Spinal surgery is a core focus at Prodorso. We offer individual treatment concepts – ranging from conservative to minimally invasive surgical options. Our spinal surgeons will provide you with clear guidance on whether surgery is sensible or necessary.
When surgery is indicated Surgery is primarily indicated for a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebra), or significant neurological deficits.
Minimally invasive techniques We perform surgery as gently as possible using microsurgical procedures. In cases of advanced wear and tear, stabilization may be necessary.
Revision surgery We provide specialized expertise for complex cases and reoperations.
