Here we go again... 2006 Lumbar Fusion cages rods and screws S1-L4. 2018 same on L4\L3.
This time "just" Discectomy on L3\L2. Outpatient surgery. In and out same day tomorrow. A fusion of that level is coming but the goal is pushing it out as much as possible. This is my future. Fusions........
Amazing what medical technology can do these days.
Three surgeries is a lot to deal with but at least the tech is way better now than it was in 2006. iIwent to see opinion of Dr. Wheeler’s navigated spinal fusion, and for a consult and he's big on using 3d navigation to keep the incisions as small as possible, definitely worth checking out the newer robotic options for the next fusion.
