6 Ways Not to Operate
The six “NO surgery” innovations of Spine Disease Treatment
- Vertebroplasty
- Kyphoplasty
- Radio-Frequency Rhizotomy
- Nucleoplasty
- P.E.N.
- Sacral EpiduroscopeLaser Decompression (SELD)
1. Vertebroplasty
The use of cement injection to cure the broken and declined spine. This is the replacement for the operation that cuts a big wound to insert titanium pedicular screw instrumentation inside the body. It will reduce the duration of stay at the hospital from several days to just one day.
Cure: Acute and chronic broken back
2. Kyphoplasty
The technique of using a balloon to push broken, declined or arched spine back to the right position. The treatment without anesthetic or surgery has an immediate effect and will get rid of pain and humped back.
Cure: Elderly with broken, arched or declined back
3. Radio-Frequency Rhizotomy
The technique of using a small needle to induced the RF frequency to cure the symptom around the bone joint of the spine at the waist and neck, without anesthetic or surgery, thus, avoiding hospital admission.
Cure: Severe neck and back pain; streaking neck pain down the arm; Acute and chronic deteriorated spine at the neck and waist
4. Nucleoplasty
The disintegration of the bone disc that slide (herniated invertebrate disc) to press on the neck and back nerve by using the X-Ray real time navigated needle.
Cure: Herniated invertebrate disc from the neck down to the waist
5. P.E.N.
The technique uses the small fiber line of 2-3 mm size in trimming and cutting the fibrosis caused by the bone disc or the narrow nerve canal or due to previous surgery. No need for surgery.
Cure: The spine bone disc slide to press on the nerve, the bone spur and the narrowed spine nerve canal
6. Sacral Epiduroscopic Laser Decompression (SELD)
The use of the microscope (1-2 mm slide size) and the laser to reduce the herniated spine disc. No need for surgery and hospital stay is just for one day.
Cure: Herniated or broken spine bone disc, press on the nerve
