FAQ
What are the types of open spinal decompression?
There are several types of operation:
- interlaminar - resection of the arches of two adjacent vertebrae;
- osteoplastic - after resection of the vertebral arch, the doctor closes the hole with a special implant;
- exploratory - a diagnostic operation to assess the condition of the spinal canal.
What are the indications and contraindications for the procedure?
Indications:
- narrowing of the spinal canal;
- hernia of one or more intervertebral discs;
- bone growths (osteophytes) of the spine;
- spinal tumor;
- disorders caused by pinching of the spinal cord (disorders of urination and digestion, loss of sensation and impaired mobility of the limbs).
Main contraindications:

- coagulogram;
- electrocardiogram (ECG);
- checking liver function;
- chest x-ray;
- CT or MRI of the spine
How is the procedure and recovery going?
During the procedure, the patient is under general anesthesia. The neurosurgeon makes a small longitudinal incision (up to 3 cm), removes the vertebral arches and sutures.
In the first days, to reduce pain, the doctor prescribes a course of analgesics to the patient.
Full recovery period takes up to 6 weeks , during which you can not bend over sharply, lift weights and sit for a long time. If the work is associated with intense physical activity, then their maximum limitation is recommended. In this case, the patient must perform a set of therapeutic exercises. In some cases, physiotherapy is prescribed.
What is the cost of a laminectomy?
The following factors influence the price:
- method of carrying out the procedure;
- selected country and clinic;
- non-medical expenses (transfer, translator, meals and accommodation for the accompanying person).
