Keyhole spine surgery, also known as endoscopic spine surgery, is a modern surgical technique that offers a minimally invasive solution for spine-related issues. Dr. Kalyan Bommakanti, a leading neurosurgeon in Hyderabad, specializes in this advanced procedure, which is characterized by its precision and reduced recovery time.
