Q. What’s the difference between a microdiscectomy and a laminotomy?

 

A. Microdiscectomy is the same procedure as a laminotomy, but performed using an operating microscope or endoscope through very small incisions. The surgery can be safely performed under local or spinal anesthesia as an outpatient procedure.
