Laser Surgery Of Spine


Open procedures require large incisions and in removing affected parts. Laminotomy may also be performed utilizing minimally invasive procedures. In microdiscectomy, a laser fiber is passed through a needle and placed into the disc to vaporize the inner core of the disc. Another use of laser is in the treatment of herniated or ruptured disc.

Different types of spine surgery use laser technology. The recovery time is also less. Less damage means less pain and a shorter period of hospitalization. These techniques cause minimal damages to muscle tissues.


Minimally invasive surgical techniques use tiny incisions made in the skin through which small, specialized instruments are inserted. These procedures also require more anesthesias, operating time, and hospitalization and recuperation time. Open procedures require large incisions and muscle stripping.
