Find a Doctor for Laminectomy

Laminectomy is a surgical procedure to treat weakness, numbness or pain in the leg caused by a piece of bone or ligament putting pressure on the spinal cord.

A laminectomy is performed to alleviate spinal stenosis, narrowing of the spinal canal that causes impingement of the nerves in the spinal cord. A laminectomy removes pieces of bone, alleviating pressure on the nerve, allowing it to heal.

Laminectomy is often referred to as lumbar decompression surgery procedure. Other spinal decompression surgeries include discectomy and microdiscetomy.

Laminectomy is performed by an orthopedic surgeon or neurosurgeon.
