Lumbar Discectomy: общие сведения
Lumbar discectomy in India is a spine operation that removes the portion of a herniated lumbar disc compressing a nerve root. It is mainly used for sciatica, leg pain, numbness or weakness that matches the level of disc herniation on imaging, rather than for nonspecific low-back pain alone. Many lumbar disc herniations improve without surgery, so the decision depends on symptom severity, neurological findings, duration and response to appropriate non-operative care.
Assessment includes a neurological examination and lumbar MRI, with X-rays or CT added when instability, recurrent disease, calcification or unusual anatomy needs clarification. Surgery may be considered earlier when there is progressive motor weakness or another significant neurological deficit, while persistent radicular pain despite conservative treatment is a common elective indication.
The operation may be performed as a microdiscectomy or through another limited decompression approach depending on anatomy and surgeon preference. Important risks include dural tear, infection, nerve injury, recurrent disc herniation, persistent symptoms and scar-related recurrent compression. New bladder or bowel dysfunction, saddle numbness or rapidly progressive weakness may indicate cauda equina syndrome and requires urgent local emergency assessment rather than planned medical travel.
The cost of lumbar discectomy in India depends on the spinal level, primary versus revision surgery, surgical technique, anaesthesia, hospital stay and postoperative rehabilitation. Additional decompression or fusion, when clinically required for another structural problem, changes the estimate substantially.
India offers access to experienced orthopaedic and neurosurgical spine teams at tertiary and specialist hospitals with MRI-based planning, microsurgical techniques and rehabilitation support. Medical Help India is a connection platform that can connect medically stable international patients with an appropriate healthcare partner whose spine team can review MRI images and symptoms, advise whether surgery is indicated and provide an individual treatment and cost estimate.

Часто задаваемые вопросы
How much does Lumbar Discectomy cost in India?
Cost depends on the spinal level, primary versus revision surgery, microdiscectomy or other decompression technique, anaesthesia, hospital stay and rehabilitation. Additional decompression or fusion, when separately indicated, should be itemised rather than included as if it were routine discectomy.
Which medical reports are useful to have ready for Lumbar Discectomy?
Have ready: the lumbar MRI images and report, spine or neurology consultation notes and records of previous physiotherapy, injections or surgery. Include the distribution of leg pain or numbness, any weakness and whether there are bladder, bowel or saddle-sensation changes; emergency neurological symptoms require urgent local assessment.
What is lumbar discectomy intended to treat?
It removes herniated disc material compressing a lumbar nerve root and is mainly intended to relieve matching sciatica or neurological deficit.
Do all lumbar disc herniations need surgery?
No. Many improve with non-operative care when there is no urgent neurological deficit or cauda equina syndrome.
Can a disc herniate again after discectomy?
Yes. Recurrent herniation at the operated level is a recognized complication even after an initially successful procedure.
