Spine surgery done the “classic” way is traditionally done with an open approach, meaning that the surgical area being operated on is opened with a long incision to allow full view and access to the anatomy by the surgeon. In the past recent years, there have been advances in technology that have allowed spinal conditions to be treated with the minimally invasive spinal surgery (MISS) approach.Dr. Brusovanik Helps CBS4's Eliott Rodriguez Without Surgery 2

PATIENT TESTIMONIAL

I’m a 77 year old retired physician. For 1 year I had severe sciatic back pain radiating from my right lower back to my right lower leg. I couldn’t walk more than 50 feet before the pain became severe. Dr. Georgiy Brusovanik performed surgery at Doctors hospital in Coral Gables replacing all the disk in my lumbar spine because the degeneration was severe.Procedure was done in two stages.The surgery was very successful.My recovery each time was shorter than i expected.I am now able to walk my dogs up to 12 city blocks per day.I am very pleased with the care i received and feel that Dr. Brusovanik expertise and kind manor helped me to achieve the success i had.

ABOUT Back Pain

When patients present with back pain it’s very important to obtain a solid diagnosis. Keep in mind that back is made up of bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, discs, nerves, and all that can cause pain. A physical exam is essential, and it’s important to have a detailed history. I’ll frequently order an MRI to see if we can exactly detail the problem.

Spinal Stenosis Spinal stenosis results from new bone and soft tissue growth on the vertebrae, which reduces the space in the spinal canal. When the nerve roots are pinched, a painful burning, tingling and/or numbing sensation is felt from the lower back down to the legs and sometimes all the way to the feet.

Most patients can avoid surgery via conservative/ non operative means such as injections and physical therapy. Few patients that do not have a lasting improvement with those modalities can benefit from a minimally invasive disk replacement or a minimally invasive fusion – just depends on the degree of their degenerative change.

Lumbar Transforaminal Epidural Steroid InjectionThis injection procedure is performed to relieve low back and radiating leg pain. The steroid medication can reduce the swelling and inflammation caused by spinal conditions such as spinal stenosis, radiculopathy, sciatica and herniated discs.
Minimally Invasive Lumbar MicrodecompressionThis minimally invasive procedure is used to remove overgrown vertebral bone and soft tissue to relieve the compression of nerve roots in the lumbar spine. It is performed through a small incision on the back.

RELATED EDUCATIONAL VIDEOS

Lumbar pedicle screw fixation (CD HORIZONS Sextant)This minimally-invasive procedure uses special guides and fluoroscopic imaging to allow a surgeon to precisely implant stabilizing screws and rods in the spine while minimizing damage to muscles, tendons and other soft tissue in the back.
XLIF: Lateral Lumbar Interbody FusionUnlike traditional back surgery, XLIF is performed through the patient’s side. By entering this way, major muscles of the back are avoided. This minimally-invasive procedure is generally used to treat leg or back pain caused by degenerative disc disease. It can be performed on an outpatient basis.
