SPINAL FUSION Spinal fusion (spondylodesis or spondylosyndesis) is the surgical method of joining two or more verebrae. It is done most commonly in the lumbar region of the spine, but it is also used to treat cervical and thoracic problems. In this procedure, the damaged and painful vertebrae are fused into a solid mass of stable bone. Fusion of the spine is used primarily to eliminate the pain caused by abnormal motion of the vertebrae by immobilizing the faulty vertebrae themselves, which is usually caused by degenerative conditions. However, spinal fusion is also the preferred way to treat most spinal deformities, specifically scoliosis and kyphosis (which cause abnormal curvature of the spine). But, the results may vary according to the individual. Some may not feel any improvement in their back pain even after the surgery. Your doctor will decide whether you need the surgery after conducting a few tests, including imaging tests such as X-rays, MRIs and CTs.
