Minimally Invasive (Keyhole/ Endoscopic) Spine Surgery in India

Minimally Invasive (Keyhole/ Endoscopic) Spine Surgery in India

Spine surgery is traditionally done as "open surgery," meaning the area being operated on is opened with a long incision to allow the surgeon to view and access the anatomy. In recent years, however, technological advances have allowed more back and neck conditions to be treated with a minimally invasive surgical technique.Because minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS), does not involve a long incision, it avoids significant damage to the muscles surrounding the spine. In most cases, this results in less pain after surgery and a faster recovery.
Spine surgery is typically recommended only when a period of nonsurgical treatment — such as medications and physical therapy — has not relieved the painful symptoms caused by your back problem. In addition, surgery is only considered if your doctor can pinpoint the exact source of your pain, such as a herniated disk or spinal stenosis.

                      Types of Invasive Spine Surgery 

• Minimally Invasive Tubular Microdiscetomy

• Minimally Invasive Lumbar Laminectomy

• Cervical laminoforaminotomy

• Endoscopic Discectomy

• Minimally Invasive Transforaminal Interbody Lumbar Fusion (TILF)

• Minimally Invasive eXtreme Lateral Interbody Fusion (XLIF)

• Microsurgical Discectomy

• Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (PLIF)

• Kyphoplasty

• Nucleoplasty or Percutaneous Discectomy

                              Benefits Of Invasive Spine Surgery

• Less scar tissue is created thereby not leaving the patient to recover with huge and ugly scar marks.

• Pain associated with this procedure is effectively less severe as small incisions are made. Also less soft tissues are damaged.

• Less blood is lost and therefore the patients don’t have to be at a medication for long periods of time.

• Procedure is more accurate and leaves the patient with better results.

• The cost for such a surgery is quite lesser as compared to an Invasive Spinal surgery.


• Dedicated team of internationally trained and experienced spine surgeons, rheumatologists, neurologist, physicians and physiotherapist.

• Latest generation diagnostic and imaging facilities including dynamic digital X-rays, spiral CT scanning , MRI and electrophysiology unit all under one roof.

• 1500 case of spine surgery and also brain tumors, head surgeries and pediatric problems.

• Specializes in surgery without blood transfusion.

• Special expertise in treating patients with scoliosis (curved spine).

• Special expertise in treating patients with scoliosis (curved spine).

• Treated nearly 600 patients from middle east, Africa, Bangladesh, US, UK and Canada.

• Doctors trained in Switzerland and Germany in minimally invasive endoscopic neurosurgery and skull base reconstructions.
