Spinal Decompression Surgery

Spinal decompression surgery is a procedure aimed at relieving pain caused by compression of the spinal nerves. This surgery is recommended for patients whose symptoms persist despite medications or physical therapy.

Diagnosis

Before the surgery, the patient undergoes a thorough evaluation, which includes a general health check-up and diagnostic tests such as blood tests, MRI, X-rays, CT scans, and myelograms, to assess the severity of the condition and the patient's suitability for surgery.

Types of Spinal Decompression Surgery

Spinal decompression surgery can be performed using different techniques, depending on the patient's condition:
  • 1. Microdiscectomy: This procedure involves the removal of a small portion of the disc to alleviate pressure on the affected nerve.
  • 2. Lumbar Laminectomy: In this procedure, a small part of the lamina and ligaments above the spinal canal are removed to decompress one side of the canal.
  • 3. Laminotomy: The surgeon uses robotic arms to control surgical instruments and remove the damaged parts of the knee. The robotic system ensures sub-millimeter precision, allowing the surgeon to replace the damaged components with new implants.

When is Spinal Decompression Surgery Performed?

Spinal decompression surgery is typically recommended for patients experiencing:
  • Spinal compression
  • Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
  • Metastatic spinal cord conditions
  • Spinal injuries or fractures
  • Slipped discs

Hospital Stay

Patients typically stay in the hospital for 4-5 days following spinal decompression surgery under medical supervision.

Post-Surgery Restrictions

After the surgery, patients are advised to follow certain restrictions to aid recovery:

  • Avoid sitting for extended periods
  • Refrain from bending or twisting the waist
  • Do not lift objects heavier than 10 pounds
  • Avoid smoking

  • Infection
  • Bleeding
  • Numbness or pain
  • Blood clots (DVT)
  • Loss of bowel control
  • Nerve damage
  • Spinal fluid leakage
