Minimally invasive spine surgery is aimed at stabilizing the vertebral bones and spinal joints that are often a result of conditions such as spinal instability, herniated discs, and spinal tumors. Minimally invasive approaches can be faster, safer, and require less recovery time. These surgeries are performed as outpatient procedures and utilize only local anesthesia so that there is less risk for an adverse reaction to general anesthesia. Minimally invasive spine surgery is facilitated by utilizing a small incisions and guiding instruments through these incisions. It is an alternative to traditional open surgical procedures performed to treat different spinal disorders. Spine surgery that is performed minimally invasively offers many potential benefits including small incisions, less cutting through soft tissues, and less post-operative pain. You will be advised spine surgery if you have a back pain that has not gotten better with another treatment such as medicine or physical th...
