Nucleoplasty Spine
Surgery in India

Nucleoplasty is a relatively new advancement in the field of
spine surgery. It is a procedure used to reduce disc pressure in
patients suffering from discogenic (disc related) backache. It is
a percutaneous procedure in which some of the disc material
is disintegrated to relieve the intra discal pressure using a low
temperature resistor. As it does not require any incision over
the body, it is beneficial for patients complaining of back pain
with disc pathology and unwilling to undergo full fledged
discectomy.

The intervertebral discs are soft, cushion like structures
between two adjacent vertebral bones in the human spine.
Their main function is shock absorption. These discs are
hydrated and are made up of a central structure called the
nucleus pulposus and a surrounding structure called as annulus
fibrosis. But with age they lose their water content and the
disc becomes hard and begins to degenerate.

The wear and tear process is aggravated by faulty spine
movements, faulty posture, lack of exercise, obesity etc. The
inner disc material pushes the outer annulus wall causing it
bulge. This bulge can be large enough to compress the
surrounding structures like the spinal cord and the spinal
nerves resulting in severe back pain and radiating pain in the
arm or leg. This condition can affect the cervical (neck) or
lumbar (low back) region of the spine.

This is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local
anesthesia and is completed within 30-45 minutes. It
performed on an out patient basis and the patient is allowed to
go home after the procedure on the very same day.

Under fluoroscopy, a needle is advanced into the involved disc.
A specialized catheter is then introduced through the needle
into the disc and positioned where the ablation is desired. The
catheter has a low-temperature resister at its tip which
generates a plasma field. This plasma field disintegrates disc
material into its hydrogen and oxygen constituents which
escape through the needle. The tissue ablation and thermal
treatment create a series of channels within the disc, reducing
the pressure from the contained disc herniation or the nerve
root and other pain generating structures. The patient is
relieved immediately after the procedure .

Since this is a minimally invasive surgery, the amount of tissue
damage is less and so the patient recovery is quicker. He is
taught a few series of progressive, stretching, strengthening and
endurance exercises by the Physical therapist on an out patient
basis. Also correct guidelines in walking, sitting, standing and
lifting techniques are taught to the patient. The patient is
gradually introduced to normal daily activities.
