Cleaning Hernias with Minimal Damage and the Approach of Preserving the Ligamentum Flavum
Microdiscectomy is a surgical method that allows the cleaning of hernias with minimal damage in the neck, back, or rarely in the thoracic region. It provides a safe surgical environment through the narrow tunnel of a microscope, offering superiority over traditional surgical methods. This technique also stands out by providing a three-dimensional visual advantage to the surgeon compared to endoscopic techniques. While traditional techniques require a large incision to illuminate the surgical area, microdiscectomy can achieve the same procedure with a smaller incision.
The frequency of recurring hernias after surgeries using endoscopic techniques may be higher. Microdiscectomy, in addition to enabling work with a small incision, reduces the risk of recurring hernias by providing better visibility around the nerves and ensuring safer surgery.
Ligamentum Flavum Preservation Technique: The "ligamentum flavum" surrounding the posterior part of the spinal cord is an important tissue that needs to be preserved during microdiscectomy. Preserving the ligamentum flavum can be likened to using it as the door of the room where the surgeon enters. Preserving this ligament with the microdiscectomy technique ensures minimal adhesions around the nerves and define the bone decompression field which needs to be done. Preserving the ligamentum flavum minimizes adhesions that occur around the nerves after surgery and reduces the likelihood of recurring hernias.
Ongoing studies to evaluate long-term outcomes will further demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of microdiscectomy.
