Overview

Surgery is rarely needed for back pain. Surgery may be required in patients with lumbar disc herniation, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, scoliosis, compression fracture. Surgical procedure include, diskectomy, laminectomy, joint fusion, artificial disks, interlaminar implant, vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, and nucleoplasty.

Surgery

Surgery may sometimes be appropriate for patients. Types of back surgeries include:
