With over 7,500 surgeries to his name, Dr. Kalyan offers cutting-edge solutions for spine conditions, including recurrent disc issues, using the latest 4K camera and Joimax HD endoscope technology.
Understanding Recurrent Disc Issues
Recurrent disc herniation can occur when a new fragment of disc material protrudes through a previously weakened spot. This is not a sign of a failing spine but a treatable condition. Recurrence rates in literature are around 3 to 6%, but Dr. Kalyan’s expertise has resulted in a rate of less than 1% in his patients.
Minimally Invasive Techniques
Dr. Kalyan employs keyhole or monoportal endoscopic techniques, which are muscle-sparing and involve an incision as small as 8mm. This approach minimizes recovery time and reduces postoperative discomfort, allowing patients to return to their daily activities more swiftly.
Collaborative Approach to Pituitary Surgery
For pituitary surgeries, Dr. Kalyan collaborates with ENT specialist Dr. Vyshnavi Bommakanti. Together, they perform endoscopic transnasal procedures, eliminating the need for skull cuts and ensuring a safer, less invasive experience for patients.
State-of-the-Art Technology
Utilizing a 4K camera and Joimax HD endoscope, Dr. Kalyan ensures precise visualization during surgeries. Additionally, Functional Dynamic EMG is used to monitor nerve function, enhancing surgical safety and outcomes.
