Spinal decompression and fusion surgery is a specialized procedure performed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves and stabilize the spine. Dr. Pavan Badugu, a renowned neurosurgeon at Andhra Prime Hospital, is an expert in this field, with over 10 years of experience in treating complex spinal conditions. His proficiency in performing advanced neurosurgical procedures, including minimally invasive spine surgeries, makes him a trusted name for patients seeking effective and safe spinal treatments.
Spinal decompression is a procedure aimed at alleviating nerve compression, which can result from herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. During the surgery, Dr. Pavan carefully removes the portions of bone or tissue that are compressing the nerves, providing relief from pain, numbness, and weakness.
Spinal fusion is often performed in conjunction with decompression to stabilize the spine. This involves joining two or more vertebrae together using bone grafts, screws, and rods. The fusion process prevents abnormal movement and reduces pain caused by spinal instability.
At Andhra Prime Hospital, Dr. Pavan Badugu employs cutting-edge technology and precision techniques to ensure optimal patient outcomes. He specializes in navigation-guided spine surgeries, which enhance accuracy and reduce the risk of complications. This advanced technology enables real-time imaging and mapping, allowing for precise placement of implants and minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.
Additionally, Dr. Pavan offers minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) options whenever possible. These techniques involve smaller incisions, reduced tissue disruption, and faster recovery times, allowing patients to return to their daily activities sooner.
Dr. Pavan Badugu performs spinal decompression and fusion surgery to treat a variety of spinal conditions, including:
Herniated discs: Relieving nerve compression by removing the damaged disc portion.
Spinal stenosis: Expanding the narrowed spinal canal to reduce pressure on the nerves.
