Paralysis following spine surgery is actually very rare and depends on condition for which spine is operated. It does occur in some types of diseases like Ossified ligamentum flavum, Fluorosis and complex spine surgeries, but the percentage of occurrence is far less Patients who are operated for existent paralysis following fractures are never likely to improve. In such instances surgery is conducted to reduce pain, to make them comfortable and make nursing them easier. These patients and their relatives are always made aware before the surgery why it is being done, yet the general notion persists that surgery is the root cause of their paralysis, thus putting the blame squarely on the surgeon and the spine specialty. Conclusion: Currently due to great advances in technology, advanced trainings, new invented techniques and safe surgery equipment, the chances of paralysis are very less.
Yes, ideally, the incision size –should be kept as small as possible as it is done in endoscopy and minimally invasive spine surgeries. Apart from incision the paraspinal muscle should be minimally damaged. There are many surgeries that are complex and where the size of incision has to be unavoidably big.
No, absolutely not. Most of the patients who do not have weakness of the legs or hands, start walking right from the day after the surgery. Generally, they all are comfortable and ambulatory and are capable of basic self-care activities within a week. Within 3 weeks they can walk short distances with regular, long sitting intervals. Mild climbing of stairs is also possible. Post six weeks, physiotherapy starts with stair-climbing, squatting and sitting cross-legged; soon patients are allowed driving and they can easily resume everyday activities. Patients can lift weights after 2 -4 months of surgery. However, care should be taken to see that the weights are not heavy and are evenly distributed between the two sides and are lifted in an ergonomic way.
