You may undergo an extensive surgical procedure where the stabilization method depends upon the specifics of your tumor. The fusion typically involves titanium rods, screws, and cages, assisted by spinal navigation. The surgery can last 4-8 hours, depending on the tumor and the extent of the stabilization procedure. Post-surgery, patients undergo a physical assessment and further medical investigations to plan their recovery. You are encouraged to ask any questions regarding the surgery, hospital stay, recovery, and post-surgery activities.
