Treatments for Spondylosis

The Bonati Arthroscopic Laser Cervical Decompression-Posterior Approach
The Bonati Arthroscopic Laser Cervical Decompression-Posterior Approach is one potential option for spondylosis patients.

The procedure is done from the back of the patient's neck to remove bone spurs and decompress enlarged ligaments that are compressing the spinal cord and nerves leading to the arms.

This procedure is usually employed to treat Degenerative Disc Disease and/or facet joint arthritis. However, patients who have had previous cervical fusions with residual pain can also benefit from it as well.

The Bonati Arthroscopic Laser Foramenoplasty of the Lumbar Spine

Another possible solution for spondylosis patients is The Bonati Arthroscopic Laser Foramenoplasty of the Lumbar Spine.

A foramen is the canal through which a nerve root exits the spine. Bone spurs, scar tissue or bulging and herniated discs that form as a result of Degenerative Disc Disease or spinal arthritis may narrow the foraminal canal, causing spinal stenosis or foraminal stenosis, conditions that typically cause leg pain.

Also, a foramen may be narrowed by a herniated disc or scar tissue from previous surgery. Problems from a herniated disc, bulging disc or scar tissue may also be treated with a Bonati Arthroscopic Laser Foramenoplasty of the Lumbar Spine.

A Bonati Arthroscopic Laser Foramenoplasty of the Lumbar Spine is performed through a small incision in the back while the patient is conscious under local anesthetic and a low-level IV sedation.

Since the patient is awake during surgery, anesthesia risk is minimal and post-operative recovery is shortened. After surgery the patient is prescribed a short course of physical rehabilitation.
