What Is a Laminectomy?

A laminectomy is a spinal decompression procedure that removes a portion of the vertebral bone (the lamina) to reduce pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. This outpatient surgery is often recommended when conservative options—like physical therapy or injections—no longer provide relief.

Conditions commonly treated with laminectomy include:

  • Spinal stenosis
  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Spondylolisthesis (vertebral slippage)
  • Bone spurs from arthritis
  • Nerve compression causing sciatica or radiculopathy

By creating more space within the spinal canal, a laminectomy can alleviate symptoms like shooting pain, weakness, tingling, or balance issues.
