Dr. Mohit Muttha, a Consultant Endoscopic Spine Surgeon in Pune, recently played a pivotal role in a highly complex spine surgery performed at B J Medical College (BJMC) and Sassoon General Hospital. The expert surgical team successfully treated a female patient suffering from a severe fracture of the fourth lumbar vertebra (L4) and a broken pedicle, an injury that placed immense pressure on her spinal nerves and left her unable to walk. Utilizing the hospital's newly acquired O-Arm 3D imaging and computer-guided navigation system, Dr. Muttha and the team were able to place spinal screws with millimeter-level accuracy despite the severely shattered bone. Commenting on the challenging procedure, Dr. Muttha noted that the O-Arm technology allowed the team to visualize the patient's anatomy in real time, ensuring the implants were positioned accurately while completely protecting her nerves. Thanks to this high-precision intervention—provided entirely free of cost to the patient—she is recovering exceptionally well, has experienced complete relief from her back pain, and has already begun walking with assistance.
