Microscopic Cervical Disc Surgery – A True Success Story

A patient came to us suffering from *weakness in all four limbs*, along with *severe neck pain and persistent numbness in the hands and feet*. Daily activities had become difficult, and her quality of life was significantly affected.

Using *advanced microscopic spinal surgery*, at King’s College Hospital – Jeddah Neurosurgery specialty centre  we performed a *cervical disc removal* procedure to relieve spinal cord compression — a minimally invasive and highly precise technique

Post-surgery results:

  • Significant improvement in limb strength  
  • Complete relief from pain  
  • Numbness in the extremities began to fade noticeably  
  • The patient was *discharged just one day after surgery*  
  • She is now able to *resume normal life and activities* safely and comfortably

This case illustrates how working with a dedicated multidiscipilinary team with *early diagnosis* and * latest innovative techniques* can improve quality of life. Speaking on this occasion, Dr Rizwan (Chief Governance Officer) said, “such minimally invasive  and innovative techniques are at the very core of King’s College Hospital – Jeddah making us one of best hospitals & neurosurgery institute in Jeddah and Saudi Arabia”
