MIS Closed Surgery

 

Spine Laser Surgery

 

Spinal Disc Laser Surgery or Percutaneous Laser Disc Decompression (PLDD) is an advanced and modern method which uses the heat from the laser to evaporate soft tissues (Disc Nucleus) in your spine to decompress areas causing you pain. In many spine laser surgery procedures, no incision is necessary, which means there are less risks for complications, and a faster recovery time. PLDD decompresses the bulging disc pressing on your spinal nerves, which is the cause of ongoing chronic back pain and sciatalgia, but also prevents the disc from bulging again in the future

 

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS) 

 

Disc Laser Surgery is a minimally invasive spinal procedure which laser fiber optic is inserted through a fine needle to the lower back and directly into the spinal disc to start decompression.

It’s a quick and relatively painless procedure that leaves no scarring because it doesn’t require incisions

Other surgeries, such as spinal laminectomy or fusion, require large amounts of cutting and removing of the spinal bones and muscles

This is why laser surgery is a good approach for those looking at minimally invasive options

Endoscopic spine surgery is also another minimally invasive surgery by using an endoscope lenz to do operation inside the spinal canal under Endovision

 

How Safe is Spine Laser Surgery?

 

Spine Laser surgery has very low risk of complications, and a large majority of patients experience little to no discomfort at all. Some pain at the needle injection site is the most common side effect. There are many testimonials from the patients who have had their pain resolved with laser surgery with no complications and quick recovery times. In comparison to other spinal surgeries, laser surgery has less risks, and an equal to greater success rate in relieving back pain. Advances in laser technology have allowed this modern surgery to help with herniated discs, as opposed to the old school spinal laminectomy, which require cutting open of the lower back and lumbar area

 

?What are the benefits spinal disc surgery with laser

 

The surgery is completed without application of General Anesthesia. and will perform under Local Anesthesia

It has a high accuracy

The results are considerably successful. According to a research on 12539 patients in United States, the rate of success is more than 80%

Nowadays in many developed countries, this method is employed for the spinal disc treatment

Unlike other methods such as Discogel and Ozone which are forbidden in the United States, this method is approved by FDA

The procedure will proceed in 20 to 30 minutes only (In Day Clinic)

NO need to hospitalization

Usually, the post-op symptoms are reduced in short period of the time

Since this method only uses a fine needle, there will be no wound on the skin

Since using this method does not induce any damage to the muscles of the back or waist and no bone is resected, therefore the procedure will not lead to the instability of the vertebrae and hence the patience will not experience any additional problem after the surgery

This method does not induce adhesion or stenosis around the spinal canal and spinal cord. (Vs open surgery)

No damage will occur to the spinal nerves which is typically common in the open surgery

Does not require to take long time rest after surgery and patient can go back to work in a short time

The possibility of infection is very very low

The patient will not suffer from the side effects of General Anesthesia

The patient is able to spend his recovery time at the comfort of home with their family, instead of staying at the hospital

Therefore, it is more cost-effective and economical for the patients
