Ray Faderani Discusses Pros and Cons About Minimally Invasive Spine Surgeries



GREENACRES, Fla. - December 12, 2017 - (Newswire.com)

​As technology advances every year, new procedures are being perfected for patients. This fact is especially valid for millions of Americans who experience neck or back pain and turn to surgery for relief. Many patients in Florida are turning to Dr. Ray Faderani and his practice to become healed.

The advanced procedure Dr. Faderani performs on patients is called Minimally Invasive Spine surgery (MIS). While Dr. Faderani is happy to help a patient pain-free, he does educate the patient on the pros and cons.

"Every patient needs to educate themselves of the advantages and disadvantages of the surgery," says Dr. Faderani. "While there are other options, surgery should sometimes be the last resort."

Like any medical procedure, there are always facts to research before deciding on a final determination.

Pro Facts On Minimally Invasive Spine Surgeries

"There are many advantages of the surgery, and these are the main reason why patients decide quickly on the procedure," says Dr. Faderani.

One of the main reasons why patients choose MIS is because of the small incisions during operation. With previous technology and surgeries, making substantial cuts were necessary, which resulted in scarring of the skin.

While the operation was a success, the scars lasted forever, and the patient sometimes became self-conscious. The pain went away over time, but the mental state of the patient sometimes was never the same.

With MIS, the small cuts leave little to no scarring. This reason alone has been a deciding factor for the operation.

Another decisive factor is the patient will experience less trauma to nerves, tissues, and muscles. This fact also leads to organs undergoing less trauma. Overall, the body is not stressed during operation, therefore cutting down recovery time.

Because of the lack of trauma inside the body, the patient undergoes only half of the usual recovery time. Staying in the hospital for just half the time leads to fewer costs and the patient can get back to work quickly.

Some patients are astounded at the lack of hospital time needed following surgery. While they still need to recover from the operation, this can happen at home. Plus, getting back to work quicker leads to less stress overall.

Previously, patients would have to take high doses of pain medication to cope during recovery time. Unfortunately, several of these cases would lead to medication dependency. MIS does not require the same amount of narcotics as past surgeries because the pain is significantly less.

"The listed advantages are revolutionary and are still progressing," adds Dr. Faderani. "But with the advancements, we have experienced already; the patients love the results."

Cons of Minimally Invasive Surgery

"While the advantages of this kind of surgery outweigh the disadvantages, patients still need to hear both sides," says Dr. Faderani.

Because this surgery is relatively new to the medical field, there are not as many specialists that concentrate on MIS. Education for doctors and surgeons on how to perform the surgery efficiently and correctly are taking place each year.

More and more specialists are becoming proficient in the surgery, which leads to patients being able to find a doctor quicker.

This fact leads to patients traveling further than their local medical facility to seek treatment. Another reason is that some local institutions might not have the more expensive equipment required for MIS.

But patients take in the advantages of the surgery, and going through the trouble of traveling is worth the results.

"Being able to provide this type of surgery to patients in South Florida has changed lives," concludes Dr. Faderani. "The recovery time and pain-free life they lead after is a truly humbling experience for me."
