A minimally invasive laminectomy is a surgical procedure that aims to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots by removing a small part of the vertebra called the lamina. Instead of a large incision, surgeons use small cuts and specialized tools to minimize disruption to surrounding muscles and ligaments. This approach helps reduce pain after surgery, speeds up healing, and allows patients to get back to their daily routines faster compared to traditional open spine surgeries.
Laminectomy is often recommended for patients with conditions that cause nerve compression and related symptoms such as leg pain, numbness, or weakness. These conditions include:
Additionally, a laminectomy can be used to address:
By removing pressure on the affected nerves, many patients experience improved mobility, increased strength, and relief from chronic pain.
At New York Pain Care, our surgical team employs cutting-edge imaging, precise instrumentation, and extensive experience to perform laminectomies safely and effectively. We plan each surgery to be as minimally invasive as possible, keeping incisions small and preserving healthy tissues throughout.
This careful approach aims not only to alleviate nerve compression but also to promote quicker recovery, minimize scarring, and help patients return to their daily activities with enhanced comfort and function.
Pinched nerves are the cause of many back problems. Freeing the nerves of bone fragments can bring the relief that you need. Contact New York Pain Care today to find out your treatment options.
