How much does cervical disc surgery cost in Turkey?

The cost of cervical disc surgery depends on factors such as number of levels operated on; choice of fusion, disc replacement or posterior foraminotomy; the cage, plate or artificial disc used; length of hospital stay, and is set by the doctor after an examination. Under Turkish rules on the advertising of health services, prices are not published on our site; you can ask the doctor directly when you request an appointment.

Who is the best doctor for cervical disc surgery?

There is no single “best” doctor for everyone. The right doctor for you is experienced in cervical disc surgery, easy to reach, and explains the options clearly. Check whether the doctor lists this treatment on their profile, their specialty (orthopedic surgeon, neurologist, neurosurgeon), the overall picture of patient reviews and the clinic’s location, and ask for a clear written treatment plan, timeline and cost at the first consultation. For major treatments you have the right to a second opinion. “En İyi Hekim” (Turkish for “best doctor”) is our brand name: we do not rank doctors as “best” and rankings cannot be bought.

Is neck disc surgery risky?

It is a common operation in suitable patients and experienced hands, but because it is done close to the spinal cord it carries serious risks, though rare. Risks and expected benefits should be discussed in detail before surgery.

Disc replacement or fusion for a neck disc?

In fusion, two vertebrae are joined and there is no movement at that level; disc replacement aims to keep movement. Which is suitable depends on age, the level of the herniation and how worn the vertebrae are.

Will arm numbness go away after neck disc surgery?

Arm pain eases quickly in most patients; numbness and weakness can take weeks to months to recover, depending on how long and how badly the nerve was compressed.

Which doctor performs neck disc surgery?

Neck disc operations are performed by neurosurgeons and by orthopaedic and trauma surgeons who work in spine surgery. Neurologists guide diagnosis and non-surgical treatment.

What is cervical Disc Herniation Surgery?

A herniated disc in the neck is when the inner part of a disc between the neck vertebrae bulges out and presses on nerve roots running to the arm or on the spinal cord. Most patients improve with medication, physiotherapy and time, without surgery. Surgery is considered when arm pain does not settle despite treatment for long enough, when muscle weakness is getting worse, or when there are signs of pressure on the spinal cord (myelopathy). The most common method is anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF): the disc is reached through a small cut at the front of the neck, the herniation and the whole disc are removed, and a cage is placed in the space so the two vertebrae fuse. In selected patients, the disc can be removed by the same route and replaced with an artificial disc that aims to keep movement (cervical disc replacement). For some herniations that bulge to the side, the nerve root can be freed from the back of the neck under a microscope (posterior foraminotomy). In Turkey, neck disc operations are done mainly by neurosurgeons and also by orthopaedic surgeons who work in spine surgery; neurologists are involved in diagnosis, nerve conduction tests and non-surgical treatment.

How is cervical Disc Herniation Surgery done?

Neurological examination, MRI and EMG if needed to find the level of compression and its effect on the arm nerves
Assessing the response to non-surgical treatment and deciding on surgery
General anaesthesia; a small cut at the front or back of the neck
Removing the herniated disc and bony spurs under the microscope to free the nerve
Fusion with a cage and, if needed, a plate, or placement of an artificial disc, then usually 1–2 days of observation in hospital
