Spine surgery is one of the most complex and complicated medical procedures performed to manage the wide spectrum of spinal diseases and abnormalities of the spine and spinal cord. Spinal surgery is usually performed for following three purposes:
- To reduce deformity
- To stabilize a painful segment
- To decompress the nerves of spinal cord
The cost of spine surgery in India is almost a sixth of the cost of spine surgery in USA, UK or Europe even with finest quality implants, prosthesis and consumables.

Overview
There can be several reasons for one to seek spine surgery when other interventions like medications and exercises have not been successful.
Normal Function Prevented
Advancing age decreases the proper functioning and mobility of the spine that hinders body's normal functioning. This can be improved with spinal surgery.
Failure of Other Treatments
Non-surgical interventions such as physiotherapy, medication and exercises are not always successful in alleviating painful symptoms. Spine surgery can be the solution to such patients.
Quality of Life
The symptoms of spine problems like mobility limitations and pain can be a great disadvantage to the patients and prevent them from living a normal and happy life. Spinal surgery can relieve these symptoms forever in most cases and give a good quality of life.
Injury
In cases of severe injury there is least chance of successful treatment with other methods other than spinal surgery.
Deformity
Spinal deformities like scoliosis and other such deformities unless treated very early with physiotherapy and braces cannot be corrected without spinal surgery at later stages.
Nerve Damage
Spinal problems can lead to nerve damage and permanent disability unless the nerve is decompressed and corrected through surgery to relieve the symptoms.
Progression of Spinal Problems
Spinal conditions such as osteoporosis and nerve symptoms worsen with time unless treated properly. Progression can lead to disability, increased symptoms and complete shut-down of organ systems.
