Posterior Cervical Laminectomy

Posterior Cervical Laminectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of part or all of the lamina (the back part of a vertebra), providing more space for the spinal cord and nerve roots. This procedure can effectively reduce pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, which often results in significant pain relief and improved nerve function.

This surgical approach is typically used to treat conditions such as cervical spinal stenosis, herniated discs, or degenerative disc disease where non-surgical treatments have failed to provide adequate relief. By creating more space in the spinal canal, the procedure can alleviate symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness extending from the neck down to the arms or legs.
