Failed Neck Surgery

Patients with back or neck pain often fear that their surgeries will fail to repair their injuries or cure their pain. Before you consider having neck surgery, you should thoroughly research your surgery options to make an informed decision. At The Bonati Institute, for example, our success rate for minimally invasive procedures is greater than 90 percent, and we can sometimes correct problems that other surgeons failed to solve.

Neck surgery can fail for a number of reasons:

• The surgery is successful, but the original problem happens again after surgery
• Bone grafts fail to take or implanted devices fail
• Tissue does not heal properly
• The problem was not diagnosed correctly in the first place
• Scar tissue from the surgery complicates healing or causes other pain

Treating Failed Neck Surgery

Failed neck surgery is treated the same way as other back problems. Your doctor will probably prescribe drugs, physical therapy, rest, or exercise. In some cases, another surgery will be necessary. Consider having it done at The Bonati institute, where our world-renowned surgeons perform minimally invasive, laser-assisted procedures that correct pain.

We measure the success of your neck surgery by whether it relieves your pain and improves your quality of life again. We would be happy to review your recent MRI scan, if it was taken within the last 12 months, at no cost or obligation and give you our opinion on whether our services would be right for you.
