Endoscopic treatment of lumbar disc herniation
Lumbar disc herniation is one of the most common causes of low back pain and may be accompanied by numbness, weakness, tingling, and radiating pain in the legs. Majority of patients with radiculopathy secondary to lumbar disc herniation may be successfully treated with non-operative management including physical therapy, home exercise, counseling, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications. However, surgical management of lumbar disc herniation has also been demonstrated as an efficacious treatment modality.
The procedure is identical to other endoscopic surgeries, such as knee arthroscopy, for example. What differentiates lumbar endoscopic surgery from the rest is that there is only one working channel to carry it out.
With equipment with an advanced learning curve, the duration of surgery is limited. The improvement of the symptoms that the patient experiences after this treatment is instantaneous, being able to be discharged and leave the hospital, on their own feet, in hours.
In our Neurosurgery Unit we have been performing this technique for 6 years with magnificent results.
It is important to note that not all herniated discs can be removed with this technique and sometimes the technique must be reconverted to microscopic removal.
