The risk of lumbar disc herniation surgery is relatively high, which is determined by the specific operation area of lumbar disc herniation surgery. The surgical treatment of lumbar disc herniation, whether it is minimally invasive intervertebral foramen mirror treatment or open surgery treatment, must pass through nerve roots, spinal cord and dural sac. Theoretically, it may lead to nerve root injury, spinal cord and dural sac injury, and even paraplegia below the injury level in severe cases. Therefore, the operation of lumbar disc herniation is very risky. However, the probability of injury in actual surgery is very small, and it is precisely because of the high risk that doctors will be more cautious.

It is risky to treat lumbar disc herniation with intervertebral foramen mirror. In fact, it is still a mature method at present, and the effect is good for patients with this single disc herniation. However, in our country, there are certain admission standards for doctors who perform surgery, and they must be orthopedic surgeons to do it. This orthopedic surgeon has, and they have very good technology or strong theoretical support, because in this process, in case of any accident, they can do open surgery in time. This method is relatively safe and effective, but any operation is risky, including us. People who do anesthesia also know that this operation can be performed under local anesthesia. If it is some complicated or large open surgery, the patient will do it in prone position, which may be general anesthesia and risky. Intervertebral foramen surgery is also risky and may be damaged during the process. Or some unexpected situations, if the patient is old and can have some cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents, then it is definitely effective from a technical point of view, but under what circumstances, there are still many factors in the choice of patients, the choice of doctors and the method of curative effect, so everyone decided to do this intervertebral foramen operation.
