Endoscopic Spine Surgery – Before Surgery

Transcript

Before the surgery, your surgeon will take a detailed medical history to address the following concerns. Is the patient having more leg pain or arm pain, or is it more back and neck pain? Patients who undergo endoscopic spine surgery typically do much better when their main problem is either pain in the arm and shoulder or pain in the leg or buttock area. This can be obtained through a careful history and physical examination.
