symptoms, age, bone health, and impact on daily function. Our team always recommends patients with non-invasive and non-surgical options wherever possible.

Non-surgical care includes:

• Targeted therapies and standardised pain control with safety measurements and tapering when indicated.
• Physiotherapy: This involves core strengthening, flexibility, posture retraining, and Bracing and activity modification procedures for the preservation of healing and prevention of flare-ups.
• Interventional pain management, as needed, can include epidural steroid injections, selective nerve root blocks, facet joint injections, and medial branch blocks.

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery includes:

• Cervical procedures: ACDF (anterior cervical discectomy and fusion), cervical disc replacement (select patients), posterior foraminotomy
• Lumbar procedures: microdiscectomy, decompression (laminotomy/laminectomy),
• Options for preserving motion as well as focused treatments to maintain function in instances of nerve compression.
• Endoscopic spine surgery on selected disc and stenosis patients to reduce tissue damage and promote rapid recovery.
