Minimally Invasive Procedure
The minimally invasive nature of the expandable pedicle screw procedure is a significant advantage for patients. Traditional screws often require larger incisions and more extensive tissue disruption, which can lead to increased postoperative pain and longer recovery times. In contrast, the expandable pedicle screw's design allows for a less invasive approach, resulting in smaller incisions, less tissue damage, and a quicker return to normal activities. This feature is particularly valuable for patients who are concerned about the recovery process and minimizing the impact of surgery on their daily lives.
