Endoscopic Spine Surgery / Slip Disc (Sciatica)
Ultra-modern stitchless or single-stitch 8mm endoscopic removal of herniated disc fragment causing severe sciatica.
Detailed Medical Overview
Percutaneous Full-Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy (PELD) is the pinnacle of modern stitchless spine treatment. Under local anesthesia or mild sedation, an ultra-thin 8mm HD spinal endoscope with integrated working channels is inserted directly into the herniated disc space. Dr. Deepak Bariya visualizes the nerve roots on high-definition 4K monitors and removes the herniated fragment causing nerve strangulation. The entire procedure takes under 45 minutes, leaves virtually zero scar tissue, and requires only a band-aid or single cosmetic stitch.
