| Summary: | Objective: surgical intervention for spinal pathologies in professional athletes represents a pertinent topic in contemporary sports medicine and neurosurgery, given the extended rehabilitation period and potential decline in competitive activity following spinal surgeries. In this clinical case we describe an innovative technique for stabilizing the lumbar spine in an elite adult professional athlete which enables rapid return to regular competitive activities without restrictions.Materials and methods: a clinical case involving the surgical treatment of lumbar spine instability with compression of neural structures caused by an intervertebral disc herniation is presented. An innovative method for spinal stabilization employing an interbody dynamic implant is outlined.Results: the implementation of this spinal stabilization method allowed an adult professional elite futsal player to resume active physical sport-specific activities without any limitations just three weeks post-surgery.Conclusion: this clinical observation illustrates that spinal fixation using this novel and original method ensures the stability of the operated segment during physical exertion of any intensity. |
