Percutaneous discectomy utilizes a small tube to access and remove herniated disc material without an incision. Our surgeons navigate the device inside your back under X-ray guidance to locate the damaged disc tissue and carefully remove it.
Our surgeons at NEW YORK INTERVENTIONAL PAIN PHYSICIANS offer minimally invasive discectomy to effectively treat herniated discs with less recovery time.
Benefits of Percutaneous discectomy:
- Reduced post-operative pain
- No scarring
- Shorter recovery time compared to those traditional back surgery days
- Quick return to daily activities
Performed under light sedation, percutaneous discectomy typically takes around 20 minutes. The discectomy device is inserted and conducted to the herniated disc under X-ray guidance and without an incision. The damaged disc tissue is removed using surgical instruments through the device.
After percutaneous discectomy, most patients experience less pain and discomfort. You can easily carry on your regular activities within a month. Be ready to experience a significant improvement in your life.
