Lanka Hospitals, reached another milestone recently by successfully completing140 Minimally Invasive Spinal Fusion (MISF) surgeries.
Lanka Hospitals is the only hospital in Sri Lanka to reach this milestone in neurosurgery. The minimally invasive spinal fusion surgery is a state-of-the-art medical procedure carried out for spinal diseases with minimal pain or scarring.
The procedure is carried out with the assistance of neuro navigation and neuro monitoring which ensures the least chances of nerve damage during the minimally invasive spinal fusion surgery. These special features enable an individual undergoing the surgery to recover much faster than when undergoing a traditional surgery.
“Lanka Hospitals is the pioneer in performing minimally invasive spinal fusion surgeries in Sri Lanka and I’m pleased to say that we are one of the few hospitals in South Asia to carry out this procedure with the highest quality standards using the best technology and at the most cost-effective rate.
The number of minimally invasive spinal fusion surgeries that we have carried out thus far are a testament to the high caliber of neuro surgeons in our team and the state-of-the-art technology usedat Lanka Hospitals to conduct these procedures,” Lanka Hospitals’ Group Chief Executive Officer, Deepthi Lokuarachchi stated. “Lanka Hospitals can be considered South Asia’s most cost-effective option for minimally invasive spinal fusion surgeries. The minimally invasive spinal fusion surgery is less than 50% less than done in overseas.”
We offer the same surgery at the same high standards, which very few are aware of. This factor combined with the advanced MRI scanning technology at the hospital enables us to come to a correct diagnosis prior to conducting surgery,” Consultant Neurological Surgeon, Dr. Prasanna Gunasena stated.
The Lanka Hospitals Neurosurgical Centre is aprivate healthcare centre that offers the services of a specialised team of Neurosurgeons who provide 24-hour service, 365 days a year to facilitate neurological and neurosurgical related emergency services.
