An 86-year-old patient, who was previously healthy, was suffering from severe back pain, particularly in his lower back, which radiated down his legs and impacted his daily life. Dr. Nithi Navanimitkul explained that his uncle’s pain was caused by a herniated disc in his lumbar spine, which was compressing nerves, particularly in the 4th and 5th lumbar vertebrae. After consulting with his family, the medical team decided to perform minimally invasive spinal decompression surgery (Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Spinal Decompression Surgery). This surgical technique utilizes small, precise incisions and minimizes injury to surrounding tissues. The surgery took only one and a half hours, and by the next morning, his uncle was standing and walking much better. His pain was significantly reduced, allowing him to return home the same day and have a follow-up appointment the following week. After surgery, his uncle was able to return to his normal activities and enjoy life without any further pain. Treatment Highlights Surgical Technique: Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Spinal Decompression Surgery (MINI) is highly accurate and minimally invasive. Results: Significant pain relief and a rapid recovery. Recovery Period: Patients can walk and return home the next day. Quality of Life: Patients can return to their daily lives happily and pain-free.
