Spinal decompression surgery refers to a group of procedures performed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots. Pressure on these nerves (often caused by bone spurs or herniated discs) can lead to severe pain, numbness, weakness, and difficulty walking.
The goal is to create space ("decompress") the nerves, allowing them to heal and function normally again.
Pinpointing the exact location of nerve compression (stenosis or disc herniation).
Selecting the least invasive approach (Endoscopic vs Microscopic) for your case.
Removing bone or disc material pressing on the nerve roots to restore blood flow.
Leg pain often disappears immediately after waking up from anesthesia.
Most patients walk within 6-12 hours after surgery.
Return to desk work in 1-2 weeks; full activity in 4-6 weeks.
Using a tiny camera and specialized instruments, Dr. Sayuj can perform decompression through a sub-centimeter incision. This means less muscle damage, less pain, and a faster return to daily life.
Using a high-powered operating microscope allows for extreme precision, ensuring that the nerve is freed without touching or damaging it.

Spinal decompression is a general term for surgical procedures performed to alleviate pain caused by pinched nerves. Common types include laminectomy (removing bone), discectomy (removing disc), and foraminotomy (widening nerve exit).
The cost typically ranges from ₹1.2 Lakhs to ₹2.5 Lakhs depending on the technique (Endoscopic vs Open), the hospital room category, and whether implants are needed.
It depends on the technique. Dr. Sayuj specializes in "Minimally Invasive Decompression," which uses keyhole incisions (<1cm). This is considered safe, with minimal blood loss and rapid recovery compared to traditional open back surgery.
Yes! We encourage walking on the same day or the next morning. Early mobility prevents complications and speeds up healing.
It effectively treats Spinal Stenosis (narrowing of canal), Herniated Discs (slip disc), Sciatica, and Spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebrae).
