spondylodesis
Spondylodesis, also known as spinal fusion, is a surgical procedure used to permanently join two or more vertebrae in the spine. This is typically done to stabilize a diseased or injured part of the spine, reduce pain, or correct deformities. The goal of spondylodesis is to eliminate motion between the fused vertebrae, which can alleviate symptoms caused by instability.
The procedure usually involves harvesting bone graft material, which can be taken from the patient's own body
Spondylodesis is indicated for a variety of spinal conditions, including degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis,
