The spinal canal in the lower back contains nerves that can become compressed if the space within the canal narrows. This is called spinal stenosis and can cause pain and impaired function.
During the surgery, space is created around the nerves by removing the tissue that is pressing on them, allowing the nerves to lie freely again. The procedure is intended to reduce pain and improve your ability to function in daily life.
The purpose of the surgery is to create more space for the nerves in the spinal canal and thereby reduce your symptoms. Most patients will experience pain relief within the first few days after surgery, but it may take longer for the nerves to regain their normal function.
Up to 85% of patients experience pain relief or a significant reduction in pain following surgery.
Narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower back can cause pain and impaired function because the nerves are compressed. When symptoms are severe, surgery may be necessary to create more space for the nerves.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, during which the surgeon makes an incision in the lower back to remove the tissue that is compressing the nerves, allowing them to lie freely again.
If you experience increasing pain or a worsening of your symptoms, you should contact a doctor.
Our skilled medical secretaries are ready to help you.
