Far lateral disc herniations are uncommon but very painful. The disc herniates outside the neural foramen as compared to the more common postero-lateral herniations, which occur inside the spinal canal. These herniations require surgery in most cases. There are many ways of doing this surgery but MISS- Minimally Invasive Spine surgery has changed the outcomes for these herniations. The surgery performed at our center is through a 18mm tubular retractor system through a small incision like a keyhole. This allows good visualisation of the anatomy under the light and magnification of a microscope. The idea is to remove the herniated disc fragments pressing on the nerve roots to achieve adequate decompression. #Far-lateral-disc-herniation#Far-lateral-microdiscectomy#Far-lateral-discectomy#Extraforaminal-discectomy#Far-lateral-disc-protrusion#Far-lateral-disk-herniation#Minimally-Invasive-Spine-surgery#far-lateral-disc-herniation-mri#MISS#Spine-surgeon-in-Gurgaon#Spine #Surgery #Gurgaon #India #Endoscopy #MicroscopicUseful links- Dr. Harnarayan Singh https://neurosurgerypro.com/
