Surgical
Treatments involving surgery
Surgery on the spine is carried out if the complaints cannot be sustainably relieved with conservative treatment, if interventional pain therapy is not achieving a satisfactory improvement or if severe symptoms mean that an immediate operation is required.
Cervical spine
We treat:
Decompression of nerves, e.g. in the event of a slipped disc or narrowing of the spinal canal (cervical decompression) via access from the front (anterior) or rear (posterior Frykholm operation)
Cervical spinal disc replacements
Stabilisation in the event of wear, misalignment, vertebral body fracture, inflammation, tumours
Vertebral body replacement in the event of wear, misalignment, vertebral body fracture, inflammation
Corrective surgery in the event of misalignments
Thoracic spine
We treat:
Decompression of nerves in the thoracic spine, e.g. in the event of a slipped disc or narrowing of the spinal canal via lateral or posterior access
Stabilisation in the event of wear, misalignment, vertebral body fracture, inflammation, tumours
Vertebral body replacement in the event of wear, misalignment, vertebral body fracture, inflammation
Corrective surgery in the event of misalignments
Minimally invasive insertion of bone cement in the event of tumour/fracture (vertebroplasty/kyphoplasty)
Neuromodulation (SCS probe)
Lumbar spine
We treat:
Decompression of the lumbar spine in the event of compressed nerves, e.g. in the event of a slipped disc or narrowing of the spinal canal (lumbar decompression)
Stabilisation in the event of wear, misalignment, vertebral body fracture, inflammation, tumours
Vertebral body replacement in the event of wear, misalignment, vertebral body fracture, inflammation
Corrective surgery in the event of misalignments
Therapy via anterior, lateral and posterior access.
Minimally invasive insertion of bone cement in the event of tumour/fracture (vertebroplasty/kyphoplasty)
Neuromodulation (SCS probe)
