Minimally-Invasive Procedures
Types of Minimally-Invasive Procedures:
Minimally invasive procedures utilize several innovative techniques and approaches. At NYPMG, we specialize in:
Discography
A diagnostic procedure to evaluate spinal discs and identify sources of pain
Vertebroplasty
Used to stabilize fractured or weakened vertebrae in the spine
Spinal cord stimulator
An implantable device that manages chronic pain by modifying pain signals
Endoscopic discectomy
A minimally-invasive alternative to traditional open back surgery for disc herniation
Intrathecal pump implant
A small device is implanted under the skin to deliver medication directly into the spinal fluid
Radiofrequency neurotomy
Uses radiofrequency energy to selectively disrupt the nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals
Nucleoplasty (percutaneous discectomy)
Uses radiofrequency technology to shrink and seal a damaged disc
