PLDD is a minimally invasive procedure for treatment of heriated lumbar and cervical discs. It involves insertion of a micro-needle under X-Ray guidance into the disc nucleus. A fiber is then inserted through the needle and used to deliver laser energy to the nucleus. The delivered laser energy thermally evaporates excessive fluid reducing internal pressure and relieving back pain.
An innovative approach - using TRIANGEL Laseev 980nm 1470nm - is to treat the bulge itself rather than to vaporize the Nucleus Pulposus.The focused 980nm 1470nm wavelength results in a confined effect and an energy efficient procedure.The PLDD procedure offer a minimally invasive altemative for relieving back pain. The procedure kit enables microsurgery precision, tactile feedback from the fiber, quick recovery for the patient, and use of only local anesthesia. The laser special features include portbility, ease-of-use, no maintenance or running costs, high reliability and stability.
Benefits of the minimally invasive PLDD procedure
- Local anaesthesia allows the treatment of patients at risk.PLDD procedure is performed using local anesthesia. Optical fiber is inserted in special cannula under fluoroscopic guidance.After applying contrast to the facet it is possible to check cannula's position and the condition of the disc bulge. Starting laser initiates decompression and lowers intradiscal pressure. The procedure is done from the posterior-lateral approach with no interference to vertebral canal,therefore,there is no possibility of damaging a reparative treatment,but there is no possibility to reinforce annulus fibrosus. DUring PLDD disc volume is minimally decreased,however,disc pressure can be significantly lowered. In case of using laser to disc decomperssion,small amount of nucleus pulposus evaporates.
