Surrey, BC - March 16, 2010 - In many situations, a lower back condition can lead to lower back spinal fusion surgery. It is estimated 126,000 spinal fusion surgeries occur a year in the USA and since 1996 the number of surgeries has increased 116%. The group that has had the greatest increase in lower back spinal fusion are adults over 60.
