Acibadem Sistina Hospital has introduced a special package for the surgical treatment of cervical disc herniation with a promotional 20% discount. The package provides comprehensive patient treatment and rehabilitation and includes: surgical intervention, hospital stay, all necessary laboratory tests, postoperative patient monitoring, and physical therapy at the “Premium” Sports Center. The procedures are performed by an experienced team of neurosurgeons, using state-of-the-art medical equipment and modern surgical techniques.

 

“At Acibadem Sistina Hospital, advanced technology is used in neurosurgical interventions of the cervical spine, including microneurosurgical techniques that enable high precision and minimal trauma, as well as the implantation of modern implants (cages), and in certain cases, artificial discs. These methods significantly contribute to safer procedures, improved stability, and faster patient recovery. With timely diagnosis, proper treatment, and lifestyle modifications, cervical disc herniation is a condition with an excellent prognosis and a full return to normal life,” emphasizes Assoc. Prof. Dr. Milenko Kostov, specialist in neurosurgery.

 

 

Neck pain is very often underestimated and attributed to fatigue, stress, or poor posture. However, in some patients, it may be the first sign of cervical disc herniation—a condition that, if it progresses, can lead to serious neurological damage. It is a degenerative disease in which displacement of the intervertebral disc occurs, causing pressure on the nerve roots or the spinal cord. This may result in pain radiating to the shoulder and arm, numbness, muscle weakness, and even impaired balance and fine motor skills.
