What Is Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery?

Minimally invasive spine surgery uses advanced instruments, image guidance, and specialized techniques to access the spine through small incisions. By avoiding large muscle disruption, MISS offers the same surgical effectiveness as traditional open procedures—with significantly reduced recovery time and lower risk of complications.

Benefits for Westchester Patients:

  • Minimal scarring and less blood loss
  • Lower infection risk
  • Shorter hospital stays—often same-day discharge
  • Faster return to normal activities
  • Reduced dependence on pain medications

MISS is ideal for busy professionals, caregivers, and active adults seeking efficient and lasting relief.

Are You a Candidate for MISS?

You may be eligible for minimally invasive spine surgery if non-surgical treatments like physical therapy or pain management haven’t worked. Our White Plains specialists will evaluate your condition using on-site MRI, X-ray, or CT scans to determine if MISS is right for you.

Conditions Commonly Treated:

  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Spinal stenosis
  • Spondylolisthesis
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Compression fractures
  • Benign spinal tumors or cysts
  • Mild scoliosis

MISS Procedures We Offer in White Plains

Our surgeons are trained in the most advanced MISS techniques, many of which are performed as outpatient procedures:

  • Microdiscectomy – Removal of herniated disc material pressing on nerves

  • Kyphoplasty / Vertebroplasty – Treatment for osteoporotic compression fractures
  • Minimally Invasive Spinal Fusion – Stabilizes unstable segments
