- Lumbar Disc Microsurgery
Lumbar microsurgery is a way of doing low-back surgery through a small incision. There are two types of lumbar microsurgery. Microdecompression is removal of bone from the spine. Microdiskectomy is removal of disk. This removal takes pressure off nerves and reduces symptoms.
