Endoscopic Spine Surgery vs Microdiscectomy : what is the difference - Dr. Ajay Kothari

Dr. Ajay Kothari

A slipped disc, also known as a spinal disc herniation, is a condition in which the soft inner material of a spinal disc bulges out through a tear in the outer layer, putting pressure on surrounding nerves and causing pain, numbness, and weakness in the arms or legs. Endoscopic Spine Surgery and Microdiscectomy are two surgical procedures used to treat this condition. Microdiscectomy is a traditional open surgical procedure in which a small incision is made in the back to access the affected spinal disc, while Endoscopic Spine Surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that uses an endoscope (a small camera) to visualize the inside of the spine and make small incisions to access and remove the damaged portion of the disc. Endoscopic Spine Surgery is typically less invasive and results in less scarring, a faster recovery time, and less pain compared to Microdiscectomy. The choice of procedure will depend on the specific needs and health of the patient and the surgeon's expertise.
