Overview: Similar to conventional surgery, this MISS technique has two aspects – a. Fusion and B. Stabilization except that these are done through ‘key hole’ incisions. Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Fixation is done for stabilization and Interbody Fusion is achieved thorough a spacer filled with bone graft. These steps may be performed in conjunction with Micro- Endoscopic Decompression.
Disclaimer: The description of procedure is how usually a surgery is done. During the procedure, based on intra operative encounters which varies from patient to patient different steps may be performed.
