Through the minimally invasive technique, patients will have the opportunity to have some decompression surgeries done with only an 8-millimeter cut.
Minimally invasive surgeries can spare the soft tissue around the spine because surgeons can insert a small camera to see inside without having to cut into muscles or ligaments. Patients who are candidates for endoscopic spine surgery will be able to go home just an hour or two after the operation, saving recovery time and pain, according to the report.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
