Endoscopy

This is one of the most advanced endoscopic techniques in the world. It involves making an incision of only 5 mm to access the spine, remove herniated disc material or bone spurs, and relieve pressure on the spinal nerves in the cervical region. This ensures maximum precision and minimal damage to surrounding tissue.

The procedure uses a high-definition endoscopic system that gives the surgeon a clear internal view, allowing for safe and effective removal of the source of compression whether it's a herniated disc or an overgrown ligament without damaging healthy muscles or bones.



It's advantages:

• Very small incision, minimal scarring (only 0.5 cm)
• Minimal muscle damage, less post-operative pain
• Reduced blood lossm, safer procedure
• Faster recovery early ambulation (often within 24 hours)
• Short hospital stay often 1–2 days
• Lower risk of infection due to smaller wound
• Precise removal of disc & bone spur, direct visualization during surgery

What Makes Endoscopic Spine Surgery Special?

Direct Visualization Inside the Spine

Direct Visualization Inside the Spine

The endoscopic camera is inserted directly into the affected area, providing high-definition, magnified images on screen.

Immediate Treatment During the Procedure

If the surgeon encounters:

• Herniated disc (slipped disc)
• Calcified disc material
• Bone spur formation
• Ligament thickening

These can be precisely removed or shaved (drilled) immediately during the same procedure.

Targeted Decompression

The surgeon can directly decompress the compressed nerve root with minimal disruption to surrounding muscles and tissues.

Who Is It Suitable For?

Endoscopic spine surgery is ideal for patients who:

• Have lumbar or cervical disc herniation
• Experience sciatica or nerve compression symptoms
• Have spinal stenosis with localized compression
• Want the least invasive surgical option
• Prefer faster recovery and minimal downtime
• Are concerned about cosmetic scar outcome

It is especially suitable for working individuals or active patients who wish to return to normal activities as soon as possible.
