1. What is ACDF surgery?

Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) is a surgical procedure performed through the front of the neck to remove a herniated or degenerative disc, decompress spinal nerves, and fuse the adjacent cervical vertebrae for stability.

2. How does ACDF relieve arm and neck pain?

By removing the disc or bone spurs compressing the spinal cord and nerve roots, the pressure causing radiating pain, weakness, and numbness down the neck, shoulder, and arm is directly relieved.

3. Is ACDF in Istanbul, Turkey painful?

The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, ensuring no pain during the procedure. Post-operative pain and throat discomfort are managed effectively with prescribed medications and nursing care during your hospital stay.

4. Who is a candidate for Cervical Spine Surgery in Istanbul Turkey?

Candidates are individuals suffering from severe cervical disc herniation, spinal stenosis, cervical radiculopathy, or myelopathy who have not responded to conservative treatments like physical therapy or medications.

5. What material is used for the spinal fusion?

Surgeons at Biruni Hospital utilize bio-compatible PEEK cages or titanium implants filled with synthetic or natural bone graft material, secured with a medical-grade titanium plate and screws.

6. How long is the hospital stay at Biruni Hospital?

Most patients stay in the hospital for 3 to 5 nights to ensure proper pain control, early rehabilitation, and continuous medical monitoring before discharging to a hotel.

7. Will I need to wear a neck brace after ACDF?

Yes, a soft or rigid cervical collar is usually recommended for 2 to 6 weeks following surgery to support the neck during initial bone healing and fusion.

8. How long should I stay in Istanbul after surgery?

Patients are advised to plan an overall stay of 8 to 12 days in Istanbul to complete pre-operative diagnostics, the procedure, inpatient stay, and post-operative follow-up visits before traveling home.

9. When can I return to work and daily activities?

Light desk work and daily non-strenuous activities can often be resumed in 3 to 4 weeks. Heavy lifting, strenuous exercise, and high-impact sports must be paused for 3 to 6 months until complete fusion is confirmed.

10. Can multiple cervical disc levels be treated in one surgery?

Yes. ACDF can be performed on single or multiple levels (e.g., 2-level or 3-level ACDF) depending on the extent of disc degeneration and nerve compression determined by MRI evaluations.
