Spinal infection surgery

• Surgical debridement and stabilization: The surgeon cleans infected spinal tissue caused by bacterial or tuberculous infection. Stabilization follows when needed.
• Minimally invasive spinal surgery: Small incisions allow the use of microscopic and endoscopic instruments.
• Spinal fusion with screw-rod fixation: Screw-rod systems stabilize the vertebrae when infection or decompression causes instability.

Debridement and stabilization are the procedures described for spinal infection. The listed CyberKnife and tumor-removal procedures address other spinal conditions, not the abscess itself.

Other spinal and neuromodulation procedures

• Microsurgical spinal cord tumor removal: This removes lesions in spinal bones, membranes, or the cord, with stabilization if needed.
• CyberKnife radiosurgery: This non-invasive method directs focused radiation at a target without an incision.
• Spinal cord stimulation: An implanted electrode and battery modulate pain signals. The clinic lists it for post-infectious nerve pain and bladder dysfunction.
• Baclofen pump implantation: A programmable pump delivers medicine through a catheter. It is listed for severe spasticity after spinal cord damage.
