Minimally invasive surgery for lumbar disc herniation

Surgical treatment of diseases is very common. For some stubborn diseases, surgical treatment methods are needed, which will be of great help to improve the disease. However, the surgical method is not the same for all diseases. According to the different types of diseases, the methods used are also different. Therefore, it is necessary to understand before the operation. How about minimally invasive surgery for lumbar disc herniation?

Many people don’t know much about what minimally invasive surgery for lumbar disc herniation is like. Therefore, patients need to have a good understanding of this surgical method before choosing it, so that they can proceed with it with confidence.

Minimally invasive surgery for lumbar disc herniation:

Minimally invasive treatment is a treatment method between conservative treatment and surgical treatment that is the result of the development of science and technology and the prominence of treatment. It can quickly treat lumbar disc herniation and completely eradicate it without the risks of open surgery, but has better results than open surgery. This method of treating lumbar disc herniation has other incomparable advantages:

Three major advantages of minimally invasive treatment: 1. Directly eliminate diseased tissue and achieve immediate results. Under CT monitoring, a 0.5 mm fine needle is accurately placed at the site of the disease, and thermocoagulation and temperature control treatment is performed to fundamentally relieve the pressure of the protrusion, so that the patient's symptoms disappear or are alleviated quickly;

2. High safety, no harm to normal body tissues. Computer imaging monitoring can avoid important structures such as nerves and blood vessels. Precisely control the scope of the injury focus, and only heat-coagulate the protruding part without damaging the normal nucleus pulposus and surrounding nerves;

3. Less damage, no pain or complications, and low overall cost. 1) There is only a 0.5 mm wound, which can heal quickly; 2) The entire treatment process does not require anesthesia, analgesics, antibiotics, or hormones, and has no side effects on the human body; 3) Compared with traditional surgery, the cost is reduced by half.

Chengdu Bayi Orthopedic Hospital, in line with the purpose of being responsible for every patient, has introduced a variety of minimally invasive treatment technologies to form a "minimally invasive one-needle" system, which includes: radiofrequency thermocoagulation target surgery, minimally invasive percutaneous disc resection, German trioxygen target ablation, perforaminal endoscopic discectomy and many other treatment technologies. The minimum incision for treating lumbar disc herniation with this system is 0.5mm, and the maximum incision is only 1.5cm. Small trauma, fast recovery and no complications are the characteristics and advantages of minimally invasive treatment. The hospital's doctors will also tailor the most suitable and optimal treatment methods based on each patient's actual condition, striving to minimize treatment harm and reduce treatment costs for patients to the greatest extent possible.

Through the above introduction, we have some understanding of minimally invasive surgery for lumbar disc herniation. When using this surgical method, it also depends on the patient's disease condition. This will be of great help to all aspects of the patient's body. Therefore, when choosing, it is best to use it according to the doctor's advice.
