cervical-spinal-fusion

Cervical spinal fusion is a surgical operation that joins certain bones in the neck (cervical spine). A cervical spinal fusion can be done in several ways:

Bone can be obtained from other body regions or purchased from a bone bank (a bone graft). The bone is utilized to connect adjacent vertebrae, and the bone transplant promotes the development of new bone. Artificial fusion materials can also be used.

  • Metal implants can hold the vertebrae together until new bone grows.
  • Metal plates can be screwed into the bone to join adjacent vertebrae.
  • When a whole vertebra is removed, the spine might be united.
  • When a spinal disc is removed, the surrounding vertebrae might be reconnected.

This procedure can be done through an incision on the anterior or posterior of the neck.

Why Do You Require Cervical spinal fusion Surgery?

If medications, physical therapy, and other therapies (such as steroid injections) have not alleviated your back pain, this surgery may be possible. Doctors usually only recommend it if they know exactly what’s wrong.

If your back discomfort is caused by one of the following, spinal fusion may help you feel better:

  • The disease of the degenerative disc (the space between discs narrows; sometimes they rub together spaces)
  • Fracture (broken spinal bone)
  • Scoliosis is a condition in which your spine slopes excessively to one side.
  • Stenosis of the spine (narrowing of the spinal canal)
  • Spondylolisthesis (forward shifting of a spinal disc)
  • Tumours or inflammation of the spine

Cervical spinal fusion surgery

The operation can be performed on either the front or back of the vertebra or a combination of both. Instead of a bone graft in front or anterior fusion, the disc material is removed and replaced with either bone from another body area or an artificial cage containing bone graft or synthetic bone. Although the new material can be fit between the remaining vertebrae, utilizing metal implants to anchor the transplant will speed up the fusion process.

A cervical laminectomy is performed in conjunction with back or posterior fusion, but screws and rods are placed in the lateral mass or facet joints, the bones on the sides of the spine. A bone graft is inserted near the screws to help the fusion process.

Risk factors & Complications:

Every surgery has some level of risk. This type of procedure has been associated with the following:

  • Bleeding
  • Clots in the blood
  • Infection
  • Pain
  • Anesthesia Risks

Other potential issues are as follows:

Nerve damage causes numbness and tingling in the legs. You may lose movement, but this is uncommon.

Pseudarthrosis: The fusion does not always work. Your back pain may return after a few months. Complications of donor bone grafts include infection and tissue rejection.

Recovery from Spinal Fusion

You will be in the hospital for several days following surgery. How long depends on various factors, including your overall fitness level and whether you have any underlying medical concerns. The average stay is four days. You could be able to leave sooner, or you might have to stay for approximately a week.

During this period, you will be hooked to machines that monitor your heart and ensure your body is in good working order. You’ll also be attached to a slew of tubes:

An IV is a tube inserted into your arm to deliver fluids, antibiotics, and sometimes pain relievers. Some people receive pain medications via a tube in the back. This is known as an epidural catheter

This surgery is recommended for patients experiencing chronic neck pain, nerve compression, or instability due to conditions like herniated discs, arthritis, trauma, or spinal deformities that have not responded to conservative treatments.

The surgeon removes the damaged disc or bone between the vertebrae and inserts a bone graft or implant. Over time, the bones fuse together, creating a single, stable unit. This can be done through the front (anterior) or back (posterior) of the neck.

Recovery typically takes 4 to 6 weeks for light activities, but complete bone fusion may take several months. Full recovery depends on the patient’s condition and the number of vertebrae fused.

There may be some loss of flexibility in the neck at the fused segments, but most patients retain good overall motion and function, especially if only one or two levels are fused.

Possible risks include infection, bleeding, nerve damage, difficulty swallowing, hardware failure, and failed fusion (non-union). However, serious complications are rare.
