A Spondylolisthesis Story: Restoring Spinal Alignment for a 50-Year-Old Patient

Dr Hitesh Garg (Head-Ortho Spine Surgeon) and senior anesthetist, Dr.Arya Prakash committed to providing the highest quality care for our patients. Today, we're performing a specialized surgery on a 50-year-old female patient who is suffering from spondylolisthesis, a condition where the vertebrae become misaligned.


Spondylolysis occurs when the pars bone, a critical part of the vertebrae, develops a defect or fracture. This causes the affected vertebra, in this case L4, to slip forward over the vertebra below it, L5, by up to 50%. This misalignment puts significant pressure on the surrounding nerves, leading to severe back pain and discomfort for the patient.

Our advanced diagnostic imaging, including 3D CT scans, have allowed us to precisely identify the problem area and plan the most effective surgical approach. By focusing our incision only on the specific region of interest, we can minimize the invasiveness of the procedure and promote a faster recovery for the patient.

Through our combined expertise and state-of-the-art techniques, we are confident in our ability to restore the patient's spinal alignment, alleviate her pain, and help her regain a better quality of life. Our commitment to innovative, patient-centered care is at the heart of everything we do.

Stay tuned as we guide you through this transformative procedure and witness the incredible impact it will have on our patient's well-being.
