Transforaminal Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy
Back pain can be cured in a day. Low back pain is a major clinical problem, that results in an significant socioeconomic burden. Percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD) is a new technique for the decompression of the lumbar disc space and removal of nucleus pulposus via a posterolateral approach. The technique was first introduced in Germany by the authors Kambin and Gellman in 1983. PELD surgery was initially intended for disc surgery. The method is indicated in patients with non sequestrated lumbar disc herniation with an intact dorsal longitudinal ligament.

Wanted to take this opportunity to thank the nursing staff of the 5 th floor & SICU for taking absolutely fantastic care to my mom, Nalini. A huge shout out and gratitude to Dr Faizal M Iqbal for motivating mom to undergo surgery and and taking the atmost care during and after surgery. I am hopeful and sure that the post operative recovery would also be equally cared for.

In the package they provided, transportation in and out of the hospital was free and they provided excellent detailed service to both the patients who were admitted in the hospital. All of the staff including Rizwan, Ashar, Shakeel, Dr. Faisal, the nurses etc. and even the CEO was very friendly and ready to provide any services that we requested or needed at anytime to make sure our stay at the hospital was pleasant.
