Spine Surgery (Spinal Fusion)

## Spinal Fusion Surgery in India Spinal fusion is a surgical procedure that permanently connects two or more vertebrae in the spine, eliminating motion between them. It is used to treat a variety of conditions including degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, and fractures. India's spine surgery programmes are among the most advanced in Asia, offering both open and minimally invasive approaches. ### Cutting-Edge Spine Care Indian hospitals offer the latest in spine surgery technology, including robotic-assisted surgery (Mazor X, ExcelsiusGPS), intraoperative 3D navigation, and minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF). These technologies reduce tissue damage, blood loss, and hospital stay while improving accuracy of screw placement and fusion rates. ### Comprehensive Rehabilitation Post-operative rehabilitation is a critical component of spinal fusion recovery. Indian hospitals provide in-house physiotherapy and rehabilitation programmes, along with pain management specialists. Most patients begin mobilisation within 24 hours of surgery, with full recovery expected over 3–6 months.
