Oblique Lateral Interbody Fusion (OLIF) Surgery In Delhi

Overview

As the name suggests, our Oblique Lateral Interbody Fusion (OLIF) surgeon in Delhi utilizes this procedure to fuse the bones of the lower back or lumbar spine area. The minimally invasive surgery technique uses a single small cut to operate on the disc space ensuring lower risk of infection and increasing chances of faster recovery.

It is a safe and effective treatment option for degeneration of bones in the lower back area. The damaged disc is removed and filled with bone material, with bones getting fused at the end. After the procedure you can expect the restoration of correct spine position, height and curvature. The pain is also relieved as more space is made for the compressed nerves.

Benefits of OLIF Surgery Vs Open Surgery:

• Less wound infections
• Technically advanced procedure but more effective
• Reduces surgery procedure time
• Less risk of nerve damage and bleeding
• No cutting of muscle or soft tissue
• Quicker discharge from hospital
• Faster recovery and lower risk of blood clots

Every case of surgery is different in some ways and whatever you have researched may turn out to be different whether in terms of the surgery option or the diagnosis. Consult with our spine specialist for clarity on your treatment.
