This technique guide video describes Foraminoplasty in the face of Spondylolisthesis – not all Spondylolisthesis needs fusion.
A 70 year old spine surgeon was treated by Dr. Anthony Yeung 8 years previous for isthmic spondylolisthesis with a successful R Transforaminal Endoscopic Decompression.
This video is of that same spine surgeon’s return visit to have the contralateral side decompressed for contralateral sciatica.
Note: The patient was awake for the procedure and able to converse with Dr. Yeung as Dr. Yeung performed and described the technique used.
