Imagine a four-lane highway where all the cars are flowing smoothly along the road. There are no disruptions, no barriers which allows all cars to travel the speed limit. Now imagine the loss of one lane because of an accident and then the loss of another lane because construction. The flow of traffic slows considerably. No car can travel the speed limit. Until the construction is complete and the accident cleared, there is a choke point. The cars are tightly packed creeping along. The loss of two lanes of a four-lane highway explains the diagnosis of lumbar stenosis.

Back pain causing radiating pain into one leg or both is one of the most common health complaints, often due to spinal issues such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. Physical therapy and injections are always first line methods. But when nonoperative treatments fail to alleviate the pain, surgical intervention is an option. For patients with compression of the nerves in their lumbar spine, a lumbar laminectomy will alleviate that compression. There are several ways to perform a laminectomy. A traditional midline approach is still commonly done in several centers. A minimally invasive approach offers numerous benefits over traditional open surgery. Dr. Luis M. Tumialán provides expert insight into the advantages of this advanced surgical technique and how it can improve outcomes for patients.
