Anyone who is not weighing risk with any surgery is a fool, especially spinal surgery. Recovery time could be as little as two-three months, but could be multiples of that if there are any complications. There just isn’t enough information to make a definitive call, and when you’re talking about a $10M investment you do all the due diligence possible. An organization as risk adverse as the Flames makes question where they stand on this.

What complications have they found more common in this surgery than fusion?
