Innovative Technique Performed at CEANNE Guarapuava

Neurosurgeon Dr. Lucas Martins, from CEANNE Guarapuava, performed an important spine procedure last week that brought significant benefit to the patient. The procedure consisted of a lumbar disc replacement.

This technique is indicated in selected cases of disc degeneration associated with axial spine pain. Lumbar disc replacement aims to treat the affected disc while preserving movement in the spinal segment, offering a modern alternative in specific clinical situations.

At CEANNE Guarapuava, procedures such as this reinforce the institution’s commitment to advanced neurosurgical care, specialized medical evaluation, and the use of innovative techniques for the treatment of spine disorders.
