Artificial Spine Lumbar Disc Replacement

Artificial Spine Lumbar Disc Replacement

Spinal discs are located between the bones or vertebrae of the spine and act as cushions or shock absorbers for the vertebrae. The discs also contribute to the flexibility and motion of the spinal column. The discs consist of two parts:

·         The inner portion which is a soft material

·         The outer portion which is a stronger, fibrous material

Disks can weaken and develop tears or cracks in the outer portion either from an injury, accident or resulting in degenerative disc disease due to aging. Additionally, the inner portion may bulge out and press against the outer portion, resulting in pain. The purpose of artificial spine lumbar disk replacement is to replace the worn-out disk while also preserving the spine’s motion.

A lumbar disk replacement is a type of spine surgery. The spine is made up of bones called vertebrae that are stacked on top of each other. Disks between the vertebrae work like cushions that allow the vertebrae to rotate and move without rubbing against each other. Lumbar disk replacement involves replacing a degenerated disk mainly in the lower part of the spine with an artificial disk composed of either metal or a combination of metal and plastic both.

 


 


More About Treatment

What Makes You Eligible For Disk Replacement?

  • The back pain occurs in only 1 or 2 disks of the lower spine
  • No other joint disease or compression on the nerves of your spine
  • Not excessively overweight
  • No previous spinal surgery
  • Do not have scoliosis or any spinal deformity

Following a disk replacement, it is likely that you will stay in the hospital for 1 to 3 days. However, the length of your stay will depend upon factors such as level of pain and mobility functions.

A lumbar disc replacement success rate is usually high and in most cases, patients are encouraged to stand and walk after the first day of surgery as this practice often leads to quicker rehabilitation and recovery.
