1. Minimally Invasive: With smaller incisions compared to traditional open surgery, endoscopic spine surgery minimizes damage to muscles and tissues, resulting in less postoperative pain and a quicker recovery.
  2. Reduced Scarring: The smaller incisions lead to minimal scarring, contributing to improved cosmetic outcomes and patient satisfaction.
  3. Faster Recovery Time: Patients typically experience shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery periods compared to conventional spine surgery, allowing them to return to their daily activities sooner.
  4. Precise Visualization: The endoscope provides high-definition, magnified views of the spine, enabling our surgeons to precisely target and treat the affected area with minimal disruption to surrounding structures.
  5.  Lower Risk of Complications: Due to its minimally invasive nature, endoscopic spine surgery is associated with a lower risk of complications, such as infection and blood loss, compared to traditional open procedures.

Conditions Treated with Endoscopic Spine Surgery:

Endoscopic spine surgery is a minimally invasive surgical technique that utilizes an endoscope, a thin and flexible tube with a light and camera, to perform procedures on the spine. This approach allows surgeons to access and treat spinal conditions with smaller incisions compared to traditional open surgeries. Here are some common endoscopic spine surgeries:

  1. Discectomy: Endoscopic discectomy involves the removal of a portion of a herniated or bulging disc that may be pressing on spinal nerves. This can relieve symptoms such as pain and numbness.
  2. Foraminotomy: An endoscopic foraminotomy is performed to widen the neural foramen, the opening through which spinal nerves exit the spine. This can alleviate pressure on nerves affected by conditions like foraminal stenosis
  3. Laminotomy: Endoscopic laminotomy involves the removal of part of the lamina, the back part of a vertebra, to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. It is often done for conditions like spinal stenosis.
  4. Facet Joint Decompression: Endoscopic procedures can be used to treat facet joint issues, such as arthritis or hypertrophy, by removing or modifying the tissue causing compression.
  5. Spinal Fusion (Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion – TLIF): Endoscopic TLIF involves placing a bone graft between vertebrae to promote fusion. This procedure is used to treat conditions like degenerative disc disease or instability.
  6. Epidural Steroid Injection: While not a surgery, endoscopic techniques can be used for epidural steroid injections to deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly to the affected spinal area, providing relief for conditions like spinal stenosis or disc herniation.
  7. Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty: These endoscopic procedures involve injecting bone cement into fractured vertebrae to stabilize and relieve pain caused by compression fractures.
