Dorsolumbar Spine Fixation and Decompression Surgery by Computer Navigation

 Our Team performed Dorsolumbar Spine Fixation and Decompression Surgery by Computer Navigation for the FIRST TIME in our Hospital on 25th November 2025, with the recently acquired Medtroniks Stealth Station.This was done for a 54 year old Gentleman with cord compression and paraparesis and severe radicular pain and severe back pain. Patient could walk today with support in 48 hours post surgery.


100% precision in Pedicle screws placement in such a sensitive area, quick and fast surgery, Avoidance of excessive radiation from C-Arm ( 1/20th of the radiation compared to conventional techniques) to Surgeon and Support staff and Patient is the biggest advantage. This high end Technology is now available with us in Spine Surgery.
