Laminectomy & Fusion (Spine Fixation)

Relieving Pressure, Restoring Stability

Are you struggling with chronic back pain, leg numbness, or difficulty walking caused by spinal stenosis or a slipped disc? If medications and physiotherapy haven’t helped, Laminectomy & Fusion could offer the relief you need.

This surgery is a proven way to remove pressure on spinal nerves and stabilize the spine, helping you return to a pain-free and active life.

What is a Laminectomy?

A laminectomy involves removing a portion of the vertebra called the lamina, which forms the back part of the spinal canal. This creates more space for the spinal cord and nerves, reducing pain, numbness, and weakness.

Why is Fusion Done?

Once the pressure is relieved, spinal fusion is done to stabilize the affected segment. In this step, bone grafts, rods, and screws are used to fuse two or more vertebrae together, preventing abnormal movement that causes pain.

When Do You Need Laminectomy & Fusion?

This surgery may be recommended for:

  • Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)

  • Degenerative disc disease

  • Herniated discs with instability

  • Spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebra)

  • Spinal fractures or tumors
