Spinal Fusion Benefits Spinal fusion benefits often help alleviate pain from compression of spinal nerves due to excessive vertebral motion or slippage. The majority of patients who undergo a laminectomy with spinal fusion experience considerable relief from back pain symptoms from conditions such as spinal stenosis (Houten, 2003).
Recovery times after spinal fusion. After traditional open spinal fusion surgery, patients are often required to stay 2 â 3 days in the hospital for a monitored recovery. This is required because of the highly invasive nature of traditional open back surgery. Patients must be monitored to avoid infection, maintain circulation and reduce stiffness.
