How It’s Done
When undergoing Lumbar Laminectomy and Discectomy, the surgeon makes a small incision in the lower back to access the affected area of the spine. The lamina (part of the vertebrae) is removed to relieve pressure on the nerves.
The surgeon then carefully removes the herniated or damaged disc, which is causing compression on the spinal nerves. The goal of this procedure is to alleviate pain and restore proper function to the spine.
