Undergo Your Spine Surgery without any Trauma
Spine surgery done in the traditional manner could rectify various spine problems at the
same time it caused destruction of tissues, nerves, ligaments and other structures. To enter
the spine, surgeons used to extensively dissect the muscles of the vertebrae so that nerves
could be decompressed and herniated discs, thickened ligaments, nerve cysts and bone
spurs could be removed. This process damaged the tendons and caused scarring of the
muscles as well as needed longer time period for healing of wounds. In this open surgery
ligament were to be removed and portions of vertebral bones were also to be removed in
order to get access into the spine. This resulted in weakening of the spine. Minimal Invasive
Back Surgery has opened up a new avenue where surgery is possible without damaging
the spine and its adjoining tissues, ligaments and bones.
Lower Back Surgery done using minimally invasive method is done by making very small
incision through which tubular channels and endoscopes are placed so that surgeons could
reach the exact position in the spine and visualize the entire surgery. The incision is very
small, the scar is not visible and healing time required is also very less. Specialists involved
in minimal invasive surgery are neurosurgeons, orthopedic surgeons, pain management
physicians, physical therapists and others.
