Milestone achievement in MIS Spine Surgery- Balloon Kyphoplasty under LA in Lateral position. This procedure is done for osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fracture ( OVCF) routinely in prone position and under GA. In patients with high comorbidities and unfit for GA, we do under LA with MAC. This 71 year old elderly gentleman with L1 OVCF who was suffering from severe pain, had severe COPD- unfit for GA and could not lie prone for even 5 minutes. We successfully performed Balloon Kyphoplasty for this patient under LA and MAC and in LATERAL POSITION , which is technically challenging. We performed this for FIRST TIME in Max Superspeciality Hospital, Sector 128, Noida. The patient was discharged walking comfortably and painfree the very next day. I would like to thank Dr Gagan Shrivastav and team,Dr Vinod,Lokender,Virender Kumar Niralaji, Pradeepji, Sister Memcha and OT nurse Inderjit and all others who helped in this surgery.

Endoscopic Discectomy using UBE technique is a boon for patients suffering from Slipped Disc and Sciatica. Two small keyhole incisions are sufficient for the whole surgery. The patient can walk on the same day after surgery and get discharged same day or next day -pain free. You can see the happy patient post Endoscopic Discectomy. It was done for this patient who had severe Sciatica of Left Leg due to L5 /S1 Disc extrusion as shown in MRI. Excellent results can be seen.

Slipped Disc and Sciatica pain are common problems sometimes requiring surgery for curing it. Nowadays we perform UBE Endoscopic Discectomy, which is performed by minimally invasive technique. Gone are the days of 3 cm long incisions. In our Max Superspeciality Hospital, Sector 128, Noida, DELHI NCR, we do Endoscopic Discectomy with our newly acquired UBE system of BONNS, using just two puncture holes. It is a day care or 1 day procedure and patient is relieved and discharged walking happily 8-12 hours after surgery. We can give the best services with the latest technology to the community, at par with Europe , US and Korea. It is great teamwork. Big Thanks to my Assistant Surgeon Dr Naman Kandpal. Big thanks to the Anaesthesia team of Dr Gagan Srivastava, Dr Shalini, Dr Pooja, Dr Shameem , Dr Sowmya and Dr Shekhar , Sister Memcha, Vimal and Aarti, OT Technicians including Niralaji and Pradeepji - Dr V A Senthil Kumar, Director of Orthopedics and Spine Surgery, Max Superspeciality Hospital, Sector 128, Noida, Delhi NCR

Our Team performed Dorsolumbar Spine Fixation and Decompression Surgery by Computer Navigation for the FIRST TIME in our Hospital on 25th November 2025, with the recently acquired Medtroniks Stealth Station.This was done for a 54 year old Gentleman with cord compression and paraparesis and severe radicular pain and severe back pain. Patient could walk today with support in 48 hours post surgery.

100% precision in Pedicle screws placement in such a sensitive area, quick and fast surgery, Avoidance of excessive radiation from C-Arm ( 1/20th of the radiation compared to conventional techniques) to Surgeon and Support staff and Patient is the biggest advantage. This high end Technology is now available with us in Spine Surgery.
