Major developments in the world of spine surgery is about 2 yrs. away from becoming mainstream in the US. Zalatoris has had the Band-Aid surgery better known as a microdiscectomy...Tiger had 4 of these band-aid surgeries before having an ALIF at TBI. Yes, it is a fusion and a big operation which causes adjacent level disease in 5-10 yrs. time (leading to possible fusion at adjacent level) less if you're a professional golfer bounding 100's golf ball a day on the range. The future in spine surgery is not fusion but motion preservation ..disc replacement (4 companies have commercial devices on US market) and total joint replacement for the lumbar spine(3Spine). Will has to make some big decisions as his back is jacked up and his future as a world class golfer is in jeopardy.
