Endoscopic Spine Surgery

Endoscopic spine surgery is a minimally invasive surgical approach used to treat spinal disorders, such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and other spine-related conditions.

This method employs an endoscope—a thin, flexible tube with a camera and light at the end—inserted through a small incision to access the spine.

Key Aspects of Endoscopic Spine Surgery Minimally Invasive: Unlike traditional open spine surgery, endoscopic spine surgery uses small incisions, resulting in less tissue damage, less blood loss, and quicker recovery times.

Real-Time Visualization: The endoscope provides high-definition, real-time imaging, allowing surgeons to navigate and treat specific areas without disturbing surrounding tissues.

Precision and Accuracy: Endoscopic tools allow surgeons to target exact locations on the spine with precision, often leading to better outcomes, reduced scarring, and less postoperative pain. Shorter Recovery and Reduced Hospital Stay: Since it’s minimally invasive, patients can often return home the same day or with a shorter hospital stay, with quicker return to daily activities. Reduced Complications: Smaller incisions and less trauma to surrounding muscles and tissues reduce risks like infection and postoperative complications.
