Failed Back Surgery? Minimally Invasive Revision Options From Dr. Wolff
If a previous spinal fusion or back surgery hasn’t relieved your pain — or made it worse — Dr. Craig Wolff offers minimally invasive revision surgery and hardware removal to correct Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS), often without another major fusion.
Overcoming Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS)
At NextGen Spine Center, we specialize in treating patients suffering from pain caused by previously failed spinal surgeries (FBSS), including instrumented fusions, with cutting-edge techniques to restore your quality of life.
What is Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS)?
Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) is defined as persistent or recurring pain in the lumbar or cervical spine following one or more spinal surgeries. It affects patients who did not achieve the desired outcome from their initial procedure, leading to ongoing discomfort and limited mobility.
More Info
Common causes include scar tissue formation, nerve damage, incorrect diagnosis, or hardware failure. Many patients who have undergone spinal fusions now suffer from pain above and below the fusion, a condition known as Adjacent Segment Disease. Symptoms may include chronic back pain, leg pain, arm pain, numbness, or weakness.

More Info
- Revision Surgery: Minimally invasive procedures to correct previous issues, such as nerve compression or scar-tissue removal, using cutting-edge technology.
- Hardware Removal: Often the hardware was either placed incorrectly, or it has migrated from its intended location and is now putting pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots. This hardware can be removed through a minimally invasive procedure utilizing a small opening and special instrumentation.
