Foraminotomy

Foraminotomy

Foraminotomy is a surgical procedure primarily aimed at relieving pressure on spinal nerves caused by the narrowing of the foraminal space, a small opening between vertebrae through which nerves pass. This minimally invasive technique involves the removal of a portion of bone or tissue, specifically targeting the affected foraminal area. Surgeons perform this procedure to alleviate symptoms associated with compressed nerves, such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the neck, arms, or legs. During foraminotomy, the surgeon uses advanced imaging technology to precisely locate the affected nerve roots and then removes the obstructing tissue or bone fragments, allowing more space for the nerves to exit the spinal column without being impinged or compressed. This approach aims to restore normal nerve function and reduce discomfort or limitations in movement caused by nerve compression. The procedure is typically conducted under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, and it often offers a quicker recovery time compared to traditional open surgeries. Post-operative care may involve physical therapy, medications to manage pain and inflammation, and a gradual return to normal activities under medical guidance. Foraminotomy is considered an effective option for addressing nerve compression related to conditions like foraminal stenosis or herniated discs, offering relief and improved mobility to affected individuals.
