What Is Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery?

Minimally invasive spine surgery in the Bronx uses small incisions and specialized tools to treat spinal conditions with less trauma to surrounding muscles and tissue than traditional open surgery. The result? Less pain, faster healing, and a quicker return to your normal life.

Benefits of MISS:

  • Smaller incisions and reduced scarring
  • Less muscle disruption and blood loss
  • Lower risk of infection
  • Shorter hospital stays (often same-day discharge)
  • Faster return to work, school, and daily activities
  • Reduced need for pain medications

MISS is especially ideal for active Bronx residents who want effective treatment without prolonged downtime.

Are You a Candidate for MISS?

If you’ve tried physical therapy, medications, or injections without lasting relief, you may be a candidate for MISS. Our board-certified spine surgeons will evaluate your condition through a comprehensive exam and imaging (arranged via referral) to determine the right approach for you.

Common Conditions We Treat with MISS:

  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebra)
  • Spinal instability or deformities
  • Compression fractures due to osteoporosis
  • Benign spinal tumors or cysts
