Postero Lateral Spinal Fusion PLF
Postero Lateral Spinal Fusion | Spine Care Bangalore
Postero-Lateral spinal fusion (PLF)
Posterolateral lumbar fusion is a spine surgery that involves placing a bone graft between elements in the back, or posterior, of the spine, leaving the disc space intact. The procedure may be performed using minimally invasive surgical techniques.
Why choose Manipal Hospitals
Our team of spine surgeons employ the latest minimally accessible route to perform this procedure. Typically in this kind of fusion, metal screws and rods are placed to impart immediate stability while the bone mends and to increase the fusion rate. PLF is commonly performed for a variety of spinal conditions, such as spondylolisthesis, spinal fractures, tumours, infections, and scoliosis, among others.
Success rate
The success rate is 85-96% good to excellent results from PLF surgery. Most patients are noted to have a significant improvement in their back pain and return to most of their normal activities.
Experience world-class healthcare at Manipal Hospitals. Our expert team of doctors and state-of-the-art facilities ensure personalized and advanced treatments. Take the first step towards wellness. Book an appointment today.
