Minimally invasive fusion surgery in kdms Orthopedic Hospital
About the clinic
Minimally invasive fusion surgery at kdms Orthopedic Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand, offers a modern alternative to traditional open spine procedures. This specialized treatment focuses on stabilizing the spine using small incisions and advanced imaging. The clinic is the first orthopedic-only hospital in Thailand to earn JCI accreditation, which reflects high international safety standards.
Advanced Surgical Techniques
Surgeons at kdms use Minimally Invasive Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion, often called MIS TLIF. This method allows the team to access the spine through very small openings. Depending on the case, they use a uniportal approach with an 8-12 mm scope or a biportal approach with a 4 mm scope. These small tools help the surgeon see the treatment area without making large cuts. The procedure involves placing pedicle screws, bone anchor screws, and an interbody spacer to stabilize the vertebrae.
Benefits of the Minimally Invasive Approach
Patients choose this method because it causes less damage to the surrounding muscles and tissues. This approach typically leads to less blood loss during the operation. Because the incisions are small, the body heals more quickly than it would after open surgery. Patients often experience less pain after the procedure and can return to their daily activities sooner. Most people stay in the hospital for 4 days and 3 nights to monitor their initial recovery.
Expert Spine Care Team
The spine department consists of specialized surgeons with extensive training in endoscopic techniques. Assoc. Prof. Rattalerk Arunakul, M.D., is a specialist in endoscopic spine surgery and trains other surgical staff. Assoc. Prof. Gun Keorochana, M.D., is known for performing endoscopic lumbar discectomies. The team also includes Assoc. Prof. Koopong Siribumrungwong, M.D., who focuses specifically on minimally invasive spine surgery. These experts work together to determine the most effective path for each patient.
Hospital Stay and Care
The treatment plan includes a full stay at the clinic with nursing care and meals. Patients receive support throughout their 3-night stay to help them start moving safely. The facility provides all necessary surgical implants, including screws and spacers, as part of the procedure. This structured environment helps patients focus entirely on their rehabilitation before returning home.
