Dr. Vikas Gupte

Dr Vikas Gupte is a much admired and respected Neuro and Spine surgeon at Fortis Mulund, with a glorious stint of over 25 years in treating debilitating and painful chronic nerve and spine disorders. With his penchant for minimal invasive spine surgeries, Dr Gupte has set many a benchmark in performing highly complex correction techniques for injuries of the spine through the endoscopic route. His high caliber training in minimal invasive and endoscopic spine surgery, and spine injury management at Wooridul Spine Hospital, Seoul, South Korea comes to the fore at Fortis Mulund, one of India’s best hospitals for neuro and spine treatment, as he adroitly harnesses a broad spectrum of minimal invasive surgical interventions for spinal disorders. These include Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy (PELD), total endoscopic lumbar surgery for lumbar disk herniation and degenerative canal stenosis. Tubular micro endoscopic surgeries also known as micro-endoscopic decompression, to take pressure off the nerves to relieve chronic back pain, Vertebral augmentation implant, balloon kyphoplasty, and vertebroplasty techniques to treat spinal compression fractures, as well as spinal fusion surgery using minimal invasive techniques, to relieve the painful pressure off the spine. Dr Gupte specialized expertise is evident in the way he performs the demanding and highly complex minimal invasive Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF) and Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (PLIF) procedures. These solutions address the cause of back pain and keep the spine stable by fusing two or more vertebrae together. The challenging surgery includes using rods and screws, and bone grafts to stabilize the spine. Minimal invasive endoscopic techniques are also used for cervical spine surgery and micro-endoscopic cervical discectomies are regularly done. Minimal invasive correction of spinal deformities using spinal navigation are also done. Whether it’s a persistent back pain or a debilitating spine injury, Dr Vikas Gupte rises to the occasion to treat both simple and complex conditions with equal expertise and care at Fortis Mulund.
