Percutaneous disc surgery has evolved, offering results similar to open surgery with less trauma. This minimally invasive approach provides comparable outcomes and patient benefits.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
  • Spinal Disc Interventions

Background:

  • Traditional open discectomy presents risks and significant patient trauma.
  • Advancements in surgical techniques are crucial for improving spinal procedure outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the modified clinical methods of percutaneous disc surgery.
  • To compare the efficacy and safety of percutaneous disc surgery with open surgical procedures.

Main Methods:

  • A consecutive series of 48 patients undergoing percutaneous disc surgery were analyzed.
  • Clinical outcomes and patient recovery data were systematically collected.

Main Results:

  • Percutaneous disc surgery demonstrated results comparable to traditional open surgery.

  • The procedure was associated with reduced surgical trauma and potentially faster recovery.
  • Conclusions:

    • Modified percutaneous disc surgery offers a viable alternative to open surgery.
    • The technique provides comparable efficacy with the advantage of decreased invasiveness.
