Advantages of minimally invasive spine fixation
- The incision on the skin and related muscle damage are minimized compared to conventional surgery. So patients feel less pain and don’t have to
be hospitalized for a long period of time becausethey recover rapidly.
- Blood transfusion isn’t necessary because only a small amount of blood is lost. The risk of nerve damage is reduced as nerve traction in the middle
of operation is minimal thanks to the foraminotomy approach.
- Other tunnelsare approachedif 2*2 spine fixation is performed. Adhesion caused by previous surgeries are avoided.
- After operating, muscle strength is easy to recover and there is less muscle stiffness
