rizwana bibi2024-03-08Asslam alikum. My name is Ubaid and I am from Attock. My mother had multi level lumbar disc disease which was badly affecting her quality of life. Her MRI showed spinal stenosis on L4L5, L5S1. She was unable to walk for a few steps and she had to take rest. She had taken all the medicine and was given epidural injections too but it didnt help. We wasted a lot of money on Physiotherapy but it was of no avail. We were recommended surgery but the surgeons were saying that she will get paralyzed after surgery. We consulted Dr Ammar Anwer online. Dr sb answered all our questions, and recommended surgery. We came all the way from Attock to get operated and after surgery, my mother walked for first time in months. Now her pain is gone, she can walk easily and we are happy that we got surgery from Dr Ammar Anwer. He is one of the best spinal surgeons and he focuses on results. I will highly recommend Dr Ammar Anwer to any one who is considering spinal surgery. Ubaid, Attock.
Ubaid khattak2024-03-06I have heard many rumours about L5S1 microdiscectomy complications but dr Ammar did a great job and my operation is completely recovered without any complications.It's been eight months since he operated me and now i did MRI again for verification that disc is completely recovered and Alhamdulillah my reports are clear. Dr Ammar Anwar is really expert in his profession and i am very thankful to him that he gave me new healthy life. Thank you Dr Ammar

Percutaneous pedicle fixation is when the surgeon inserts metal rods and screws into the spine to support the affected segments. Percutaneous pedicle fixing eliminates the need for a significant incision and reduces the recovery time and hospitalization, ensuring earlier return to life. Screws and rods are instead introduced via a few tiny incisions over the skin. To ensure patient safety and successful surgery with excellent results, Dr Ammar Anwer uses state of the art gadgets, image guidance and spares no expense. Dr Ammar Anwer performs this procedure to stabilize the spine after fracture, ease pain caused by degenerative spinal problems, treat instability caused by a tumour or infection, or rectify a spinal deformity.

While the specific length of your recovery will depend on your surgery, minimally invasive techniques when coupled with consistent physical therapy can reduce the time you spend in recovery. Some patients are able to return to their normal activities within the span of a few weeks.
Will there be a scar from my surgery?
Percutaneous spine surgery requires a neurosurgeon to make a small incision in the back above the location of the affected portion of your spine. This incision will likely leave a scar. However, surgeons can typically work through a space of about 7mm, which is less than half the size of a dime, meaning the scar will be very small.
