Abstract

Results of minimally invasive surgical treatment were studied in 978 patients with degenerative diseases of the spine. Paracentetic interventions were made on different structures of the spinal-motor segment after complex clinico-radial examinations. Catamnestic investigations during 3 years allowed detection of sufficiently stable positive effect of fenestration and decompression of the intervertebral disk (71%), dereception of different structures (64.1%), high-frequency electrodestruction (67.1%) and laser influence on them (78.4%).
