Best Neurosurgeon for Spinal Disorders & Spine Surgery
Spinal problems cover many conditions. These can affect your spine bones, the cushions (discs) between them, the joints, or the nerves. Sometimes these problems show up slowly, like discs wearing down or the spine narrowing. Other times, they come from an injury, infection, or a problem you're born with. The conditions have a tendency to start silently but then develop to produce stiffness, loss of balance, nerve pain, or radiating pain to the extremities. In severe instances, the patient could experience incontinence of the bladder, foot drop, or even developing spinal deformity. Early identification of the signs and clinical accuracy can frequently prevent the progression and enhance the long-term outcome.
Chennai Neuroscience Foundation combines clinical expertise with a patient-centered approach to treat spinal disorders. Whether the cause is structural or nerve-related destruction, we spend time examining each of the layers of the spine with the newest imaging and diagnostic technology. Our complete spine treatment plans integrate noninvasive treatments, interventional treatments, and, in cases necessary, minimally invasive or reconstructive surgery. This care is molded by the guidance of Dr. Kodeeswaran Marappan, who is a specialist in surgeries of the brain and spinal cord and has taken our team through thousands of complicated cases. Having carried out more than five thousand successful operations, including complex spinal pathologies, our center is the place where you can count on quality treatment, with a single aim to maintain the health of the spine and restore each patient to everyday life with comfort and strength.
Common Spine Issues Treated by Expert Spine Specialists
-
Cervical and Lumbar Spondylosis
We treat wear-and-tear spine changes that often cause lower back pain and neck stiffness.
-
Disc Herniation and Bulges
Our care relieves nerve pressure caused by slipped discs, often linked to sacrum pain or sciatica.
-
Spinal Stenosis
We help manage narrowing of spinal spaces that leads to numbness, weakness, or back strain during movement.
-
Scoliosis and Kyphosis
We correct abnormal spine curves that affect posture and often trigger back sprains in daily activity.
-
Spine Fractures and Injuries
In trauma cases, we stabilize broken spines and reduce back cramps through timely diagnosis and repair.
-
Infections (TB Spine, Discitis)
Our treatments stop spinal infections from spreading and prevent lasting damage to back posture and mobility.
-
Spinal Tumors and Metastasis
We remove or control tumors affecting spine structure to avoid nerve damage and a stiff lower back.
Human Spine Bones From Cervical to Coccyx Vertebrae Guide
-
Cervical Vertebrae (Neck Bones)
You have 7 bones in your neck, from C1 to C7. Each one has a special small hole on its side. These holes let blood vessels pass through. These vessels send blood to the top of your spinal cord and the back of your brain. Plus, these neck bones are shaped to let your head move easily.
-
Thoracic Vertebrae (Upper Back Bones)
There are 12 bones in your upper back, from T1 to T12. The first 10 of these bones have flat spots on their sides. These spots connect to your ribs. The main hole in these bones is round, and the bone itself looks a bit like a heart. These upper backbones also have long, thin points that stick downwards.
-
Lumbar Vertebrae (Lower Back Bones)
You have 5 bones in your lower back, from L1 to L5. These bones are big and shaped like a kidney. The hole in them can be oval or triangular. And their pointy parts are short and blocky.
-
Sacral Vertebrae (Tailbone Area - Fused)
Here, five bones are connected together to make a single bone called the sacrum. The sacrum is wedge-shaped. It carries the weight of your body and spreads it to your hips and legs.
-
Coccygeal Vertebrae (Tailbone)
The last four bones are fused together to form the coccyx, also known as your tailbone. This tiny bone mostly just helps attach muscles and strong tissues around your hips. It doesn't carry your body weight.
Advanced Spine Imaging & Tests for Spinal Conditions
3T MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
Our 3T MRI delivers crisp, high-definition images of soft tissues, revealing disc bulges, cord compression, or tumors. It accurately detects early causes of upper back muscle pain, allowing us to design custom and non-surgical spine treatment strategies without delay.
Dynamic CT (Computed Tomography)
Dynamic CT takes images of the moving spine during flexion and extension. It detects unstable vertebrae and disc displacement, which cause pain in the upper back, usually not included in standard scans. It is important for preparing for surgery or bracing.
EMG-NCV (Electromyography & Nerve Conduction Velocity)
These tests assess the functioning of nerves in sending messages to muscles, how well, and how quickly. They assist in confirming lower back muscle spasms or irreparable nerve damage when the spine causes compression of nerve roots. It also helps in choosing the best nerve-guided treatment.
Spinal Cord Monitoring
We utilize real-time monitoring in spine surgery to monitor spinal cord function. It warns us ahead of time before the nerve damage and avoids complications such as lower back strain or numbness. It enables us to achieve a safer surgery result, particularly in cases involving tumors.
Image-Guided Navigation
This device employs 3D imaging to direct surgical instruments accurately. It increaeses safety for sophisticated spine procedures and minimizes misplaced implants. It is most appropriate in the treatment of scoliosis or injury to the spinal cord, where accuracy is purely essential.
Why Neurosurgeons Must Interpret the Imaging
Spine pictures are only as effective as the person who reads them. Our neurosurgeons personally read every detail, not just the reports, so they catch nuances before they become severe problems. This reduces misdiagnosis and improves results, even for conditions like back sprain treatment.
Impact of Chronic Spine Issues on Daily Life & Mobility
- Chronic Back or Neck Pain
- Numbness or Tingling in Arms and Legs
- Gait Instability or Limping While Walking
- Loss of Balance or Frequent Falls
- Reduced Hand Grip or Fine Motor Control
- Bladder or Bowel Dysfunction
- Fatigue from Interrupted Sleep Due to Pain
- Work Absenteeism or Job Loss
- Fear of Permanent Disability
- Reduced Participation in Family and Social Life
- Emotional Distress, Anxiety, or Depression
- Inability to Perform Daily Household Activities
- Loss of Independence in Personal Care
Proven Spine Treatment Options for Spinal Disorder Relief
Decompression & Fusion
We relieve spinal cord or nerve pressure and stabilize the spine by fusing affected vertebrae using advanced surgical techniques.
Disc Replacement Surgery
In place of a damaged disc, we implant an artificial one to preserve motion and relieve chronic back or neck pain.
Discectomy/Herniated Cervical Disc Surgery
We surgically remove herniated cervical discs to ease nerve compression and reduce pain, numbness, and weakness.
Fusion for Spine Trauma
We use spinal fusion to stabilize fractured or dislocated vertebrae after trauma, ensuring long-term structural support.
Kyphoplasty/Kyphosis Surgery
We correct spinal curvature with kyphoplasty to restore alignment and alleviate humpback-related pain or deformity.
Scoliosis Surgery
We straighten and stabilize abnormal spinal curves using rods and screws for improved posture and mobility.
Cervical Spondylosis Surgery
Surgical intervention relieves nerve compression from degenerative cervical discs to restore neck mobility and comfort.
Lower Back Pain Surgeries
Targeted surgical procedures address disc, joint, or nerve issues to relieve chronic lower back pain and restore function.
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS)
We use small incisions and precise tools to treat spine problems with less pain, minimal scarring, and faster recovery.
