Often surgery can be avoided with non-operative approaches. If you should need surgery, Mayo Clinic neurosurgeons pioneered techniques in minimally invasive spine surgery.
We offer minimally invasive approaches with smaller incisions to decrease pain, shorten surgery time and length of stay, and return to work quicker. If more involved surgery is needed, our experts have deep expertise in all surgical approaches, and continually innovate to advance care.
