Giving patients a second chance for relief of pain and regaining motion motivates Los Angeles spine surgeon Dr. Rad Payman. "A failed back or neck surgery can leave a person in pain and consigned to reliance on pain medication," says Dr. Payman. "Newer procedures can successfully address previous failed surgeries."
“For example, artificial disc replacement may be performed to address neck injuries. The implant has been designed to maintain the physiological range of motion in the spine," says Dr. Payman. "Failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), describes the condition of people who have had an unsuccessful result with back surgery or spine surgery. Correcting or redoing a previous surgery performed by a different spine surgeon can be demanding. The surgeon must avoid causing any further injury to the affected areas,” says Dr. Payman. “Then the surgeon starts all over again to repair the original problem."
Dr. Payman is a board certified spine surgeon who specializes in reconstructive cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine surgery including the most advanced techniques of minimally invasive and micro surgical spinal procedures. He performs spinal fusion, spinal disc replacement, laminectomy and other procedures for spinal stenosis, herniated discs, scoliosis, failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) and more.
