Using advanced computer-assisted navigation and 3D imaging technology, our board-certified spine surgeons deliver precise, safe, and highly effective treatment across the full spectrum of spinal conditions, including:
"As much as necessary, as little as possible — by adopting cutting-edge,minimally invasive yet maximally effective techniques. We cover the entirespectrum of spine surgery with precision, dedelivered by one hand under one roof”— Dr. Eslam Darwish
Our patient-centered approach emphasizes smaller incisions, reducedpostoperative pain, faster recovery, and superior clinical outcomes,enabling patients to return to their normal lives as quickly and safely aspossible.
We specialize in comprehensive spine surgery, delivering advanced treatments with a patient-tailored approach. Whether you are experiencing back pain, neck pain, disc prolapse, spinal stenosis, fractures, tumors, infections, spondylolisthesis, or spinal deformities, our expert spine surgeons provide integrated and personalized care.
We combine:
Our specialists manage the complete spectrum of spinal disorders , from common degenerative conditions to complex deformities and revision cases
Scoliosis is a condition where the spine curves sideways in an abnormal 'S' or 'C' shape. While commonly associated with children and teenagers, scoliosis can also develop or progress in adults due to spinal degeneration or untreated adolescent scoliosis.
Kyphosis is an exaggerated forward curve of the upper back, giving a slouched or humped appearance. If left untreated, it can lead to pain, mobility issues, and complications.
1. Postural Kyphosis: Flexible and often correctable through posture training and physical therapy.
2. Scheuermann’s Kyphosis: A more rigid curve common during adolescence; may require bracing or surgery.
3. Congenital Kyphosis: Caused by abnormal spinal development before birth, often needing early surgical intervention.
A disc prolapse occurs when the soft center of an intervertebral disc pushes through its outer layer, pressing on nearby nerves and causing pain or neurological symptoms.
Abnormal growths in or around the spine, which can be primary (originating in the spine) or secondary (spreading from other bodyparts).
Typesof Spinal Tumors
Spinal fractures can result from trauma, osteoporosis, or tumors.
Symptoms
Spinal stenosis is a condition characterised by the narrowing of the spaces within your spine, which can put pressure on the spinal cord and nerves. This can occur in both the lumbar spine (lower back) and the cervical spine (neck). The condition can lead to pain, numbness, weakness, and in more severe cases, difficulty with mobility and daily activities.
A spinal infection is a rare but serious condition where bacteria, fungi, or other pathogens infect the tissues of the spine. These infections can affect the bones (vertebrae), the discs between the bones, or the surrounding soft tissues. If left untreated, spinal infections can lead to severe complications, including permanent damage to the spine and even life-threatening conditions like sepsis.
Spondylodiscitis: A specific type of spinal infection that affects both the intervertebral disc and the adjacent vertebrae. This infection typically occurs when bacteria or fungi spread to the spine from another part of the body, such as the urinary tract, lungs, or skin. In some cases, spinal infections can also occur after surgery or invasive medical procedures.
A congenital condition where part of a vertebra fails to form properly, leadingto spinal deformities such as scoliosis or kyphosis
Types of Hemivertebrae
Spondylolysis: is a stress fracture or defect in a part of the vertebra called the pars interarticularis. It most commonly occurs in the lower back (lumbar spine), particularly in athletes who engage in sports that involve repetitive twisting or overextension, such as gymnastics or football. This small fracture can weaken the spine, making it vulnerable to other conditions.
Spondylolisthesis: occurs when one vertebra slips forward over the one below it. It is often the result of spondylolysis, but it can also develop from other causes such as age-related degeneration, trauma, or congenital spinal defects. This condition can lead to nerve compression and cause significant pain and mobility issues.
Spinal health requires a multidisciplinary approach combining surgical precision with advanced rehabilitation. At FUH, we bring German-standard orthopedic expertise to the heart of Dubai Silicon Oasis.
