OPERATIVE PROCEDURES

• Percutaneous Cervical Disc Nucleoplasty

Percutaneous procedures are minimally invasive and offer decreased morbidity, require no bone graft and promise shorter recuperation time. Candidates for a percutaneous procedure must complain of symptoms related to contained herniated disc or focal protrusion. It does not substitute conventional open procedures required for extruded discs.
