A new study from the prestigious Spine Journal shows that more than one in five patients are so dissatisfied with the results of their spinal stenosis ( narrowing) surgery that they undergo the pain, expense, disability, and danger of another surgery within 10 years. Plus the authors state that the re-operation rate seems to be increasing.
The cumulative reoperation rate was 4.7% at 3 months, 7.2% at 1 year, 9.4% at 2 years, 11.2% at 3 years, 12.5% at 4 years, and 14.2% at 5 years. The adjusted reoperation rate was not different between decompression and fusion surgeries. The calculated reoperation rate was expected to be 22.9% at 10 years.
Would it be worthwhile to try chiropractic care before this surgery? What is your opinion?
