@ladyspinedoc: Case study 71 - lumbar degenerative disc disease treated with lumbar disc replacement 🎥: @Betsy Grunch, M.D. 🧠 A lumbar disc replacement is a type of back or spine surgery. Your spine is made up of bones called vertebrae that are stacked on top of each other. Discs between the vertebrae work like cushions to allow the vertebrae to rotate and move without the bones rubbing against each other. The lumbar vertebrae and disc are at the bottom of your spine. Lumbar disc replacement involves replacing a worn or degenerated disc in the lower part of your spine with an artificial disc. Lumbar disc arthroplasty is generally seen as an alternative to lumbar fusion. Fusion permanently joins 2 vertebrae together. #neurosurgery #casestudy #sundaycasestudy #ladyspinedoc #healthcareworker #hospital #surgery #neurosurgeon #medicalschool #medstudent #medicalstudent #nursing #pastudent #paschool #nursingschool #backpain #motionpreservation #lumbardegenerativediscdisease #degenerativediscdisease #lumbarfusion #discreplacement #discarthroplasty #LearnOnTikTok

Also- please see NEUROSURGEONS for anything spinal- it is their specialty. I’ve seen too many bad outcomes when orthopedic drs work on the spine

Hubby had L5/S1 disc replacement (age 46) bc his leg was spasming for YEARS. He used to body-build, lifted too heavy. He’s great now!! 🙌🏻

Can you explain more about the facet pathology? Does mild narrowing mean you are excluded from the disc replacement and likely have to do a fusion?

Me again: if I’ve had 3 MD at l4/5 and one st l5/s1 with a facet fx and foraminotomy, would fusion be my only option?

Oh man. I got L5 S 1 fused when I was 43. Nine years ago. Now my doc wants to fuse C4-7 😩 Wish you took Cigna insurance.

Si joint pain is rarely bilateral? Could a connective tissue disorder cause bi lateral pain or would it still be more likely to be ankolyosing or auto

Bet.Kroll :
What would cause the SI joints to fuse on their own besides ankolyosing? Mine have fused & I don’t have it. I also have ddd, djd, and a lot more.

Please don’t get distracted from the intro. Make sure you get the right diagnosis! Surgery works if it’s done for the right problem!!!

Does a bilateral pars defect rule out any non-fusion options in this case?
