How it Works
Most neck conditions are caused by displaced tissue pressing against the spinal cord or nerve roots, with disc material and vertebral bone being the common culprits. Therefore, surgery is aimed at removing the offending tissue, while leaving all of the other spinal structures intact. Laser spine surgery is well-suited to this task.
During laser spine surgery, no large incision is created on the spine. Instead, the doctor makes a small incisions. Through theincision, a camera is inserted and other instruments such as a laser probe, thus allowing the surgeon to see the spine. . The probe is used to dissolve the affected tissue, while preserving all surrounding tissues. The procedure is minimally invasive, and patients are able to return home from the outpatient clinic the same day.
