South Bend Spine In the News
New Spine Surgery Performed in Michiana
This news story details a new spine surgery called Extreme Lateral Innerbody Fusion for disc replacement. Spine Surgeon Dr. Thomas Mango with South Bend Orthopaedics is the first to perform this procedure in northern Indiana. The incision is made on the patient’s side, not the back, allowing for the muscles to be spread instead of cut and also allows the surgeon avoid large blood vessels and nerve endings in the back. Patients are normally up and walking within hours after surgery.
