At Shinsegae Seoul Hospital’s Spine Treatment Center, we provide comprehensive care with both surgical and non-surgical treatment options to address various spine-related issues.

Non-Surgical Treatments

Vertebroplasty

Vertebroplasty is a procedure where medical bone cement is injected into broken vertebrae to stabilize and strengthen them. A small incision is made, and the cement hardens quickly, providing pain relief and allowing a rapid return to daily activities. This procedure is suitable for patients with conditions like vertebral compression fractures and osteoporosis, often performed under local anesthesia.

Neuroplasty

Neuroplasty involves inserting a special catheter through the epidural space to remove inflammation and adhesions around the spinal nerves. This procedure helps with conditions like lumbar and cervical disc herniation, spinal stenosis, and post-spine surgery syndrome. It offers immediate pain relief and long-term benefits without the burden of surgery.

Nerve Block

Nerve block treatment injects medication into the nerves or ganglia to reduce pain and inflammation. It is effective for conditions such as spinal stenosis, frozen shoulder, and disc issues, providing quick pain relief and fewer side effects compared to surgery.

Trigger Point Injections

Trigger point injections target specific areas causing muscle pain and stiffness. This non-surgical treatment helps relax knotted muscles and alleviate pain by stimulating the muscles at the exact pain points.

Regenerative Injection Therapy

Regenerative injection therapy uses polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) to promote cell differentiation and tissue regeneration in damaged areas. It is effective for conditions like degenerative arthritis, tendon or ligament ruptures, and scars, providing quick treatment with minimal side effects.

Surgical Treatments

Artificial Disc Replacement

Artificial disc replacement involves removing a damaged spinal disc and replacing it with a semi-permanent artificial disc. This surgery allows the spine to move freely post-operation and is highly effective in relieving pain and preserving natural movement, particularly in the neck area.

Microscopic Spinal Surgery

Microscopic spinal surgery uses a microscope to minimize incisions and preserve normal tissue. This precise surgery reduces the risk of damage to surrounding tissues and is ideal for complex spinal conditions requiring high accuracy.

Transverse Lumbar Spinal Fusion

Transverse lumbar spinal fusion involves making an incision on the side of the abdomen to access and remove the damaged disc and insert artificial bone. This method helps correct severe lumbar misalignment and stabilizes the spine.

Spinal Fusion

Spinal fusion surgery removes damaged bone and ligament tissue, inserts an artificial cage, and fixes the spine with screws. It is necessary for patients with spinal stenosis or spondylolisthesis to stabilize the spine and alleviate pain when non-surgical treatments are ineffective.

High-Difficulty Revision Surgery

High-difficulty revision surgery addresses persistent pain after initial spinal surgery. Our specialists accurately diagnose the cause of post-spine surgery syndrome and provide customized treatments to improve spinal pain and stability.

At Shinsegae Seoul Hospital, our Spine Treatment Center combines advanced technology and expert care to deliver optimal outcomes for our patients.
