Spinal Instrumentation

Spinal instrumentation involves the use of medical devices, such as screws, rods, and plates, surgically placed on or inside the spine to help stabilize and support it. This procedure is often performed to treat conditions like spinal deformities, fractures, or degenerative diseases, preventing abnormal movement, reducing pain, and maintaining proper spinal alignment. The hardware works by holding the vertebrae in the correct position, facilitating healing, and restoring function. Spinal instrumentation is a common and effective method for improving stability and quality of life in patients with complex spinal problems.
