Diagnosis before the Spinal Cord Operation

A Orthopedic Spine Specialist recommends few options to analyze the injury by physical assessment, testing for sensory and motion function, and by posing a few inquiries about the injury. 

If the patient loses consciousness due to the injury then emergency treatment is given according to the injury.

• X-rays – X-rays can show the vertebral (spinal section) issues, cancers, cracks or degenerative changes in the spine. 
• CT scan – A CT scan can give a more clear picture of irregularities seen on X-rays. This scan utilizes PCs to shape a progression of cross-sectional pictures that can characterize bone, circle and different issues. 
• MRI – MRI scan utilizes an intense magnetic field and radio waves to create PC produced pictures. This test is useful for taking a gander at the spinal rope and distinguishing herniated plates, blood clots or different masses that compress the spinal cord.

Procedure of Endoscopic Spine Surgery

Traditional method

In a traditional medical procedure, the specialist makes a cut that is 5 to 6 inches long, then, at that point, shifts the muscles aside to see the spine. With the muscles pulled aside, the specialist can get to the spine to eliminate damaged and harmed bone or intervertebral plates. The specialist can likewise effectively seek to put screws, nuts, and any bone holding materials to settle the spinal bones and advance recovery.

Minimally invasive method

The most generally utilized method includes utilizing a tubular retractor. 

• During the procedure, a little cut is made and the rounded retractor is embedded through the skin and delicate tissues down to the spinal segment. 
• This makes a passage to the little region where the issue exists in the spine. 
• The rounded retractor holds the muscles open (instead of cutting them) and is kept set up all through the methodology. 
• A few medical procedures require more than one retractor or more than one cut.
