FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Will I need fusion with my decompression?
Not always. Fusion is added when there is instability or spondylolisthesis. Many decompressions are done without fusion.
How long is hospital stay after laminectomy?
Usually 1-2 days. Some minimally invasive procedures allow same-day discharge.
