Spine surgeries can be done in a lot of ways. If you ask me what are the results and which one is better – open or endoscopic/ minimally invasive!! There is no right or wrong answer to this.
In certain indicated cases endoscopic/ minimally invasive surgeries can yield excellent results with shorter hospital stay, early work joining and less post operative pain. Again certain cases are best suited for open surgeries.
But as a whole now-a-days we can tackle a lot of spinal pathologies with endoscopic/ minimally invasive surgery with excellent results because of improved surgical techniques and equipments.
So talk to your doctor and he will hold hands with you for best results with the best possible technique.
