What is Minimally Invasive Lateral Posterior Arthrodesis?
Minimally Invasive Lateral Posterior Arthrodesis is a spinal fusion technique that combines lateral (from the side) and posterior (from the back) approaches. This approach allows for a less invasive procedure compared to traditional open surgery, minimizing tissue damage, reducing blood loss, and promoting a faster recovery.

During the procedure, specialized instruments and guidance through imaging technology are used to access the affected area of the spine. The surgeon then removes damaged discs, inserts bone grafts or interbody spacers, and places screws or rods to stabilize the spine and promote fusion. The use of minimally invasive techniques allows for smaller incisions and less disruption to surrounding tissues, resulting in less postoperative pain and a quicker return to daily activities.

How Can Minimally Invasive Lateral Posterior Arthrodesis Help You?
Minimally Invasive Lateral Posterior Arthrodesis can effectively treat a range of spinal conditions, including:

1. Degenerative disc disease: This condition involves the breakdown of discs between the vertebrae, leading to pain, reduced mobility, and nerve compression. Minimally Invasive Lateral Posterior Arthrodesis can help stabilize the affected segment of the spine, alleviate pain, and restore function.
2. Spondylolisthesis: Spondylolisthesis occurs when a vertebra slips out of its normal position, causing spinal instability and nerve compression. Minimally Invasive Lateral Posterior Arthrodesis can address the instability and promote fusion, relieving associated symptoms.
3. Spinal stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal can compress the spinal cord or nerves, resulting in pain, numbness, and weakness. Minimally Invasive Lateral Posterior Arthrodesis can help decompress the affected area and provide stability.
