The Center is active in the treatment of different Spinal Pathologies :
- acute and chronic vertebral trauma,
2. post-traumatic deformities,
3. para-quadriplegic patients (spinal problems, Heterotopic Ossifications……) ,
4. degenerative pathologies :
Diagnosis of "discogenic pain",
|
Herniated lumbar and cervical disc pathology, | |
|
Degenerative disc desease, |
|
"Failed Back Syndrome" |
** From 1998 Disc Prosthesis was applied in rigid selected cases with good results.
5. Congenital, Juvenile and Adult Scoliosis/Kyphosis correction with anterior or posterior approach.
** We prefer short anterior fusion as in "preventive surgery" in the structural area of deformity in order to realigne the spine.
