    What Is Spine Revision Surgery?

    When discomfort and pain continue after the first surgery, symptoms worsen, and the area compressing the nerve is judged not to have been removed, spine revision surgery should be performed after a detailed examination. It is commonly performed because, in most such patients, pain does not improve even with minimally invasive surgery. When symptoms do not improve after the first surgery and low back and leg pain and related symptoms (leg numbness, radiating leg pain, etc.) return, revision surgery is also the best option.

    CASEWho Is It For?

    Patients whose symptoms do not improve after surgery

    Patients who have had complications from infection or implant failure

    Patients whose nerves remain compressed due to incomplete decompression or incomplete reduction

    Patients whose symptoms do not improve because the fused segments were too short or insufficient, or because of an inadequate surgical method

    Patients who develop a fracture, disc herniation or stenosis in the segments above or below the operated level (adjacent segments)

    1. Pendant System

    To increase surgical efficiency and focus, and to manage infection and prevent safety accidents, we introduced a ceiling pendant system that mounts medical equipment on the operating room ceiling.

    2. C-arm

    Used together with the ceiling pendant system that mounts medical equipment on the operating room ceiling for infection control and accident prevention, this equipment provides real-time images of the surgical site, with fast processing and high resolution of the specific areas needed for surgery.

    3. Clean Room

    Installed not only in the operating rooms but on every floor of Dangol Hospital, these high-cleanliness rooms control biological contamination. To prevent infection, they secure and maintain a sterile environment in areas such as the hospital's aseptic wards and operating rooms, and help guard against diseases spread by viruses.
