What is Laminectomy?
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.
Types of laminectomy
Laminectomy Surgery 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: Pre-Op & Post-Op Care
Preparation for Spine Surgery
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 Laminectomy
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.
Spine surgery recovery time
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.
