Minimally invasive spine surgery in Chennai

 

Minimally invasive spine surgery in India is done by surgeons who along with their expertise employs specialized tools to access the spine through small incisions. Modern technology is applied to minimize attributes such as tissue injury, bleeding, hospital stay, total size of incision. Dr Karunakaran, spine specialist in India provides best and affordable minimally invasive spine surgery. His expertise assesses the benefits and complications, medical evaluation, blood evaluation before consenting for the minimally invasive procedure. Besides, care is taken to stop medicines like ibuprofen, aspirin and blood thinners, before the operation.

The procedure is conducted in the presence of anaesthesia which may be regional or general. A small incision is made on the skin through which a tubular retractor is inserted which in turn travels through the soft tissues down to the backbone to reach the problem area.

The tubular retractor holds the muscles in place throughout the process. A small instrument that matches through the middle of the tubular retractor is used to remove bone or disc which in turn exits through the retractor. Some surgeries require more than one retractor and the entire process is guided by fluoroscopy or endoscopy.

Once the surgery is complete, the tubular retractor is removed and muscles are re-established at their original positions. The incision wound is stitched, stapled or glued. Once the minimally invasive surgical procedure is complete, antibiotics are employed to avoid infections and pain killers control pain after the surgery.

Patients could return home on the same day after the operation or after a couple of days. The recovery takes four to six months and one could return to work in a couple of weeks. The patient undergoes physiotherapy to regain stamina and boost the recovery process.

Minimally invasive techniques use specialised implants which act as internal brace. However patients prefer to use brace occasionally since they recover from pain in a couple of weeks.

Popular minimally invasive surgeries include micro-discectomy, laminectomy and minimally invasive lumbar fusion. Micro-discectomy is performed for patients who have pinched nerves which in turn cause pain in back and legs. A small portion of bone over nerve root is removed to decompress.

Laminectomy removes pressure from the nerve roots of the spine and relieves compression caused by spinal stenosis.

Minimally invasive lumbar fusion permanently fuses two or more bones which benefits conditions such as spinal stenosis, scoliosis, degenerative disc disease and spondylolisthesis.

Not all patients are eligible for minimally invasive spine surgery. A few safety parameters determine if the procedure could be applied or not and each surgery is customized for the patients involved. Other treatment options are considered before resorting to minimally invasive surgical procedures.

To prepare for minimally invasive surgery one must quit smoking and take up prescribed exercises to keep body and muscles in shape so that recovery time is minimized.

X rays and MRI scans are advised before the surgery and antibiotics are given before and after the surgery. Diet to be taken before night of surgery is also prescribed as a part of the preparations.
