Only MicroSpine Does It All

 

MicroSpine is dedicated to the research and treatment of spinal disorders by utilizing Minimally Invasive Laser Endoscopic Spine Surgery (Microspinoscopy). We can resolve most spinal disorders through a hole the size of your small finger (1/4 to 1/2 of an inch)4. Our staff employs Cutting Edge Technology to resolve the most troublesome spinal problems. If most surgeons tell you that they can't help you, then we probably can. 

Since our surgeries are minimally invasive, the amount of recovery time is less, the amount of scarring is less, and the post operative pain is less. In fact, almost all of our patients will be up and walking the same day as the surgery. 

Some call it a miracle, but it simply is the advancement of spinal surgery to the next degree. Just as with shoulder and knee surgeries that once required large incisions and long recovery times, these surgeries are now done on an outpatient basis. So it only employs common sense to utilize these less invasive endoscopic surgical techniques to the spine. 

Many surgeons claim they can perform similar procedures, but they do not. These surgeons will tell you they could perform such a surgery but it wouldn't help you and thus they'll offer you a fusion. In reality, only a small handful of surgeons in the world perform these Microspinoscopy procedures1 and our physicians have personally performed thousands of them3.

 Our location allows our staff to focus on spinal surgery and research and not to be burdened by medical and hospital politics. We are the only facility in the World dedicated to every aspect of minimally invasive spinal surgery. We alone offer endoscopic cervical joint surgery, endoscopic hardware removal surgery, or endoscopic bio-absorbable fusions. No one else can make any claims even close to ours. We design, manufacture and patent our own tools and develop our own techniques, and we constantly monitor the literature to keep up to date on every aspect of evolving spine care. We have a complete staff of researchers and we have been regularly publicizing our data on our revolutionary techniques 2

So before you have any spinal surgery make sure you get all the facts about your options. Our staff will gladly review your MRI information and give you a free preliminary idea of what we believe we can offer you.

Footnotes to above text:

1. To the best of our knowledge, approximately 2 to 4 surgeons perform endoscopic bony spinal work of any real significance. Approximately 5 to 9 perform endoscopic cervical disc surgery and about 80 perform endoscopic lumbar disc surgery (although a smaller number perform these on a regular basis). We are the only facility that performs endoscopic spinal joint surgery, thoracic laser discectomy, endoscopic SI joint surgery, endoscopic hardware removal, or endoscopic bio-absorbable fusions or intradiscal stem cell therapy. If this information is inaccurate, please let us know.

2. Research takes time. Before any paper can be produced a certain amount of patients must have a specific surgery and be followed for a defined period of time. Then the information must to sent to a statistician and be scrutinized. After this the paper can be written and sent to the journals for publication. Publication in a journal can take up to a year because each journal will only allow you to submit the article to them and no one else (they essentially claim ownership of the article). Thus, one must wait for the journal to either accept or decline the article before proceeding to other journals. Also, unlike a university, our doctors work on the research on their own time such as on weekends or evenings. This is why research takes so long and costs so much. Nonetheless, we have been regularly publicizing since 2005.

3. Doctor Mork has personally performed over 7000 Microspinoscopy surgeries as of 2006.

4. Occasionally with the endoscopic hardware removal surgery, the size of the bolts, rods or plates are too large to fit through a 1/2 inch portal and in these cases a larger portal of up to 3/4 of an inch is utilized.

Disclaimer: MicroSpine's surgeries are an alternative to conventional surgery and thus both conventional surgery or our endoscopic surgeries may benefit your condition. No spine surgery is 100% effective in every patient and there is never a guarantee with any surgery. Nonetheless, we offer a minimally invasive alternative to conventional surgery that may resolve your condition..
