Spinal Fusion Tijuana

Back pain? Spinal fusion in Tijuana is a surgical procedure whereby two or more vertebrae are joined. It can be performed at any spine level; it seeks to avoid movement between them and ensure that the vertebrae are permanently connected to reduce pain.

GET STARTED TODAY

This intervention aims to provide greater stability to the spine, avoid stretching the nerves, or perform some correction in a deformity caused by a congenital or degenerative disease. In this procedure, bone graft from the same patient or donor, plates, screws, or metal bars can be used to support the vertebrae, thus creating a solid union.

Spinal Fusion Surgery Candidates

Both young and old can become good candidates for a spinal fusion in Tijuana, as long as they are in good overall health. An experienced surgeon will also assess the condition of the bones and the severity of the damage. But in general, this surgery is recommended in cases such as the following:

  • Deformities

This procedure is recommended for people who have scoliosis, where the spine suffers a progressive deformity. Deviations of the spine can cause limitation of movement and chronic pain.

  • Weak spine

A person's bone structure can weaken, causing instability or abnormal movements between the vertebrae. Such is the case for those with severe arthritis in the spine, where it is necessary to stabilize some specific vertebrae points.

  • Fractures

Damage from accidents or trauma can lead to fractures or injuries that affect the vertebrae's movement. In some cases, spinal fusion is a procedure that can help reverse the damage.

  • Disc hernias

There are cartilaginous shock absorbers between vertebrae called discs, which can suffer wear creating pain, numbness, or weakness in arms and legs.

Spine procedures

When it comes to the spine, spinal fusion surgery can be scary. However, this is a fairly common process in orthopedics, as it is used to correct problems in small bones with a minimally invasive and safe procedure. In fact, in some cases, it can be done laparoscopically, avoiding an open incision.

Medical tourism in Tijuana offers effective and safe treatments. Even so, the possibilities of risks can increase or decrease depending on each person's health conditions, if they suffer from chronic diseases or the area of the spine to be corrected. Like any surgery, it has its own risks, no matter how healthy a person may seem. In the case of spinal fusion, the most common complications are:

  • Poor healing
  • Infection
  • Bleeding
  • blood clots
  • Nerve damage
  • blood vessel injury
  • Pain where the graft was taken
  • Reaction to anesthesia
  • Swelling or tenderness
