I recently had the privilege of being treated by Dr. Abhijit Y Pawar who is also a pioneer of 3d Navigation guided (O-Arm) spine and scoliosis surgery in India, I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the exceptional care I received. From my very first consultation, Dr. Pawar took the time to explain every detail of the procedure, addressing all my concerns with patience and clarity.
The surgery itself was a success, and I am amazed by how well everything went. Dr. Pawars's skill and expertise were evident throughout the process. The level of professionalism and compassion exhibited by the entire team was truly outstanding.
Post-surgery, I was well-supported during my recovery, with Dr. Pawar ensuring that I had all the information I needed for a smooth healing process. I felt reassured knowing I was in such capable hands.I started walking 48 hours after my surgery and I could feel the significant difference with prescribed physiotherapy.I have been suffering with this condition for over 10 years, with only supplements and pain suppressors.
I highly recommend Dr. Pawar to anyone seeking surgical orthopedic care. His dedication to his patients and commitment to
excellence is truly commendable Thank you

Modern Spine And How Our Lifestyle Is Contributing To Spine Issues -

Back pain is a common health issue in India, and many lifestyle factors can increase the risk of developing spine disorder. In fact, one in five persons aged between 20 and 30 years suffers from spinal problem. Identifying the risk factors early in our lives can prevent our spine issues from becoming chronic. The earlier the diagnosis, the better the outcome. Dr Abhijit Pawar, Consultant, Spine and Scoliosis Surgery, Orthopaedics, Kokilaben Dhirubhai Amabni Hospital, Mumbai shares all you need to know:-

Spine Surgery and Minimally Invasive Techniques-

Abhijit Pawar, a consultant specializing in Spine and Scoliosis Surgery at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, emphasizes that age plays a critical role in open-back surgeries. Older patients often have conditions like heart disease and diabetes, which increase the risks of complications, infections, or hospital readmissions within 30 days after surgery.

“We counsel families that mobility is key to maintaining quality of life for elderly patients. Untreated conditions can leave them dependent and immobile. For patients at risk from general anaesthesia due to medical conditions, endoscopic spine surgery offers an alternative under local anaesthesia. While age is a factor in most surgeries, it is less so with minimally invasive spine procedures. Techniques like laminotomy, which only partially removes the lamina, help preserve spinal stability and reduce future risks,” he explains.

Minimally invasive techniques are becoming increasingly popular for elderly patients.

“According to the peer-reviewed journal articles, science is on the side of minimally invasive spine surgery, touting it as a safe and effective alternative to open-back surgery for older adults. Many surgeons and medical practices are slowly migrating toward adopting this technique. The endoscopic and minimally invasive technique is a permanent solution for many patients that allow them to preserve mobility and return to their routines and favourite activities. This minimally-invasive procedure is performed through a small tubular device. The surgery is performed under local or general anaesthesia, allowing the patient to leave the hospital the same day. After the disc protrusion is confirmed, a guide wire is inserted to the affected disc under fluoroscope guidance. An obturator tube is passed over the guide wire to push apart the tissue down to the disc and to move the nerve root out of the way. The working sleeve, through which the surgery will be performed, is slid over the dilating tube. The guide wire and dilator are then removed. The surgeon uses instruments to remove degenerative and extruded portions of the disc nucleus. Because only enough of the disc is removed to reduce pressure inside the disc, the spine remains stable. The foramen and nerves are inspected to confirm successful decompression. The instruments and sleeve are removed. Because no muscles or bones are cut during the procedure, recovery is fast and scarring is minimized. The patient may need a day of bed rest after the procedure and physical therapy,” adds Pawar.
