How does Microspine surgery compare with fusions, conventional laminectomies and the artificial disc?
Results of all spinal surgery are similar in success rates. Fusions and conventional laminectomies offer 50 to 70% success rates while the artificial disc is around 67% success rates (per a recent study, although studies by the manufacturer reports success rates in the 80% range). Our surgeries are around 70% successful. Thus, the success rates are very similar but the recovery time, incision size and postoperative pain are greater with non-Microspine techniques.
