Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) is an advanced surgical approach that uses smaller incisions, specialized instruments, and image-guided techniques to treat a variety of spinal conditions with less disruption to surrounding tissue. At Oregon Neurosurgery in Springfield, our board-certified neurosurgeons specialize in minimally invasive spine procedures to help patients recover faster, experience less pain, and return to their daily activities sooner. Conditions commonly treated with MISS include herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, spinal instability, and some cases of lumbar spondylolisthesis.
Compared to traditional open spine surgery, minimally invasive techniques involve smaller incisions, reduced muscle dissection, and less blood loss, which often result in shorter hospital stays and faster rehabilitation. Many procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to go home the same day. Using high-resolution imaging and advanced surgical tools, our team is able to precisely target the affected area of the spine while preserving healthy tissue and reducing the risk of complications.
At Oregon Neurosurgery, we are committed to offering the most effective, least invasive surgical solutions when conservative treatments such as physical therapy, medications, and spinal injections no longer provide relief. Our team works closely with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan focused on long-term spine health and function.
