Posterior Cervical Decompression and Fusion

At Dr. Naresh Neuro Spine Center, we specialize in Posterior Cervical Decompression and Fusion (PCDF), a surgical procedure designed to treat complex cervical spine conditions. Led by Dr. Naresh Kumar, a renowned Consultant Neurospine Surgeon, we offer advanced, patient-focused care to relieve pain, restore functionality, and enhance quality of life for patients suffering from severe cervical spine issues.

What is Posterior Cervical Decompression and Fusion?
Posterior Cervical Decompression and Fusion is a two-part surgical procedure performed through the back (posterior) of the neck. The first step involves decompression, where pressure is relieved from the spinal cord or nerve roots by removing bone spurs, herniated discs, or other structures that are compressing the nerves. The second step is fusion, where two or more vertebrae are joined together using bone grafts or implants to stabilize the spine and prevent further movement or degeneration.

Conditions Treated with Posterior Cervical Decompression and Fusion:

• Cervical spondylotic myelopathy
• Herniated or bulging cervical discs
• Spinal stenosis
• Degenerative disc disease
• Spinal instability due to trauma or deformity

How the Procedure Works:

• Decompression: Dr. Naresh Kumar removes the tissue, bone spurs, or disc material that is compressing the spinal cord or nerve roots.
• Fusion: After decompression, the affected vertebrae are fused together using bone grafts or metal implants to ensure long-term stability.
• The surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia, and a small incision is made in the back of the neck.

Benefits of Posterior Cervical Decompression and Fusion:

• Pain Relief: Alleviates neck, arm, and shoulder pain caused by nerve compression.
• Improved Mobility: Restores normal movement and function of the cervical spine.
• Long-term Stability: Prevents further degeneration and maintains spinal alignment.
