Lumbar Fusion
Lumbar fusion is a surgical procedure to join two or more vertebrae in the lower back, stopping movement between them and creating a solid piece of bone to reduce pain and instability caused by conditions like degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and spinal stenosis. The surgery uses bone graft and often involves implants like screws and rods for stabilization, with the goal of fusing the bones together to provide stability and alleviate symptoms
