Lumbar interbody fusion is an effective method for treating lumbar diseases, and the long fixation system may shorten the patient's postoperative recovery time compared to traditional surgical methods. This advantage is mainly due to the uniqueness of the long fixation system and its related technologies.
Traditional lumbar interbody fusion usually requires a large surgical incision to expose the surgical area and perform the operation. This surgical method is not only traumatic, but also has a long postoperative recovery time, and patients often have to endure pain and discomfort for a long time. However, the introduction of the long fixation system has brought new changes to lumbar interbody fusion.
The long fixation system is an advanced internal fixation device that can be minimally invasively operated through percutaneous endoscopic technology. This surgical method does not require a large incision, and only requires a few tiny skin incisions to implant screws and other fixation devices into the lumbar spine. Due to the small surgical trauma, the patient's postoperative pain and discomfort will be greatly reduced, which helps to shorten the recovery time.
In addition, the long fixation system is also highly stable and accurate. Through precise preoperative planning and intraoperative navigation, doctors can ensure that screws and other fixation devices are accurately implanted in the predetermined position, thereby effectively maintaining the stability of the lumbar spine. This stability not only helps promote lumbar fusion, but also reduces the risk of postoperative lumbar function loss or increased pain, and further promotes the patient's postoperative recovery.
In addition to low surgical trauma and high stability, the long fixation system has many other advantages. For example, it can reduce the amount of bleeding during surgery, reduce the risk of postoperative infection, and improve the success rate of surgery and patient satisfaction. These advantages help shorten the patient's postoperative recovery time and improve the quality of life.
Of course, after lumbar interbody fusion surgery with the long fixation system, the patient's recovery time is also affected by many factors, such as the patient's age, physical condition, postoperative care and rehabilitation, etc. Therefore, during the postoperative recovery process, patients need to pay close attention to their physical condition, follow the doctor's advice and guidance, and perform scientific rehabilitation exercises and care.
In summary, after lumbar interbody fusion surgery with the long fixation system, the patient's postoperative recovery time may be shorter than that of traditional surgery. This advantage is mainly due to the unique features of the long fixation system and its related technologies, such as minimally invasive operation, high stability and accuracy.
