Choosing Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery Part 1

Minimally invasive spine surgery uses laser techniques to allow for smaller and fewer cuts. This minimally invasive spine surgery allows the back patient to have a much shorter recovery time with less scarring of the spine.

Minimally invasive spine surgery can be used on many types of spine injuries or diseases. It can be done to help correct cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine problems such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease. Standard spine surgery uses an open back technique that produces a large scar and much post-operative pain.
