Endoscopic Spine Surgery
Minimally invasive spine surgery with camera
What is This Treatment?
Endoscopic spine surgery is a surgical technique performed with a special endoscope (camera) placed into the spinal canal. Since it is done through small incisions, muscle and soft tissue damage is minimized.
Benefits
- Very small incisions (8-10 mm)
- Minimal muscle tissue damage
- Early mobilization after surgery
- Cosmetically advantageous
Treatment Process
Can be performed under local or general anesthesia. The endoscope is placed into the spinal canal and under camera visualization, the herniation is removed or the canal is widened. Patients usually get up the same day.
