59th Annual Meeting of the Scoliosis Research Society

Cervical hernia and myelopathy surgery

When there is a narrowing of the spinal canal in the neck that affects the spinal cord, we speak of cervical myelopathy. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to decompress the spinal cord and prevent permanent damage.

MISS - Minimally invasive surgery

Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) is a surgical technique used to access the spine through smaller incisions than the traditional open approach, offering less damage to the surrounding skin, muscles and soft tissues.
