Minimally invasive spine surgery uses advanced imaging, specialized instruments, and smaller incisions to treat spinal conditions while limiting disruption to surrounding muscles and healthy tissue. For appropriate patients, this approach may result in less postoperative discomfort, reduced blood loss, smaller scars, and a faster recovery.

Spine tumor surgery may be used to treat benign or cancerous tumors located within or around the spinal cord, nerves, or vertebrae. The goals of surgery may include removing the tumor, relieving pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, preserving neurological function, reducing pain, and stabilizing the spine.
