Overview

Spinal fixation (instrumented spinal fusion) uses titanium screws, rods, cages, and plates to stabilise one or more spinal segments, preventing movement that causes pain or neurological risk. It is indicated for vertebral fractures, spondylolisthesis (slippage of one vertebra over another), spinal instability after disc or tumour surgery, degenerative scoliosis, and failed disc surgery (FBSS). At Medanta Hospital, Noida, Dr. Yashpal Singh Bundela (MCh Neurosurgery) performs posterior pedicle screw fixation, anterior interbody fusion (ALIF), and minimally invasive transforaminal fusion (MIS-TLIF).

Symptoms

Title
Spondylolisthesis
back pain with or without bilateral leg pain and neurogenic claudication
Title
Vertebral fractures
acute severe back pain after trauma or compression fracture in osteoporosis
Title
Failed back surgery syndrome
persistent or recurrent back and leg pain after previous disc surgery
Title
Progressive scoliosis causing pain and neurological symptoms

Treatments

Title
Posterior pedicle screw and rod fixation
Title
Minimally invasive TLIF (MIS-TLIF)
minimally invasive interbody fusion
Title
ALIF (anterior lumbar interbody fusion)
Title
Vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty for osteoporotic compression fractures
Title
Neuronavigation-guided pedicle screw placement for accuracy

FAQ
Is spinal fusion permanent?

Spinal fusion creates a permanent bony union between vertebrae, eliminating movement at the fused levels. The titanium instrumentation (screws, rods) provides immediate stability while the bone graft integrates over 3–12 months. Once solid fusion is achieved, the metal implants can be left in place permanently in most cases.

Does spinal fusion limit mobility?

Fusing one or two spinal levels causes minimal detectable movement restriction in daily life. The unfused segments compensate. Multi-level fusion (4+ levels) can reduce flexibility more significantly. Dr. Bundela at Team Sushrut uses the minimum number of levels required and preserves adjacent segments where possible.

What is minimally invasive spinal fusion?

MIS-TLIF (minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion) uses small (1.5–2 cm) incisions and tubular dilators to access the spine without extensively stripping the back muscles. This reduces post-operative pain, blood loss, and hospital stay (typically 2–3 days vs 5–7 for open fusion) and speeds return to activity.

Is spinal fixation surgery available in Noida?
