A sacrectomy removes part or all of the sacrum, the triangular bone at the base of the spine, usually to take out a tumour such as a chordoma with a clear margin of healthy tissue.

A 2025 narrative review in the Journal of Clinical Medicine describes sacral chordoma as a rare, slow-growing but locally invasive tumour that responds poorly to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which makes surgery with clear margins central to treatment.

The level of removal matters because the sacral nerve roots control walking, bladder, bowel and sexual function, and the review links keeping the S3 roots with better bladder and bowel function.

The review notes that between one-third and two-thirds of patients have wound problems after sacrectomy, and recovery involves a long stay and rehabilitation.

In a 101-case series it cites, overall survival for primary tumours was 79% at five years and 59% at ten years, and care needs a multidisciplinary team experienced in this surgery.

Fit-to-fly window: there is no fixed aviation figure after spinal surgery, so the surgeon clears you once you can sit for the flight and walk safely; an aisle seat helps.

A Delhi estimate for sacrectomy is usually built from these parts:

• Imaging before surgery: MRI or CT and fitness checks.
• Theatre time and monitoring: for the levels treated.
• Spinal implants: screws, cages or artificial discs.
• Extent: partial or total.
• Nerve roots: which are kept affects function.
• Reconstruction: of the spine and pelvis.
• Stay: long, with rehabilitation.

Sacrectomy is a rare and complex operation, and costs in Delhi are likely to exceed the range above, so a detailed specialist assessment comes first.

Spinal surgery in Delhi NCR is carried out by both orthopaedic spine surgeons and neurosurgeons, and some units use navigation for complex levels; ask which team and tools your plan involves.

India's national hospital standard is set by the National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers (NABH), a constituent board of the Quality Council of India whose standards are accredited by ISQua; you can check a Delhi hospital's current NABH status on the NABH website.

Delhi has a long record with international accreditation: India's first hospital to receive Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation, in July 2005, is in New Delhi, and JCI keeps a public list of accredited organisations.

International patients usually arrive at Indira Gandhi International Airport in south-west Delhi; allow for road travel time, as hospitals are spread across Delhi and the neighbouring NCR cities.
