At IBS Hospital, we emphasize that DBS isn’t suitable for everyone. Our approach typically considers:
Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS): Utilizing smaller incisions and advanced technology, MIS reduces trauma to surrounding tissues, leading to quicker recovery and less post- operative discomfort.
Growing Rods: Adjustable rods are implanted to guide spinal growth in children with scoliosis, allowing for periodic lengthening to accommodate growth.
Vertebral Body Tethering (VBT): A novel technique involving tethering screws to guide spinal growth and correct curvature in a more flexible manner.
Early Intervention Programs: Customized exercise regimens and physical therapies are designed to address spinal issues in their early stages, promoting proper development.
Neuromonitoring: Real-time nerve monitoring during surgery enhances safety, reducing the risk of neurological complications during spinal procedures.
Motion-Preserving Techniques: Implementing procedures that maintain spinal mobility while addressing issues like scoliosis, preserving natural movement and flexibility.
Regenerative Therapies: Emerging treatments like stem cell therapy aim to promote healing and regeneration of damaged spinal tissues in young patients.
