Over 8 years Mr.Richard Kapita , Minister from Govt of Zambia, Africa experienced continually worsening back pain that ultimately stopped him from travel and work. He had to undergo a Lumbar interbody fusion spine surgery for complete recovery at Yashoda Hospital under spine surgeon Dr.Kiran Kumar Lingutla
True to my doctor's words though, I was surprised by the quick recovery and mobilization on the second day after surgery. Richard Kapita says "you are a magician and not a doctor". I am thankful for having another shot at life without being paralyzed.

Mr. Andrew Sakala, retired Airforce pilot from Zambia who had 2 previous unsuccessful spine surgeries overseas presented with infected failed back surgery syndrome. He was incapacitated with pain, loss of function and inability to walk. He underwent 2- stage, 360 degrees back and front revision spine surgery at Yashoda Hospital, Somajiguda.
First stage involved removal of previous infected implants, thorough debridement, decompression and extended fusion with cemented reimplantation of screws. Second stage involved anterior retroperitoneal lumbar decompression and tricortical iliac crest (autograft) anterior strut fusion to achieve anterior stability. He had 6 weeks of intravenous antibiotics following surgery.
He made a remarkable recovery and was able to walk independently and is pain free. Very good team effort and result at Yashoda Hospital Somajiguda, Hyderabad.

Taking place on October 16 each year, World Spine Day has become a focus in raising awareness of back pain and other spinal issues. #LoveYourSpine will highlight the importance of spinal health and wellbeing. Promotion of physical activity, good posture, responsible lifting and healthy working conditions will all feature as people are encouraged to look after their spines and stay active.
With an estimated one billion people worldwide suffering from back pain, it affects all age groups, from children to the elderly. It is the biggest single cause of disability on the planet, with one in four adults estimated to suffer from back pain during their lives. Prevention is therefore key and this year’s World Spine Day will be encouraging people to take steps to be kind to their spines.
