Spinal Deformity Correction
Spinal deformity correction is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting abnormal curvature or misalignment of the spine. These deformities can include conditions such as scoliosis (sideways curvature), kyphosis (forward curvature), or other spine misalignments. The procedure involves a combination of techniques to realign the spine, stabilize it, and, in many cases, fuse the vertebrae to prevent future deformity.
Segmental Instability
Segmental instability is a condition where the bones in your spine (vertebrae) move more than they should. This extra movement can cause pain and make it difficult to perform everyday activities. It usually occurs in the lower back (lumbar spine) but can happen in other parts of the spine too.
