ACDF & Corpectomy Procedures
ACDF (Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion) & Corpectomy Procedures are advanced surgeries used to treat serious cervical spine disorders. These procedures relieve pressure on the spinal cord and nerves caused by disc herniation, degeneration, or trauma. At Aarka Hospital, Dr. M Amarnath Reddy offers expert ACDF and corpectomy surgery in Kurnool, ensuring precise treatment, pain relief, and long-term spinal stability.

- Herniated cervical discs

- Spinal cord compression (myelopathy)
- Nerve root compression (radiculopathy)
