Microdiscectomy at Affordable Cost in India
Microdiscectomy, also known as Micro lumbar Discectomy (MLD), is a surgical procedure to treat painful lumbar herniated discs. One of the most common operations performed by spine surgeons is microdiscectomy. The ruptured or bulging fragment of the intervertebral disc that compresses the traversing spinal nerve root is removed during the surgery.
During this procedure, a surgeon will remove parts of the herniated disc to reduce the pressure on the spinal nerve column. Micro discectomies are the same as open discectomies in that they remove the part of your intervertebral disc that is putting pressure on your nerve and causing pain.
Cost of Microdiscectomy in India
The cost of a Microdiscectomy generally varies according to the city and the hospital one chooses. It also depends on the severity of your condition and the complexity of the procedure involved. The price of Microdiscectomy in Hyderabad, Vizag, Navi Mumbai, Aurangabad, Nashik, Nellore, Kakinada, Kurnool and other location may also differ due to various factors.
