Laminectomy Surgery Overview
Laminectomy is a common procedure used to decompress the spinal canal in cases of narrowing due to conditions like degenerative stenosis, fracture, spinal tumors, abscess, and deformity. It also alleviates the pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots caused by these conditions. A decompressive laminectomy may also be necessary to remove a herniated (slipped) disk or bone spurs from the spine.
A neuro or orthopedic surgeon performs lumbar laminectomy operation to treat nerve pain in the lower spine, while cervical and thoracic laminectomy can also be performed to treat neck or middle back pain.
Laminectomy types
Laminectomy operations involve specialized tools and techniques like traditional or open laminectomy, microlaminectomy, minimally invasive laminectomy, endoscopic laminectomy, and lumbar laminectomy with fusion.
Laminectomies are performed at several sites, such as lumbar laminectomy (performed on the lower spine), cervical laminectomy (performed on the neck region), and thoracic laminectomy (which is performed on the thoracic-middle back region).

Laminectomy: Procedure, Recovery And Post-Procedure Care
Preparation: Before a laminectomy, the surgeon reviews the medical history, performs a physical examination, orders imaging tests, and discusses the procedure, risks, benefits, recovery expectations, and potential medication adjustments.
During the procedure: During a laminectomy, the surgeon initially gives the patient general anesthesia, then makes a back incision to access the spine, separates the muscles from the vertebrae, removes a portion of the lamina to create space, and finally stitches the incision.
After the procedure: Following surgery, the patient will be monitored in the recovery room and typically stays in the hospital for a day or more. The patient may be provided with a post-surgery plan, and their healthcare provider may provide additional instructions based on their specific circumstances.
Laminectomy recovery: Recovery time for minimally invasive laminectomy typically takes four to six weeks, while laminectomy with spinal fusion may take up to six months.
Post-operative care: Following a laminectomy, the focus shifts to recovery and rehabilitation, with medication for pain management, physical therapy for strength and flexibility, wound care, short-term rehabilitation assistance at home or a facility, and regular follow-ups.

FAQ's
What are the indications of the laminectomy?
Laminectomy indications include arthritis, bone fractures, bone spurs, degenerative back conditions, herniated disks, spinal stenosis, and spinal tumors or abscesses. A surgeon may also recommend this procedure for patients experiencing neck, shoulder, or back pain, weakness or numbness in arms and legs, or problems with the bowel or bladder.
How is a laminectomy performed?
During the laminectomy, a surgeon makes a back incision, detaches muscles, and removes a section of the lamina to expand nerve space. Traditional open laminectomy uses a larger incision, while microlaminectomy or endoscopic laminectomy use smaller incisions and specialized tools for quicker recovery.
How long after a laminectomy can I walk?
After laminectomy surgery, it may take several weeks to regain normal walking ability, but it’s important to prioritize healing and follow your doctor’s instructions to take short walks as soon as possible.
Is a laminectomy a major surgery?
A laminectomy is a major surgery requiring general anesthesia, back incisions, and muscle detachment to access the spine, whereas minimally invasive options are also available in laminectomy.
