At Dr. Ahmed El-Ghoul’s clinic, we offer percutaneous vertebral fixation as an innovative solution for chronic back pain. This is one of the minimally invasive techniques in spine surgery, using advanced technology to ensure high precision and faster recovery.
What is percutaneous vertebral fixation?
It is an advanced surgical technique that does not require large incisions in the back, where the vertebrae are stabilized using titanium screws and rods:
Small incisions of only 1–2 cm
Special fixation systems through the skin
Imaging guidance to ensure accuracy and safety during surgery
Surgical microscope in cases of nerve root decompression
Conditions suitable for this technique:
Vertebral fractures caused by osteoporosis
Certain cases of spinal slippage (Spondylolisthesis)
Vertebral fractures caused by accidents when there is no pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots
Advantages of the technique:
Very small, barely visible surgical scars
Preservation of muscles and surrounding tissues
Minimal blood loss during surgery
Hospital stay of only one day
Rapid return to normal life (within days)
Effective and safe results supported by scientific research
High success rate in pain relief
Improved mobility and flexibility while preserving back muscles
Quick restoration of normal daily activity
