What are Minimally Invasive Procedures?

Minimally invasive procedures are advanced surgical techniques that minimize risks and promote faster recovery. Unlike traditional open surgeries, these procedures require only small incisions, which significantly reduce wound healing time, pain, and infection risks.

By utilizing state-of-the-art technology, minimally invasive procedures, such as Vertebroplasty or Radiofrequency, offer a less invasive alternative to open surgery. This approach allows for quicker recovery and less postoperative discomfort. These techniques are often guided by imaging technologies, such as ultrasound, fluoroscopy and other techniques to enhance precision and effectiveness.

Minimally invasive procedures are ideal for treating a variety of conditions with reduced recovery times and lower risks compared to traditional methods. Whether addressing musculoskeletal issues or performing internal repairs, these procedures improve patient outcomes and facilitate a quicker return to daily activities.

Vertebroplasty

Vertebroplasty treats spinal fractures by injecting bone cement to stabilize the vertebra. This minimally invasive procedure reduces pain and improves mobility, especially for compression fractures in osteoporosis patients.

Radiofrequency

Radiofrequency ablation is a minimally invasive procedure, guided by ultrasound or fluoroscopy, that uses an electric current to heat and disable nerve tissue, preventing it from sending pain signals.

Interspinous Spacers

Interspinous spacers are small implants that relieve spinal nerve pressure, effectively treating lower back pain and stenosis. This minimally invasive procedure offers faster recovery and is typically done in under an hour.

Peripheral Nerve Block

This minimally invasive procedure, guided by ultrasound or fluoroscopy, injects a local anesthetic to block nerve signals. Adding corticosteroids extends its effect, useful for acute or subacute musculoskeletal conditions.

Intra-articular Corticosteroids Injection

Corticosteroids, injected with ultrasound guidance, reduce pain and inflammation in inflammatory arthritis and musculoskeletal conditions. This precise, minimally invasive procedure avoids systemic effects.

Calcification Barbotage

Calcific tendinitis, caused by calcium deposits in tendons, is treated with ultrasound-guided barbotage. This procedure removes the deposits and is followed by a corticosteroid injection to reduce inflammation.

Nucleoplasty

Nucleoplasty is a fluoroscopy-guided procedure that treats disc herniation by relieving pressure on the disc and nerves. It takes less than an hour and is performed on an outpatient basis.

Platelets Rich Plasma Injection

PRP therapy extracts a platelet-rich portion of a patient’s blood and injects it into damaged tissues to promote healing. Typically, three injections are given 1-2 weeks apart for conditions like osteoarthritis, tennis elbow, and muscle tears.

Hydrodistention

Frozen shoulder, causing pain and limited movement, is treated with medication, physiotherapy, and hydrodistension. This ultrasound-guided procedure injects anesthetic, steroid, and saline to stretch the joint capsule and improve mobility.

Botulin Toxin Injection

Botulinum toxin blocks acetylcholine release, relaxing overactive muscles when injected, ideally under ultrasound. It treats spasticity, contractures, overuse tendinosis, and can benefit knee osteoarthritis and migraines.
