Micro Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy 
The purpose of a minimally invasive Micro Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy is to relieve compression from the affected lumbar discs or to remove a herniated disc. This particular surgery requires little recovery time.
During the procedure, a small incision is made in the area where the disc is affected. Once the area is opened, retractors are placed to keep the area open. An endoscope, which is a micro camera, is used to examine the spine and conduct the surgery. The affected nerve or herniated disc is exposed through small amounts of bone being removed. Once the herniated disc is removed, the incision is closed.
