Understanding Spine Surgery
What is Spine Surgery?
Spine surgery addresses structural problems in the vertebral column — discs, vertebrae, and the nerves running through them — that cause back pain, leg pain (sciatica), numbness, or weakness. Modern techniques are minimally invasive, preserving muscle integrity and accelerating recovery.
Common procedures include microdiscectomy (removal of herniated disc material pressing on a nerve), laminectomy (widening the spinal canal to relieve stenosis), and spinal fusion (joining two or more vertebrae to stabilise the spine). Minimally invasive techniques use tubular retractors and intraoperative imaging for precision.
When spine surgery may be needed
- Severe leg pain (sciatica) from disc herniation not responding to 6+ weeks of treatment
- Progressive leg weakness or numbness from nerve compression
- Bladder or bowel dysfunction (cauda equina syndrome — emergency)
- Spinal canal stenosis causing walking difficulty
- Spinal instability or fracture requiring stabilisation
