Treatment overview

Spinal fusion surgery is a major procedure that permanently joins two or more vertebrae together to eliminate painful or harmful motion at a damaged segment of the spine. It is typically recommended for patients with degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis with instability, scoliosis or other spinal deformities, fractures, or recurrent disc herniation — usually after several months of non-surgical treatment have not provided lasting relief. The surgeon places bone graft between the vertebrae and secures everything with titanium screws, rods, and cages while the graft slowly grows into a solid fusion over six to twelve months. The surgery can be performed through a posterior (back), anterior (front), or lateral (side) approach, and modern minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques have made recovery faster and more predictable. Most patients experience meaningful reduction in pain and improved function, and are able to return to daily activities within a few months of the operation.

4 approaches available for this treatment / procedure:

Open Posterior Spinal Fusion (PLIF / TLIF) Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (ALIF) Minimally Invasive Spinal Fusion (MIS-TLIF) Robotic-Assisted Spinal Fusion

Open Posterior Spinal Fusion (PLIF / TLIF) Standard Open

The spine is approached through a midline incision at the back; the disc is removed and a cage with bone graft is placed between the vertebral bodies, secured with screws and rods.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: ~$500 – $1,000

Typical tests for this variant: MRI spine (affected region), CT scan spine (bony anatomy and implant planning), Dynamic (flexion-extension) X-rays, CBC, KFT and LFT, PT/INR and coagulation profile, ECG and anaesthesia fitness evaluation, Blood sugar and HbA1c. Done in India before hospital admission.

Treatment / Procedure estimate

Estimated cost in India: $6,500 – $10,000

Stay in India

Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~3 days

Hospitalisation: ~5 days

Recovery period (outside hospital): ~15 days recommended

Total stay: approx 23 days

Usually Included in Hospital Package

Open posterior spine surgery (PLIF or TLIF technique)
Titanium pedicle screws, rods, and interbody cage
Bone graft placement (autograft/allograft)
Intraoperative neuromonitoring
Post-operative physiotherapy during hospital stay
Pre-procedure tests and imaging at hospital
Post-operative medications and pain management during stay

Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (ALIF) Anterior Approach

The spine is reached through an incision in the lower abdomen, allowing a large interbody cage to be placed from the front without disturbing the back muscles.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: ~$500 – $1,000

Typical tests for this variant: MRI lumbar spine, CT scan lumbar spine (implant planning), Dynamic (flexion-extension) X-rays, CT angiography or vascular assessment (major vessel proximity), CBC, KFT and LFT, PT/INR and coagulation profile, ECG and anaesthesia fitness evaluation, Blood sugar and HbA1c. Done in India before hospital admission.

Treatment / Procedure estimate

Estimated cost in India: $7,500 – $11,000

Stay in India

Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~3 days

Hospitalisation: ~5 days

Recovery period (outside hospital): ~15 days recommended

Total stay: approx 23 days

Usually Included in Hospital Package

Anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) surgery
Large-footprint interbody cage and bone graft
Supplemental posterior screw fixation where required
Intraoperative neuromonitoring and vascular surgical support
Post-operative physiotherapy during hospital stay
Pre-procedure tests and imaging at hospital
Post-operative medications and pain management during stay

Minimally Invasive Spinal Fusion (MIS-TLIF) Minimally Invasive

The same transforaminal fusion is performed through small incisions using specialised retractors and image guidance, causing less muscle damage and typically a faster early recovery.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: ~$500 – $1,000

Typical tests for this variant: MRI spine (affected region), CT scan spine (navigation planning), Dynamic (flexion-extension) X-rays, CBC, KFT and LFT, PT/INR and coagulation profile, ECG and anaesthesia fitness evaluation, Blood sugar and HbA1c. Done in India before hospital admission.

Treatment / Procedure estimate

Percutaneous pedicle screw placement under image guidance
Interbody cage with bone graft
Intraoperative neuromonitoring
Post-operative physiotherapy during hospital stay
Pre-procedure tests and imaging at hospital
Post-operative medications and pain management during stay

Robotic-Assisted Spinal Fusion Robotic

A robotic guidance system uses a 3D scan to plan and precisely direct screw placement through small incisions, combining the accuracy of robotic navigation with minimally invasive techniques.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: ~$500 – $1,000

Typical tests for this variant: MRI spine (affected region), CT scan spine (robotic pre-operative planning — high-resolution), Dynamic (flexion-extension) X-rays, CBC, KFT and LFT, PT/INR and coagulation profile, ECG and anaesthesia fitness evaluation, Blood sugar and HbA1c, DEXA scan (bone density, if osteoporosis suspected).

Overall, I am very satisfied with the care and support we received. I especially want to give these 5 stars to our coordinator, Natasha, who was assigned to us during our stay, as well as to the entire backend team: Mr. Abdul Alim, Riashree, Faizan, Moshin, and everyone else. Their professionalism and dedication were evident. Thank you, and until next time!
