Tubular Muscle-Sparing Surgery

What is a Tubular Muscle-Sparing Surgery?

Tubular muscle-sparing surgery is a minimally invasive technique that allows surgeons to access the spine through a small tubular retractor, gently moving muscles aside rather than cutting them

How It Works

The small tube acts like a tiny tunnel, giving surgeons access to the spine while preserving surrounding muscles and tissues. Think of the tube like a secret doorway that lets the surgeon reach the target safely without disturbing everything around it.

Benefits for Patients

Patients who undergo tubular muscle-sparing surgery experience:

Smaller incisions → less scarring
Reduced pain after surgery
Faster recovery → return to daily life sooner
Lower risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery
