Ⅰ.What is the downside of minimally invasive spine surgery?
Disadvantages of minimally invasive spine surgery include:
High technical threshold: Minimally invasive surgery relies on fine operation and image guidance, which requires doctors to undergo professional training and rich experience in endoscopic operations, otherwise it may affect the surgical effect.
Limited scope of application: Complex cases (such as severe scoliosis, multi-level spinal instability, giant ossified disc herniation) still require traditional open surgery, and minimally invasive surgery is difficult to complete complex fixation and fusion operations.
Some cases have higher costs: Due to the use of endoscopes, special instruments and navigation equipment, the cost of some minimally invasive surgeries is slightly higher than that of traditional open surgery, depending on the surgical procedure and hospital conditions.
There is a risk of recurrence: if the maintenance is not paid attention to after surgery, there is still the possibility of disc herniation again (similar to the recurrence rate of traditional open surgery, the key is postoperative rehabilitation and lifestyle habits).
Potential complications: Due to the small exposure, complications such as nerve damage and incomplete decompression and decompression may occur, but they can be avoided with skilled skills and good equipment.
Ⅱ.Is it okay to sleep on your side after a laminectomy?
Whether you can lie on your side after a laminectomy depends on the surgical site:
Lumbar spine surgery: You can lie on your side, and lying on your side will not cause excessive traction of the lumbar spine, so it will not affect the recovery of the incision. And usually when resting in bed, you can lie flat, you can lie on your side to rest, and the incision edge is covered below for a long time without breathability, sometimes the incision heals poorly, and it is easy to cause pressure on the bone protrusion to form bedsores, so you can lie flat or lie on your side when sleeping, which does not have much impact on the recovery after lumbar spine surgery.
Thoracic spine surgery: Generally, you cannot sleep on your side to avoid affecting wound healing. After thoracic spine surgery, it usually causes certain damage to the local soft tissues, and it is generally necessary to keep the wound clean and dry, and avoid water to avoid wound infection. If the patient sleeps on his side, it may cause some pressure on the wound, which in turn affects the healing of the wound. Therefore, it is generally not recommended for patients to sleep on their side. At the same time, patients should also avoid excessive curling and prone postures to avoid affecting local recovery.
Cervical spine surgery: You can sleep sideways, but you need to pay attention to wearing a neck circumference or neck brace when sleeping, so as not to cause cervical spine rotation and affect postoperative recovery, and do not change postures frequently while sleeping. After cervical spine surgery, absolute bed rest should be absolutely carried out within 48 hours, and both sides of the head should be fixed with sandbags to avoid rotation of the cervical spine.
