Surgical treatment

Neurosurgeons with rich clinical experience at the Spine Center of Wellton Hospital perform surgery with speed, accuracy and less pain. They are highly competent to perform surgery by utilizing the most up-to-date surgical techniques with the state-of-the-art equipment.

• Minimal incision fusion

  Posterior arch behind spine bone is cut to remove damaged bone or ligament tissue that presses on nerves. Spine joints at top and bottom are connected and fixed with screws to keep spine stability.

  Application

  spondylolisthesis, spinal canal stenosis, spondylolsis

• Minimally invasive micrographic surgery

  Surgical target area is enlarged by 20 times to remove ligament and joints that press on nerves. Surgery lasts for just 40 minutes and only 2cm is incised with minimal invasion, which makes nerve adhesion less likely.

  Application

  herniation disk(herniation of intervertebral disk), spondylolisthesis, spinal canal stenosis, spondylolsis

• Minimally invasive biportal endoscopic surgery

  Two small holes are pierced in both directions to insert endoscopy on one and surgical tool on the other. This allows delicate movement unlike unilateral endoscopic surgery and site of lesion can be removed with greater accuracy.

  Application

  herniation disk (herniation of intervertebral disk), spondylolisthesis, spinal canal stenosis, spondylolsis
