Minimally invasive lumbar spine surgery refers to a collection of surgical techniques designed to treat spinal conditions with minimal disruption to the surrounding tissues. Unlike traditional open surgery, which requires large incisions and significant muscle dissection, MIS utilizes smaller incisions and specialized instruments. This approach minimizes blood loss, reduces postoperative pain, and shortens hospital stays, allowing patients to return to their daily activities more quickly.
