minimally invasive spine surgery
Minimally invasive spine surgery is a modern surgical technique used to treat spinal issues with less damage to the surrounding tissue compared to traditional open surgery. It involves smaller incisions, often the size of a dime, which allows the surgeon to access the spine using specialized tools and imaging technology. This approach typically leads to less pain, quicker recovery times, and shorter hospital stays, helping patients return to their normal activities sooner. It's commonly used for conditions like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and spondylolisthesis.
