mild® Procedure
For those grappling with the challenges of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS), the MILD (Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression) procedure emerges as a beacon of hope. This cutting-edge procedure is designed to alleviate the painful symptoms associated with LSS without resorting to traditional surgery or the need for implants.
Lumbar spinal stenosis is commonly caused by a buildup of excess ligament tissue, leading to the narrowing of the spinal canal. This can compress nerves, resulting in pain, numbness, and limited mobility. The MILD procedure focuses on removing small portions of this overgrown ligament tissue, restoring space in the spinal canal and offering relief from debilitating symptoms.
Under the guidance of advanced imaging technology, specialized tools are used to remove the excess ligament tissue causing spinal canal narrowing. The procedure requires only a tiny incision, ensuring minimal disruption and maximizing patient comfort. Once the procedure is complete, the spinal canal’s space is restored, effectively alleviating pressure on the nerves.
The MILD procedure is specifically designed for patients with lumbar spinal stenosis resulting from ligament overgrowth. If you experience:
