What is Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery?

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery is a modern surgical approach that treats spinal conditions through small incisions instead of large open surgeries. This technique reduces damage to surrounding muscles and tissues, leading to quicker healing and improved outcomes.

Common procedures include:

  • Discectomy – Removal of herniated or damaged disc material pressing on nerves to relieve pain, numbness, or weakness.

  • Fusion Techniques – Joining two or more vertebrae using specialized implants to stabilize the spine and treat conditions such as instability, fractures, or degenerative disc disease.


Conditions Treated

Our minimally invasive techniques can help manage a wide range of spinal problems, including:

  • Herniated or slipped discs

  • Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)

  • Degenerative disc disease

  • Spinal fractures or instability

  • Chronic back and neck pain not responding to conservative treatment

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS) is an advanced surgical technique where spine surgeons use specialized tubular retractors and high-definition microscopes or endoscopes through small incisions (less than an inch) to treat spinal disorders. Unlike open surgery, it spares major back muscles from being detached, leading to reduced trauma and faster recovery.
Dr. Aakash Jain provides consultations and performs Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery at two primary locations: South Mumbai (Bombay Hospital & Medical Research Centre) and his specialized clinic in Ghatkopar.
Most patients undergoing Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery are able to stand and walk within a few hours of the procedure and are discharged from the hospital within 24 to 48 hours. Light daily activities can typically be resumed within 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the exact procedure performed.
MISS is highly effective for treating herniated discs (slipped discs), spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and certain spinal fractures or instability.
