The Discseel® Procedure Vs. Spinal Fusion


See How the Procedures Compare:


For over 100 years, physicians have been performing spinal fusions on their patients, only for a large portion of them to fail to resolve their symptoms. This life-altering procedure has led to some of the highest percentages of surgical failures and opioid dependence among surgical patients.


So the real question is:  why are physicians not recommending a procedure that has greater success? It’s simple. An average spinal fusion patient is worth between $250,000 and $750,000 in insurance payouts over a patient’s lifetime. It was the high failure rate of fusions that led to the creation of the Discseel® Procedure. So how do the two procedures compare to each other? Here are some facts.


  • In over 40% of patients that receive a spinal fusion, the fusion does not address the long-term source of their pain.
  • At least 1/3 of all spinal fusion patients need a second or third fusion of their spine within 10 years
  • The Discseel® Procedure has been successful in permanently relieving back pain for 82% of patients, including those that had a previous failed spinal procedure, such as spinal fusion.
  • The Discseel® Procedure is a minimally invasive outpatient injection procedure, whereas spinal fusion is a highly invasive surgical procedure that leaves scars, hardware and requires days of recovery in the hospital.
