WHAT IS ANTERIOR LUMBAR INTERBODY FUSION SURGERY?

Anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) is a spine surgery procedure to treat disc problems in your lower back. The first ALIF surgery was performed in the 1950s to treat symptoms of lumbar degenerative disc disease. Top spinal surgeons carry out this spinal procedure using an anterior or frontal approach. From this point of access, a skilled spine specialist removes the damaged spinal disc and places a cage or a spacer bone graft in the gap created.

Removing a damaged disc eases pressure on the surrounding nerves, which delivers much needed pain relief to your back and spine. Using a metal plate and screws, the doctor fastens the spacer to your spinal bones, reducing movement but adding spinal stability. The graft between the two vertebrae bones promotes fusion, so your bones grow together in the space.

Today, spinal specialists use advanced methods to improve the efficiency of the procedure and to ensure better results. To determine if ALIF surgery is the right procedure for you, consult a board certified spinal doctor. The neurosurgery and spine experts at Premier Brain & Spine, with seven locations in New Jersey and one in New York use the latest medical technology to treat a wide range of spinal conditions.
