Precision Correction for a Straight & Strong Spine
World-class surgical correction for adolescent and adult spinal deformities. Dr. Arun Saroha brings 25+ years of neurosurgical expertise to patients in Defence Colony.
Scoliosis is a complex three-dimensional deformity of the spine that involves more than just a simple curve. For families in Defence Colony, discovering that a child or adult has a spinal curvature can be overwhelming. Dr. Arun Saroha specialized in the comprehensive management of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) and Adult Degenerative Scoliosis, utilizing the most advanced correction technologies available globally.
Our goal in Defence Colony is not just to "straighten the spine" for aesthetic reasons, but to restore balance, prevent pulmonary complications, and eliminate the risk of long-term debilitating pain. By utilizing intraoperative neuromonitoring and robotic-assisted navigation, we ensure that every correction is performed with sub-millimeter precision, protecting the spinal cord throughout the entire redistribution process.
We provide specialized care for various types of spinal deformities for Defence Colony residents:
Scoliosis surgery is one of the most sophisticated procedures in neurosurgery. In Defence Colony, we follow a rigorous safety and optimization protocol:
Low-dose radiation full-spine imaging to measure exact Cobb angles and pelvic balance.
Custom 3D-printed braces for early curves to prevent the need for surgery in Defence Colony.
Real-time spinal cord testing (MEP/SSEP) ensuring 100% safety during correction.
If the spinal curve exceeds 45–50 degrees, surgical intervention is typically recommended for patients in Defence Colony. Dr. Saroha utilizes posterior spinal fusion with pedicle screw fixation—the gold standard for scoliosis correction. This involved placing titanium rods and screws to realign the vertebrae and hold them in place while the bones fuse together.
Recovery for our Defence Colony patients is often surprisingly quick. Most are walking within 24–48 hours and can return home within 5–7 days. Within 3-4 weeks, students can typically return to school, and by 3-6 months, they can resume light athletic activities. The result is a permanently balanced spine that grows correctly and allows for a lifetime of healthy, active living in Defence Colony.
State-of-the-art correction techniques for every stage of spinal deformity.
The definitive correction for adolescent scoliosis. Realignment using custom titanium rods to stop curve progression for young patients in Defence Colony.
Treating complex degenerative curves in adults in Defence Colony. Combining decompression and stabilization to relieve nerve pain and restore posture.
A non-fusion technique for growing children in Defence Colony, using flexible cords (tethers) to straighten the spine while preserving growth and mobility.
Addressing "hunchback" deformities (Scheuermann's disease) to restore a healthy profile and respiratory function for patients in Defence Colony.
Utilizing high-frequency electrical signals to track spinal cord integrity in real-time during every correction surgery for our Defence Colony patients.
Customized rehabilitation protocols focusing on posture training and core strengthening for long-term correction success for Patients in Defence Colony.
Treatment depends on curve severity. Bracing is often used during the adolescent growth spurt, while surgery is considered for curves over 45 degrees to prevent lifelong health issues in Defence Colony.
Yes. In fact, most of our patients in Defence Colony are standing and walking within 24–48 hours. The surgical correction stabilizes the spine, allowing for safe and immediate mobility.
Severe curvatures (over 70-80 degrees) can compress the chest cavity and restrict lung expansion. Early correction in Defence Colony protects your long-term respiratory health.
Yes. As we straighten the "C" or "S" shaped curve, patients in Defence Colony typically gain 1 to 3 inches in height immediately following the correction procedure.
There is a genetic component; if a parent or sibling from Defence Colony has scoliosis, the risk for other family members is higher, though many cases are "idiopathic" (unknown cause).
Most adolescent patients in Defence Colony can return to school 3 to 4 weeks after surgery, carrying light backpacks and avoiding heavy contact sports for about 6 months.
Modern internal fixation (rods and screws) is so strong that most patients in Defence Colony do not need an external brace following a major correction surgery.
Absolutely. We provide detailed evaluations of Cobb angles and skeletal maturity to help families in Defence Colony decide if surgery is the right step for their child.
