There are both general and specific risks of undergoing spinal surgery. The general risks such as infection, bleeding, blood clots, and anesthesia are similar to those in other major operations. Patients who are obese, smoke, or have other medical illnesses are at greater risk. The specific risks including dural tear, nerve injury, pseudoarthrosis, and need for reoperation pertain to the type of spinal surgery being performed.

Can you explain what spinal cages are and why they are used?

Frequently Asked Questions
Spinal cages can mean either struts or threaded dowels. The purpose of either type is to reconstruct the anterior spinal column. The struts such as the Harms cage are usually supplemented with posterior instrumentation such as pedicle screws. The threaded dowels provide a stiffer construct initially and may not require supplemental hardware. We use cages, ramps, interbody dowels and intervertebral bone graft frequently.

Can a spinal cord injury be corrected with surgery?

Frequently Asked Questions about Spinal Cord Injuries
At this time, no. If there is compression on the spinal cord or the spine needs to be stabilized, surgery can be performed in an attempt to correct these problems. After surgery, some function may be restored, but surgery is currently unable to restore all lost function from a spinal cord injury. Spinal cord injuries are devastating and have life-long consequences.
