Precision Spine Care from Dr. Rajesh Bindal at Texas Spine & Neurosurgery

What Is Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF)?

Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) is a proven surgical technique used to treat herniated or degenerated discs in the cervical spine. This minimally invasive procedure relieves neck and arm pain by removing the damaged disc and stabilizing the spine.

At Texas Spine & Neurosurgery in Sugar Land, TX, Dr. Rajesh Bindal, a board-certified neurosurgeon, brings decades of expertise in spinal surgery and has pioneered advanced, minimally invasive techniques that improve outcomes and reduce recovery times.

How the Procedure Works

During your ACDF surgery, Dr. Bindal will:

  • Make a small incision at the front of the neck for optimal access.

  • Carefully remove the damaged disc and any bone spurs using microsurgical techniques to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves.

  • Place an artificial disc or bone graft to restore stability and maintain proper spacing between vertebrae.

  • Use real-time imaging to ensure precise placement of all components.

This procedure is performed under direct surgical visualization with the aid of advanced intraoperative X-ray technology for maximum accuracy and safety.

Recovery and Post-Op Expectations

After your surgery:

  • Most patients are able to go home within 24 hours.

  • A follow-up appointment with Dr. Bindal will typically be scheduled 2 weeks post-surgery.

  • You may be advised to take aspirin daily for two weeks to help prevent calcium buildup around the artificial disc.

Thanks to the minimally invasive approach, most patients experience a faster return to normal activities and significant relief from symptoms.
