Endoscopic spine surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that is used to treat various spinal conditions. This procedure involves the use of an endoscope, which is a thin, flexible tube with a camera and light attached to it, to visualize and access the spine.
In this blog, we will discuss the procedure and benefits of endoscopic spine surgery offered at Apollomedics Hospitals Lucknow.
Endoscopic spine surgery is performed under general anaesthesia. The surgeon makes a small incision and inserts the endoscope through the skin and muscle to access the spine. The endoscope provides a clear view of the spine, allowing the surgeon to perform the necessary procedure. The surgeon uses specialized instruments to remove the damaged or diseased tissue or bone, without damaging the surrounding tissues. Once the procedure is completed, the endoscope is removed, and the incision is closed.
Endoscopic spine surgery is a safe and effective procedure for treating various spinal conditions. It offers many benefits, including faster recovery, reduced risk of complications, and a high success rate.
