For lumbar spine surgery

For lumbar spine surgery, you may want to contact Guy Van Zijl. Guy is a sportsman, who takes great care of his body. When he started suffering back pain, Guy just ingored it for a number of years. When he was not able to practise sports to the level he used to do, he decided to do something about it. Guy initially came to Ghent for a microdiscectomy by Dr. Luc De Waele. It was a complete success. About six months later he got a bad cold that made him caugh heavily, and felt pain in his back again. He had a scan performed and came back to Ghent for X-rays in flexion / extension. When reviewing the scan and the X-rays, Dr. De Waele came to the conclusion that Guy suffered an inflammation on another level of his spine and suggested a series of three infiltrations to cure the inflammation. The three infiltration were performed right after the consultation with Dr. De Waele and at 10 days distance in the following weeks.
