Hemilaminectomy Discectomy Surgery
Hemilaminectomy is a surgical technique for relieving extremely painful spine problems. When your vertebrae pinches or restricts your spinal cord or nerve roots, a hemilaminectomy may be the answer. But since not all spine surgeons perform this procedure, turn to neurosurgeon Dr. Branko Skovrlj at NU-Spine, The Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery Institute in Edison, NJ when you require a hemilaminectomy.
Your spine acts as the foundation of your central nervous system, as well as the main structure of your skeletal system. When pain flares up on any part of your spine, it can quickly become chronic and debilitating. A hemilaminectomy literally means half a laminectomy, and it involves removing half as much bone from your spine.
Since an early diagnosis means earlier treatment and better results, visit a spine specialist at the first sign of a back problem. Dr. Skovrlj offers all the latest surgical technology, including minimally invasive spine surgery for:
- A faster recovery period
- Smaller incisions, which means less bleeding
- A lower risk of infection
- Less disruption of your muscles, nerves and other soft tissue
