Minimally invasive procedures using diode lasers The exact localization of the pain-triggering cause by means of imaging procedures is a prerequisite. A probe is then inserted under local anesthesia, heated and the pain eliminated. This gentle procedure puts much less strain on the body than neurosurgical intervention. Denervation for chronic back pain starting from the small vertebral joints (facet joints) or sacroiliac joints (ISG) Percutaneous laser disc decompression (PLDD) for conservatively unmanageable herniated discs with pain radiating into the legs (sciatica) and acute disc damage without radiating pain.
The pain is broken through with minimally invasive procedures. Since no or only local anesthesia is required for such therapy methods, and they are also suitable for multimorbid patients who are no longer suitable for surgery, we speak of gentle and low-risk treatment methods. As a rule, such interventions are painless, in addition, extensive and painful scars are avoided, which shortens the rehabilitation phase enormously. Another great advantage for the patient is that he can leave the hospital on the same day or the next day at the latest. A minimally invasive pain therapy - combined with external therapies - can pave the way back to a pain-free life.
Advantages Of PLDD Laser Treatment
1. It's minimally invasive, hospitalization is unnecessary, patients get off the table with just a small adhesive bandage and return home for 24 hours of bed rest. Then patients begin progressive ambulation, walking up to a mile. Most return to work in four to five days.
2. Highly effective if correctly prescribed.
3. Processed under local, not general anesthesia.
4. Safe and fast surgical technique, No cutting, No scarring, Since only a tiny amount of disc is vaporized, there is no subsequent spinal instability. Different from open lumbar disc surgery, there is no damage to the back muscle, no bone removal or large skin incision.
5. It's applicable to patients who are at higher risk to open discectomy such as those with diabetes, heart disease, decreased liver and kidney functions etc.
