Endoscopic Spine Surgery – Less Pain and Faster Recovery
Mr. V. (36 years old) was admitted to the hospital with severe L5–S1 lumbar disc herniation, causing low back pain, numbness in both legs, difficulty walking, and a significant decline in quality of life. After a 2-hour endoscopic discectomy at Nam Sai Gon International General Hospital, he was discharged and able to resume light activities just two days after treatment.
Fear of spine surgery remains a major barrier that causes many patients to delay treatment and endure pain for years. Today, however, with endoscopic spine surgery—characterized by minimal pain and rapid recovery—patients can undergo treatment with confidence and quickly regain a better quality of life.
This minimally invasive surgical technique offers multiple advantages:
-
Minimal blood loss and reduced damage to healthy tissues, helping to lower the risk of postoperative complications.
-
Less postoperative pain, faster recovery, and hospital discharge within 2–3 days.
-
A small incision of less than 2 cm, ensuring high cosmetic outcomes.
Endoscopic spine surgery at Nam Sai Gon International General Hospital is performed by an experienced team of Neurosurgery and Spine specialists, supported by a modern medical equipment system. This combination enhances treatment effectiveness and significantly shortens patients’ recovery time.
