MaxDisc provides treatment for patients who have failed conservative care and are not yet ready for major surgery. It is a minimal access procedure performed on an outpatient basis. Following manual removal of the offending herniation, the MaxDisc ® device is activated to help clean the disc and seal tears in the annulus. As a result, pressure in the disc is reduced, which eases symptoms.

Although conventional procedures show fine results, continuous technical optimization should be the goal. Open surgeries for cervical spine has a high risk of many other complications such as posterior laminoforaminotomy which violates posterior neck muscles that causes long-lasting neck discomfort post operatively. 

Lumbar spinal decompression is performed with a posterior interlaminar approach. A skin incision of app. 8-9mm is made in the interlaminar window. A conical blunt dilator is introduced in the interlaminar window. A working cannula is introduced over the dilator with the beveled opening of the working cannula directed medially towards the ligamentum flavum. Sequential trimming of the Inferior articular process- Superior Lamina, Superior articular process – Inferior lamina is performed with motorised drills & Kerrison rongeurs.

Neurological safety during transforaminal endoscopic surgery of the spine is of paramount importance. In order not to irritate neurological structures close to the foramen and to ensure safe access to the spinal canal, the caudal part of the foramen is widened incrementally with specially designed, patented manual bone drills.
