About the clinic
Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF) at Memorial Şişli Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, is a specialized spine surgery for patients with chronic back pain or instability. The hospital was the first in Turkey to earn JCI accreditation, placing it among the top medical centers worldwide for safety. This procedure helps stabilize the spine by fusing vertebrae together through a minimally invasive approach.
Advanced Surgical Technology
Surgeons at the hospital use O-Arm imaging to see the spine in 3D during the operation. This tool helps the doctor place implants with high precision. Neuromonitoring technology is also active throughout the surgery. It tracks nerve signals in real-time to help protect the spinal cord and surrounding nerves from injury. These tools allow for smaller incisions and help reduce the physical impact of the surgery.
Multidisciplinary Spine Care
Patients receive care from a specialized spine center that brings different experts together in one place. The team includes specialists from orthopedics, neurosurgery, and physical therapy. By working together, these doctors create a plan tailored to each person’s specific spinal condition. This team-based method helps manage complex cases of lumbar disc herniation and spinal narrowing.
Rehabilitation and Recovery
The hospital uses microsurgical and endoscopic techniques to help patients recover faster. These methods focus on limiting damage to the back muscles and tissues. After the TLIF surgery, a dedicated physical therapy and rehabilitation team starts working with the patient. This early support is designed to restore mobility and help the patient return to daily activities safely. The hospital follows international protocols to manage pain and support long-term spine health.
