Minimally Invasive Spine Decompression Surgery at DRHC Dubai

Find Lasting Relief from Spinal Stenosis with Minimally Invasive Surgery at DRHC Dubai

Chronic back pain, numbness, and weakness can significantly limit your ability to live an active life. Spinal stenosis, a narrowing of the spinal canal that compresses nerves, is a common culprit. At DRHC Dubai, we specialize in helping you regain control with advanced, minimally invasive decompression surgery solutions.

Surgical Options at DRHC Dubai:

While traditional open surgeries exist for spinal stenosis, DRHC Dubai offers minimally invasive approaches that can lead to faster healing and recovery. Here's an overview of our surgical options:

• Laminectomy: A minimally invasive procedure using a small incision and an endoscope (lighted camera) to remove a small portion of the lamina (bony roof of the spinal canal). This creates space for the nerves and relieves pressure.
• Laminotomy: A less invasive version of a laminectomy, removing only a small section of the lamina to create a window for access to the compressed area.
• Foraminotomy: This targeted procedure focuses on the neural foramina, the openings where nerve roots exit the spinal canal. It removes bone spurs or ligamentous tissue compressing the nerve roots.
• Laminoplasty: This is another approach for creating more space in the spinal canal. Instead of removing bone, it involves cutting the lamina and strategically opening it like a hinge (open door) or splitting it down the middle (French door). This creates space while preserving the structural integrity of the spine. Laminoplasty is typically used in the cervical spine (neck) due to anatomical limitations.
