How It’s Done
Lumbar Decompression and Fusion is done by accessing the spine through an incision in the lower back. The procedure involves removing portions of bone, tissue, or discs that are compressing the spinal nerves or causing instability.
Fusion is then performed, where bone grafts or implants are inserted to promote the joint of adjacent vertebrae, stabilizing the spine and relieving pressure on the nerves.
