Our Spine Surgery Options
At GMS Cyprus, we provide a comprehensive range of advanced spine surgery options designed to alleviate pain and restore mobility. Our minimally invasive techniques ensure quicker recovery times and reduced post-operative discomfort. Our offerings include:
Minimally Invasive Discectomy Surgery
Minimally Invasive Discectomy Surgery removes herniated disc material pressing on nerves or the spinal cord. A small incision and advanced tools reduce tissue damage and recovery time.
Minimally Invasive Disc Replacement Surgery
This procedure replaces a damaged or degenerative disc with an artificial one. The goal is to reduce pain, maintain spinal motion, and restore alignment for improved mobility.
Minimally Invasive Spinal Fusion Surgery
Minimally invasive spinal fusion surgery connects vertebrae to stabilize the spine, reduce pain, and restore function by addressing issues like damaged discs with less recovery time.
Minimally Invasive Kyphoplasty
Kyphoplasty treats spinal compression fractures caused by osteoporosis. A balloon is inserted to create space, and cement is used to stabilize the fractured vertebra.
Minimally Invasive Laminectomy and Laminotomy
These procedures relieve spinal pressure by removing all or part of the lamina. Often paired with discectomy, they enhance surgical access to herniated disc areas.
Spinal Cord Stimulator
A Spinal Cord Stimulator uses electrical currents to block pain signals. A trial device is tested before permanent implantation under the skin for long-term pain relief.
Endoscopic Spine Surgery
Endoscopic Spine Surgery uses advanced fiber-optic technology and effectively treats herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and stable spondylolisthesis with minimal disruption to spine stability. This precise approach reduces recovery time and eliminates the need for extensive incisions or spinal fusion in many cases.
Understanding Minimally Invasive Spinal Fusion Surgery at GMS Cyprus
Spinal fusion surgery is a procedure that links two or more vertebrae in the spine to eliminate motion between them. This can relieve pain caused by damaged discs, abnormal spine curvature, or unstable vertebrae due to injury or conditions like scoliosis or kyphosis.

FAQ About Minimally Invasive Spinal Fusion Surgery
Cyprus offers a unique blend of expert medical care, modern facilities, and a tranquil environment. GMS provides access to world-class surgeons and comprehensive medical services, all while enjoying the beauty and hospitality of Cyprus.
Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF) is a minimally invasive approach where the surgeon operates slightly to the side of the spine, minimizing disruption to muscles and nerves. It involves removing a damaged disc, placing a bone graft into the space, and using screws or rods for spinal support.
Recovery times vary, but patients typically experience reduced hospital stays and quicker healing compared to traditional surgery. Most patients can return to light activities within weeks and resume full activities in a few months.
Minimally invasive techniques use smaller incisions and advanced tools to reduce tissue damage, resulting in faster recovery, less postoperative pain, and minimal scarring compared to traditional open spinal fusion.
Benefits include:
- – Reduced recovery time: Smaller incisions mean quicker healing.
- – Minimal scarring: Smaller cuts result in better cosmetic outcomes.
- – Improved stability: Helps reduce pain and restore spinal alignment.
- – Preservation of muscle function: Minimizes tissue damage during surgery.
Extreme Lateral Interbody Fusion (XLIF) is performed on the side of the body to minimize impact on back nerves and muscles. The procedure replaces a damaged disc with a spacer to restore stability, often with screws or rods for support.
Testimonials
After a consultation with Dr. Amir, I was surprised to learn that my health insurance does not guarantee that he will be the surgeon to perform the procedure.
That is when I contacted GMS, who explained how I could have the surgery performed by the physician of my choice - which gave me peace of mind.
It is very important for me to share my experience as the service I received through GMS exceeded any similar experience in Israel:
From the beginning I was assigned a GMS representative from Israel, who explained in detail what my experience would be and answered all my questions about the operation and the treatment process. (Thanks, Roy!)
All I had to do was fill out the application form.
GMS representatives took care of everything themselves!
They contacted the insurance company on my behalf and even had them check the status of the application until the financial commitment for the surgery was received.
We agreed with on the surgical date, booked the flights at a convenient time for me and also dealt with the hotel reservation. The GMS staff even reviewed the menu and took any dietary restrictions into consideration on my behalf.
We were picked up from the airport in Larnaca, Cyprus where we met the wonderful Oria, who accompanied us throughout the entire visit and took care of every detail; from registration to preparation for the operation.
This is essentially a VIP service that made the entire experience relaxed and stress free. The assigned coordinators continued caring after my return to Israel. They were interested in my recuperation post operatively and also ensured all financial matters were dealt with; all this, by the way, without any commissions or payouts on my part, but directly with my insurance. In a word - an amazing experience! In short - I recommend it!
Thank to GMS, thank you Roy, thank you Uriah and thank you Dr. Oron.
I needed a unique procedure which is not performed in Israel and I turned to them.
Over a telephone conversation with GMS representative Roy, I felt caring attention and confidence that he would help in everything. He accompanied us throughout the entire process, before the flight and even after.
In addition to Roy, we would like to sincerely thank Oriya, our allocated Israeli speaking patient coordinator of the company in Cyprus.
Even before our departure, Oriya was in touch with us helping with any issues and made sure that we arrived fully prepared - taking into account the smallest details; even to the point of finding out our food preferences, and despite the late hour of our arrival at the hotel, she ensured an exquisite meal was waiting for us in the room. Oriya greeted us upon arrival and truly made us feel like we were her personal guests. She accompanied us throughout the entire day of the operation - attentively, with endless care and continued patience.
I felt like I had a good friend with me in the hospital. This kind of treatment doesn’t happen very often... At the end of the day we parted, hugging each other, and Oriya gave recommendations on where to go and what to do in the time remaining before returning home.
I just don't have enough words to thank GMS and Oriya for everything. I can only recommend with a reassurance that those who need it should use their services.
Roy – thank you for your patience, quick responses (minutes!), availability, caring and clear explanations! You are inimitable! Oriya - you are amazing! Thank you for every smile, hug, help, guidance, explanation... really! You are simply amazing!
Every time I was asked by friends and family about the surgery, I immediately started talking about your amazing service! I felt warmth and love, and everyone who was with me felt the same! We never stop talking about you, and really, only good things!
You have entered our hearts! Thank you very much for everything! I hope to see you in the future, under different circumstances.
