Endoscopic Spine Surgery

Endoscopic spine surgery is used for decompression of nerves and treating spinal conditions with precision.

Endoscopic spine surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a small camera (endoscope) to access and treat spinal conditions. This advanced technique involves making tiny incisions, reducing tissue damage, and allowing for a faster recovery compared to traditional open spine surgery.

How it works:

A small incision is made in the back.
A thin tube with a camera (endoscope) is inserted through the incision.
Surgical instruments are used through the endoscope to remove herniated disc material, bone spurs, or other tissue causing pain.

Common conditions treated with endoscopic spine surgery:

Herniated discs
Spinal stenosis
Degenerative disc disease

Benefits of endoscopic spine surgery:

Smaller incisions, leading to less scarring.
Reduced blood loss.
Faster recovery time.
Lower risk of infection.
Less pain after surgery.
Potential for earlier return to normal activities.

While endoscopic spine surgery offers numerous advantages, it’s important to consult with a qualified spine surgeon. Dr Ananth’s expertise will help determine if it’s the right treatment option for your specific condition.
