About this recording

The professor briefly explains lumbar stenosis and the transition from assessing symptoms to selecting treatment. The author's description identifies situations for non-surgical treatment, indications for surgery and endoscopic decompression. This is an introduction before a more detailed review of your MRI and treatment options.

What to clarify at your personal consultation

  • Do the imaging changes correspond to symptoms when walking?
  • What extent of decompression is necessary?
  • Is nerve decompression alone planned, or stabilization as well?
