Spine & Back Surgery in Tijuana, Mexico
Two or more vertebrae are joined into a single, stable structure using rods and screws — eliminating painful motion between damaged spinal segments.
Spinal fusion permanently connects two or more vertebrae so they heal into a single, solid bone, removing the painful motion between damaged or unstable segments of the spine.
Titanium rods, screws, and bone graft material are used to stabilize the spine while the vertebrae fuse over the following months. Spinal fusion is one of the most common procedures for chronic low back pain caused by degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, or spinal instability.
Our surgical team uses modern instrumentation and intraoperative imaging to plan precise placement of hardware, aiming for long-term stability and relief.

How long does spinal fusion recovery take?
Hospital stay is typically 2–3 days. Most patients resume light daily activities within 4–6 weeks, with full bone fusion continuing over 6–12 months.
Will I lose flexibility after fusion?
Fusing one or two levels typically has a modest effect on overall spinal flexibility for most patients, since the remaining healthy segments continue to move normally.
