Myelopathy Patient Walks Again after Lumbar Surgery

by Synapse Orthopedic Group | 10 years ago

Meet Juan. He injured his back at work resulting in losing feeling in the nerves of his legs. Due to the damaged discs from this injury, he had problems feeling his toes and walking became extremely difficult. At Synapse Orthopedic Group, Edwin Haronian MD was able to diagnose him with Myelopathy. Haronian performed lumbar surgery on Juan and only two weeks after surgery, Juan was walking and feeling his nerves again.
