SPINAL SURGERY

The basis of successful treatment of spinal complaints (e.g. discus hernia, narrow spinal canal, fractures, instabilities, slipped vertebra, etc.) is still the detailed preoperative evaluation.
Leading the way here is the precise grasp of the history of the condition, appropriate imaging for establishing a diagnosis and the optimum selection of proven conservative and operative therapeutic procedures.

A detailed assessment in the consultation with an investigation of the case history and a clinical examination determines the appropriate imaging evaluation. This includes taking case-related, conventional X-rays, computer / magnetic resonance imaging (MRI scan) and scintigraphy in collaboration with the clinic’s own Medical Radiological Institute.

When the results are discussed with the patient, the choice of treatment is made. All the treatment, from the first consultation, the evaluation, the inpatient or outpatient treatment and follow-ups, is managed from one experienced source by our specialists who are accredited for spinal surgery.

A modern infrastructure and optimum perioperative treatment is available for a wide range of surgical spine treatments for adults.
