Innovative Endoscopic Spine Procedures

Spinal surgery traditionally involved large incisions and significant disruption around the surgical site, leading to extended recovery times. However, endoscopic spine surgery represents a modern, minimally-invasive approach that offers substantial benefits. Dr. Sina Rajamand at Saint Mary’s Brain and Spine Surgeryis a leading expert in this advanced technique.

Endoscopic surgery uses an endoscope—a slender tube equipped with a camera—to perform complex procedures through minimal incisions. Dr. Rajamand utilizes this technology to conduct precise operations within the confined space of the spine, often requiring only one or two small incisions. This approach significantly reduces trauma to surrounding tissues and speeds up recovery.

Patients who undergo endoscopic spine surgery typically experience faster recovery times, often returning home the same day and resuming normal activities within a few days. Recovery durations may vary depending on overall health and the specifics of the surgical procedure.

Precision Spine Surgery for Persistent Pain in Reno, NV

For neck or back pain that doesn’t respond to conservative methods or worsens, spine surgery may be required. Dr. Rajamand offers advanced, minimally-invasive endoscopic procedures to address these issues, including:

Endoscopic Discectomy

Endoscopic Foraminotomy

Endoscopic Laminectomy

Foraminotomy aims to widen the foramen, the small gap in the vertebrae allowing nerve passage from the spine. Discectomy involves removing a portion of a damaged disc to alleviate pressure. Laminectomy is a procedure to remove the lamina, the rear part of the vertebrae, to address nerve compression.

Expert Minimally-Invasive Solutions for Spinal Pressure Relief

Spinal decompression surgery addresses issues where vertebrae, discs, bone spurs, or tumors compress the spinal cord or nerve branches, causing pain and loss of mobility. These procedures aim to relieve pressure by expanding the space around the spinal cord and nerves.
