Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) offers several significant advantages over traditional open surgery. These include smaller incisions, reduced muscle and tissue disruption, less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster return to daily activities. Dr. Rolando Garcia uses advanced imaging and instrumentation to access the spine with precision, resulting in less trauma to surrounding structures. MISS is particularly beneficial for patients with herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease. Dr. Garcia carefully evaluates each patient to determine if a minimally invasive option is appropriate for their condition.
