Most spinal problems — a slipped disc, a narrowed canal, a fracture from a fall — can now be treated through incisions of a centimetre or two rather than the long open exposures spine surgery used to require, which generally means less muscle disruption and a faster return to walking.
Procedures
Microscopic Lumbar Spine Decompression & Fixation
Relieving pressure on compressed nerves in the lower back, with fixation where the spine is unstable.
Minimally Invasive Cervical Spine Surgery
Treating disc prolapse and nerve compression in the neck through small-incision techniques.
Minimally Invasive Spine Tumour Removal
Removing tumours of the spine and spinal cord with a muscle-sparing approach.
Percutaneous Vertebroplasty & Kyphoplasty
Stabilising fractured vertebrae, often from osteoporosis, through a needle rather than open surgery.
