What is the coroktomy?
Correctomy is a surgery in which the surgeon removes bones and discs to relieve the pressure of the spinal cord and nerves of the patient. Within this surgery, the physician removes part of the bony sections that make up the backbone column, and the discs that are adjacent to the part of the bone and prevent the bone from wipe together. To fill the space that has left the removal of the bone and the disk, the surgeon reconstructs the backbone column by means of bone graft, which is the procedure used to replace the missing bone of another bone or replace the bones.
This surgery can be used to treat a patient whose cervical backbone channel has been rendered by too narrow bone spurs, but can also be performed on other parts of the spine and to treat other conditions. The cervical backbone channel is in the throat and it is a channel through which the spinal cord is threaded. Also referred to as osteophytes, bone spurs are parts of bones that develop and protrude normal bones. When the contact with the nerves and other bones is established, they mayObit such symptoms such as pain, numbness and armor. Some people also experience the feeling of pins and needles and the weakness of the arms and hands due to the narrowed cervical spine channel. In severe cases, patients may also lose control of their bladder and intestines and have difficulty maintaining balance.
Coroktomy is usually performed with the patient under general anesthesia and unable to feel the pain of surgery. With a patient lying on his back, the surgeon makes a small cut on the patient's neck to start coroktomy. If the patient's own bone tissue is part of the bone graft, another cut may be required. Then the surgeon removes discs that are above and below the bones to be removed, followed by a part of the vertebrae. Finally, the surgeon uses GVOR bones to fill empty space and support the spine; Metal boards and screws are sometimes used for further support.
After Coroctomy, some people feel low pain painI or discomfort, but oral painkillers help to release it. Some patients also temporarily experience sore throat after surgery. Recovery does not take too long in the hospital and patients are usually released from the hospital during one or two surgery. In some patients, immediate relief may be from symptoms, while others may notice a gradual improvement in symptoms. It is important to note that cigarette smoking can disrupt the optimum bone healing after surgery.
