I'd like to ask you if once you have removed the inflamed disc material, you then substitute it with other matherial in order to keep the height and avoid instability. In the video It seems you put some solution at the end of the aspiration of the disc matherial. Thank you so much! Beatiful work!

“Most of them don’t know half the diagnoses”. Most? That’s a false statement bordering on slanderous. Really reduces your credibility when you say things like this.

U cut these nerves that control movement? Who will be liable if that happened? You?

I just had L4/L5 fusion and L3,L4,L5 laminectomy. One cage and during surgery there was a dural tear, because of nerves… Anyways how long will it take to heal? It has been 5 weeks and Im horribly sad and my legs are weak and have pretty bad nerve pain, two weeks ago I had epidural injection . Just looking for some hope??? 24:31

I used to believe in the Chiropractic philosophy until neck adjustments were linked to stroke and I had a run in with a Chiropractor.

Another Dr Light Switch Success Story, simply amazing!!!

Great job

I searched up corvette lol

Hello, I’m from Sri Lanka, and I found this video very helpful. I’m also pregnant and undergoing a similar situation. Could you please provide more details about the procedure or the care involved? I would appreciate any advice or additional resources. Thank you

I’m asking a question???? What part of nerve roots get decompressed with ACDF?

This is just great to see!

How much for L 4 5 and c3 4 herniations?

Keep pushing!!!! Thank you for your service!

Salute to you doctor Deuk !

Thank you doctor from the bottom of my heart. I was thinking about artificial disc but not anymore. You saved me literally . I would rather GO with Deuk Laser.

1:05:04 - 1:05:13 so ACDF is decompression for spine and nerve roots?? Which are of the nerve roots get decompressed with ACDF? Foramina? I'm trying to learn. Please let me know

I have to get an epidural shot. The receptionist called today and said MRI that was scheduled for tomorrow would be cancelled due to insurance, because I already had one earlier this year in like Feb, so the receptionist said the doctor would use that MRI instead to see where she would do the injection. But I'm a little hesitant with that, because I'm in more pain now then I was when that MRI was taken and it's mainly at my bra line (midback) and lower right side at the top of my butt, and the top of my neck, and I keep severe headaches almost like migraines or tension headaches. I've also been diagnosed with scoliosis. Any advice from anyone it will be much appreciated?

How could they not know when its supposed to be when its guides by xray😳 Ive had my second today. Know the history of those who treat you! Especially serious procedures like this. Even my neuro surgeon was ine of the top. My car accident irritated my injury but not enough for another surgery.

Medicare can pay for this?

CAN`T WATCH THIS GUY ! constant complaining . glad that ain`t me lying there

How can I fix a facet joint degeneration and inflammation at the lowest three disc levels please?

Maybe I’m going about this wrong. I have this procedure coming up to hopefully care for my spinal canal stenosis. Today is November 10th 2024 and on the 20th I have the procedure done. Call me skeptical but I’m looking up all the negatives, I’d rather my doctor just sign off on my medical retirement for my local government job but she insists on trying several procedures before accepting defeat. I have been dealing with pain in my left arm since 2019 and my last PCP kept blowing it off with an X-ray and saying I just pulled a muscle. After my near death experience earlier this year, I changed primaries and decided to see if they can figure this out. They going spinal stenosis between c4-6 moderate on my left side. I’ve been to and am still going to PT and pain management, I’m hoping for the best while preparing for the worst. Am I wrong for doing so?

What's a cost in general for taking care of pinched nerves from disc bulging and or for disc herniation i know it depends but just a rough estimation?

this is a must watch for anyone with a back problem.

Gouda cheese

Its work in multiples hernied discs?

Doc , what are the symptoms of C4 C5?

I've had a fusion at C5-C6 which then caused the joint above the fusion and below the fusion to fail because of the extra torque put on those joints. So, I am not a big fan of fusion. Replacement disc were inserted above and befow the fusion and they have been there now for about 18 years with zero problems.

This doctor's sassiness😂😂😂

Pain management is a racket. The doctors let you suffer until you agree to undergo expensive procedures so they make the most money. If you complain, they’ll cut back your meds and make you suffer even more - until you can’t take it. If you escalate to medical boards you are blamed as a drug-seeking addicted scumbag. It’s a one way street of increasingly costly and risky: steroid injections, ablation, stimulators, and then stabilizing screws. After the pain management crooks have reamed you out and ruined your spine - they hand you off to the surgeons that really up the game with fusions and irreversible procedures that seal your fate of a lifetime of constant, severe pain with no path to success. After all of them have run through you billing out every possible option - they release the drugs you need to avoid jumping off a bridge - or - some just dump you and cut you off from meds to help the pain that they caused. This entire industry is filled with greedy, immoral maggots that prey on people begging for help with their horrific pain.

How can I participate in your live surgeries so I can ask Dr. Deuk a question? Thank you!

Having this done in a couple of weeks. I had L4-S1 six years ago but L5-S1 never fused and now L2/3 joined in the disaster. Fascinating. I had C3-7 done six months ago.

I lost 20% muscle movement in my hips and legs after the injection. When I told the doctor I was having complications he got rid of me in 5 minutes. Now I’m trying to figure out how to move forward

Thanks for sharing your work. I had L5 S1 fusion recently and this explains a lot about my experience.

Some patients comes out fine after these types of surgeries, but unfortunately, some patients don't come out free of pain and well; as for me, I never came out well after my spinal fusion at the L5-S1 back in 2020 and it made my life a living hell day by day, all year around none stop, and now I'm a dependent of a wheelchair for life and loosing my right leg little by little because I have horrible pain and intense numbness and tingling sensation as well; and according to my new MRI results shows my condition is progressing unfortunately; it really sucks living in torment none stop; these are the types of surgeries that people need to really think about it before going into the O.R.!!!

Sir I am from India. I have c4 - c5 c5-c6 disc buldge . How can I contact you? And cost of procedure?

Insurance don't cover the procedures at this guy's place?

I have been personally doing cervical and lumbar disc replacement for the last 15-20 years. It works wonderfully well in more than 95% of the patients provided your indications are right and your technique is good and the type of implant chosen is of good quality; you seem to be sensationalizing the disc complications. The one complication you have shown in the cervical spine is not even cervical disc replacement. That is an interbody titanium cage used for fusion that has been used wrongly by a surgeon without putting a plate; you know it very well if you are really a spine surgeon, really, so please stop sensationalizing just to get more reviews and more patients. I am getting a little harsh, but this is the reality. Thank you.

but you'll die happy

So no rods and screws ? No tib cuts ? Minimally invasive ? If so i am planning to get it done has ruined my life

I am on Medicare and got 4 shots which all works fine. Find a good doctor and a good facility if you really need it ! A second opinion may be a good idea!

Why was the team not fully aware of how to remove the implant before opening?

Wait, you just said the revision rate was the same. Bit if it's the same why wouldn't you replace the discs so that the patient has a better range of motion??

y strap is amazing, a slight stretch and yank decompress the entire upper spine. These people are haters

Hi @Dr. Deuk, I had a laminectomy - discectomy of the L4-5, L5-S1 between 2013 and 2019. I'm left with saddle anesthesia, instability, and pain. I'm disabled because of my injury. My question is, is it possible to restore the lamina with a bone graph to remedy/ (help with) instability in the spine? I thank you in advance.

just got MRI and was told i have 4 levels bad in my neck and wanting to fuse ....can you help?

Thank You!

how can I get notified in advance of other live surgery where I am able to ask questions real time?

Discitis is a nightmare scenario

If the herniation is posterior, and you are entering the disc laterally, how do you get to the posterior aspect where the herniation is?
