Artificial spine lumbar disc replacement is a medical procedure performed to relieve lower back pain. The key focus of this surgery remains on the replacement of spine lumbar vertebrae that exists between the rib cage and the pelvis region.
Lumbar disc replacement helps to lessen lower back pain and restore mobility.
Although the surgery helps to treat low back pain, not everyone is a good candidate for this replacement. After several diagnoses and tests, including general health information, blood tests, spine MRI, CT scan, X-ray and discography, the doctor determines the eligibility of the patient for lumbar disc replacement.
Below are the conditions that possibly suggest a lumbar disc replacement:
Step 1: The doctor provides general anaesthesia. After that, a catheter is placed inside the bladder for easy urination. The whole procedure will be conducted under the supervision of an orthopaedic surgeon and a vascular surgeon.
Step 2. An incision will be made on the abdomen of the patient, and blood vessels and organs will be moved to a side to get access to the spine. This is to ensure that no nerves get moved.
Step 3. The surgeon then removes the degenerated disc only to replace it with an artificial spine lumbar disc. The surgery tends to last for around 2-3 hours.
Step 4. After replacement, the organs will be positioned in their original place. Finally, the incision gets closed to complete the surgery.
The patient needs to stay for at least 2 to 3 days or more in the hospital. Pain relief may be allotted in case of requirement. IV drip and catheter will also be taken out within a few days.
The recovery time would be faster as there is no need for the bone to revive. There is a need for a physical therapist to carry on the exercises for faster recovery and rehabilitation. Plus, regular follow-up is a must post-surgery.
The replacement surgery is performed to treat patients with acute lower back discomfort in the spine lumbar. Surgery is the final call taken when other treatments fail to work.
The success rate of artificial spine lumbar disc replacement surgery is about 95 – 98%.
