Minimally invasive spine surgery
Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) and robotic surgery consist of advanced techniques that aim to perform interventions on the spine with the least impact on the patient's body. Robotic surgery, in particular, uses technology to guide surgeons with greater precision, allowing for smaller incisions, less damage to surrounding tissues, and a faster recovery.
In the case of MISS, it is a surgical technique that minimizes damage to soft tissues and muscles during spine surgery. Instead of large incisions, small incisions and specialized instruments are used, allowing the surgeon to access the affected area with greater precision and less trauma.

Its main benefits include
Less postoperative pain
The reduced trauma to soft tissues results in a notable reduction in pain and, consequently, a lower dependence on pain relievers.
Faster recovery
Patients usually return to their daily activities sooner than with traditional open surgery.
Shorter hospital stay
Minimally invasive surgery typically requires a shorter period of hospitalization.
Fewer scars
The incisions are much smaller, leading to smaller scars.
