cervical Endoscopic Discectomy uses spinal probing of the annulus through the antero-lateral approach under X-ray guidance to obtain patient feedback and so identify the causal level requiring
Learn about this TreatmentDuring Endoscopic Laser Foraminoplasty the anterior epidural space may be explored by means of flexible steerable endoscopes.
Learn about this TreatmentIn those cases where facet joint injection has temporarily relieved the symptoms and they have been incompletely alleviated by cryogenic rhizotomy,
Learn about this Treatmentendoscopic Intradiscal Fusion can be used to stabilise the grossly unstable disc segments which appear to be too damaged to allow disc reconstruction (Bionucleoplasty).
Learn about this TreatmentFor the most advanced degeneration we have developed the technology to address these problems with keyhole surgery minimising disturbance to the spinal canal contents
Learn about this TreatmentThe concept of Endoscopic Laser Decompression & Foraminoplasty is the reduction of lumbar segmental pain by removal of causal pain
Learn about this TreatmentEpiduroscopy requires the placement of a 2mm flexible steerable endoscope through the sacral hiatus in to the epidural space around the dura.
Learn about this TreatmentThe flexible endoscopic intradiscal discectomy can be performed through a one or two sided approach depending on the complexity of the problem
Learn about this TreatmentForaminoplasty is a term originally coined by the Martin Knight to describe the procedure where a transforaminally approach was optimised to define the incubus of pain sources and specifically and discretely treat or remove the causal pain
Learn about this Treatmentinterspinous Spacers are implants that are inserted between the posterior spinous processes. Their purpose is to restore the tension of the ligaments between the spines
Learn about this TreatmentThe term Keyhole Disc Replacement is in itself misleading because the procedure replaces the central portion of the disc (Nucleus Pulposus) rather than the whole disc including the Disc Wall (Annulus).
Learn about this TreatmentBalloon Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure designed to stabilise a Vertebral Compression Fracture and help to correct the Vertebral Compression Fracture deformity.
Learn about this TreatmentIn most specialist centres, Minimal Intervention Fenestrectomy is performed when disc degeneration is combined with significant bone overgrowth either from the disc margins or from the facet joint margins.
Learn about this TreatmentUsing the same techniques as described for Endoscopic Epiduroplasty the water jacket of the cord may be pierced and the endoscope may be inserted into the water filled space.
Learn about this TreatmentNucleoplasty is a means of reducing the production of breakdown products within the disc which may be irritant
Learn about this TreatmentThe percutaneous laser discectomy is achieved by passing a side firing laser probe into specific regions of a lumbar or cervical disc under X-Ray control
Learn about this Treatmentinitially radial tears were considered a mere chance finding on the M.R.I. scan but Viviprudence (Aware State Feedback) indicates that they represent an important often long-lasting and painful pathology.
Learn about this TreatmentVertebral Compression Fractures may be treated by several methods including
Learn about this TreatmentKeyhole Spinal Surgery is the colloquial Endoscopic Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (EMISS) and Fluoroscopically controlled surgery.
Learn about this TreatmentThe term Slipped Disc refers to a disc bulge (protrusion) or a ruptured disc (disc extrusion or sequestrum) Slipped discs
Learn about this TreatmentThis term is used to describe different procedures depending upon the Surgeon or Physician.
Learn about this TreatmentThe posterior surgical approach to the spine has been developed from open laminectomy into microscope assisted discectomy
Learn about this TreatmentWe have been involved in the drive towards mesenchymal stem cell reconstruction of degenerate discs for well over a decade.
Learn about this TreatmentDegenerated intervertebral discs accumulate lactic acid causing pH levels to fall
Learn about this TreatmentIn the Harley Street Spine Clinic we are developing and auditing our use of Gelstix as a means of augmenting the degenerating disc.
Learn about this TreatmentFor the most advanced degeneration we have developed the technology to address these problems with keyhole surgery minimising disturbance to the spinal canal contents whilst using the bloodless cut of the laser to maximum advantage.
