Medical report on the patient’s condition
The patient is 68 years old, and she has been suffering from back pain for a long time, which spread to pain in the pelvis and thighs, which hindered her from practicing her normal life.
As a result of this pain, the patient reached a state where she could not walk or move, and she constantly needed someone to help her move. She also eventually came to use a wheelchair.
Medical diagnosis of the patient’s condition
After the patient arrived at the hospital, an examination and radiological examinations were performed, and her condition was accurately diagnosed, which showed the presence of a herniated disc in the dorsal vertebrae and spinal cord stenosis.
We performed the vertebral fixation procedure and titanium screws were installed for the required vertebrae. As a result of the operation the hernia was removed and after the operation the pains completely disappeared, and her life was restored normally.
