Understanding Keyhole Spine Surgery
Keyhole spine surgery, also known as monoportal endoscopic surgery, is a minimally invasive procedure performed by Dr. Kalyan Bommakanti in Hyderabad. Utilizing an 8mm incision, this technique spares the paraspinal muscles, maintaining the integrity of the vertebral body and preserving natural strength.
Advanced Surgical Techniques
Dr. Kalyan employs a 4K camera with a Joimax HD endoscope, ensuring precision and clarity during surgery. This approach minimizes tissue damage, allowing for faster recovery and reduced postoperative pain.
Post-Surgery Recovery
After surgery, patients are advised to avoid heavy lifting and to bend at the knees during the early recovery phase. The keyhole technique ensures that muscles and bones remain intact, facilitating a quicker return to normal activities.
Resuming Activities Safely
Dr. Kalyan uses Functional Dynamic EMG to assess when a patient is ready to resume lifting and sports. This personalized approach ensures that activity resumption is based on individual recovery, not a fixed timeline.
