Posterior Cervical Fusion

The Posterior Cervical Fusion procedure is a spine surgery designed to address issues related to the cervical spine, which is located in the neck. In this operation, the surgeon works from the back (posterior) of the neck to create a solid bridge of bone between two or more cervical vertebrae. The goal of the surgery is to stop movement between the fused vertebrae, which can effectively reduce pain and improve stability.

This technique is often employed to treat conditions such as cervical spinal stenosis, cervical degenerative disc disease, cervical fractures, or instability due to severe arthritis or previous spinal surgery. It can also be used to correct deformities in the cervical spine.

At SpineMed Specialists, our primary goal is to relieve pain and restore stability to improve our patients’ quality of life in and around Wichita, KS.
