Spinal endoscopy: a revolution in the treatment of spinal pathologies
Advances in modern medicine have transformed spinal procedures, now offering less invasive and more effective solutions. At the CIC Montreux clinic, Dr. Antonio Tarabay, FMH specialist in neurosurgery, offers spinal endoscopy, a major innovation that combines medical expertise and cutting-edge technology.
What is spinal endoscopy?
Spinal endoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique that can treat many spinal pathologies. Unlike conventional methods, this procedure is performed using an endoscope inserted through a small 8- to 10-mm incision. Equipped with a high-definition camera and advanced lighting, the endoscope allows the surgeon to precisely visualize internal structures and treat pathologies while preserving surrounding tissue.


Après la décompression d'une sténose canalaire lombaire sévère, on observe les pulsations de la mère, ce qui indique que les nerfs sont désormais dégagés et peuvent retrouver leurs fonctions.

Décompression de 2 sténoses foraminale cervical a travers une seule incision, on visualise les 2 nerfs libéré a la fin de la décompression.


Pathologies treated by spinal endoscopy:
● Lumbar or cervical disc herniation : Causing radiating pain and muscle weakness, these hernias are effectively treated.
● Spinal stenosis : Compression of nerve structures that can lead to chronic pain and neurological disorders.
Why choose spinal endoscopy?
This method offers several advantages for patients:
Minimally invasive procedure:
A smaller incision minimizes postoperative pain, bleeding, healing problems, and the risk of infection.
Rapid Recovery: Thanks to the minimally invasive nature of the technique, patients can resume their daily activities in just one week and return to sports quickly.
Short-term Hospitalization: Many eligible patients can benefit from this technique without an extended hospital stay.
Procedure
The procedure begins with a small incision through which the endoscope is inserted. Once the affected area is located, the surgeon makes any necessary corrections, whether it involves removing a herniated disc or releasing compressed nerve structures. Performed under general anesthesia, the procedure is quick and precise, ensuring optimal patient comfort.
Spinal endoscopy is not only a technological advancement, it is an opportunity for many patients to regain a pain-free quality of life. If you suffer from chronic pain or spinal pathologies, do not hesitate to contact us.

Cher Dr Tarabay, nous vous remercions sincèrement pour l’opération du dos que vous avez réalisée à Sion sur notre fils, âgé de seulement 22 ans. Grâce à votre expertise et à la technique endoscopique, l’intervention a été remarquablement peu invasive, et la récupération est certainement plus rapide, sans parler de la douleur, bien moindre. Merci pour votre professionnalisme, votre écoute et la qualité des soins reçus. Avec toute notre gratitude.
Je souffrais d’une hernie discale L5-S1 qui me rendait la vie très difficile au quotidien. La douleur était constante et handicapante. Après avoir été pris en charge par le Dr Tarabay, ma vie a complètement changé. Grâce à son professionnalisme, son écoute et son expertise, je ne souffre plus aujourd’hui. Je revis, tout simplement.Un immense merci pour cette prise en charge exceptionnelle. Je recommande les yeux fermés.
