About Minimally Invasive Spine Surgeries

Minimally invasive spine surgery is an endoscopic surgery in which the specialized video cameras and instruments are inserted through incisions. These specialised instruments are used to access your spine and also to perform the operation. Your surgeons may also use different devices such as a fluoroscope, laparoscope, minimally invasive tubular retractor (MITR), and portals, instead of an endoscope.
Minimally invasive spine surgery requires minimal incisions, thus avoids the significant damage to the nearby spine muscles. These surgeries result in lesser pain and recovery period compared to traditional or open spine surgery.
