Laproscopic surgery for spinal stenosis
 
A friend mentioned an acquaintance that went to Arizona for laproscopic spinal stenosis surgery. With spinal stenosis being the primary issue, and minimal disc issues, she felt that the results appeared very positive. Does anyone have information about that?

Minimally-invasive endoscopic laser foraminoplasty?

If she's in AZ... she might have gone to Tony or Chris Yeung... DISC - Desert Instititute for Spine Care, The Leaders in Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Laser Spine Surgery.

I've known them for many years and have watched dozens surgeries with them. I've had many clients who have gone there. Some have had great success... some have not. (That's as good as you get with any spine surgery.) However, what they do is very, very minimally invasive and doesn't burn future options (as I have seen with other MISS centers.)

I wish I could go back in time and redo my first two surgeries... both open discectomies. If I could, it would be with Tony Yeung. I might have graduated to ADR anyway... I'll never know. But from what I've seen through the years... for MISS discectomy and thermal annuloplasty, the SED with TA procedure that Tony developed is excellent.
