Got Some Questions?
Minimally invasive spine surgery uses smaller incisions (1-2 cm), causes less muscle damage, less blood loss, and faster recovery (often same-day walking). Open surgery may be needed for complex deformities or extensive tumors. Dr. Dash will recommend the best approach based on your condition.
Success rates depend on tumor type, location, and grade. With advanced techniques like awake craniotomy and intraoperative neuromonitoring, Dr. Dash achieves excellent outcomes with maximal safe resection and minimal neurological deficits.
For endoscopic or minimally invasive procedures, most patients go home in 1–2 days. Complex spine surgeries may require 3–5 days. Physical therapy begins the same day or next morning.
