Pioneering Spinal Health with Prof. Dr. Yunus Aydın’s Microdiscectomy and Spinal Canal Stenosis Surgery

Having performed thousands of complex interventions such as over 2800 aneurysm surgeries and more than 400 AVM surgeries, Prof. Dr. Yunus Aydın stands out for his individualized approach to each patient, prioritizing patient satisfaction and health throughout the treatment process.

The Yunus Aydın Technique, pioneered by Prof. Dr. Yunus Aydın, represents a breakthrough in spinal surgery, offering targeted treatments for spinal stenosis and spinal cord compression without metal use, resulting in minimal damage. It includes outpatient herniated disc treatments, non-invasive approaches for cervical disc herniation, and effective solutions for spinal cord stenosis due to neck calcification.

Prof.Dr.Yunus Aydın applied a unilateral approach, bilateral decompression for spinal stenosis. He used this technique in more than 4,000 cases over the last 23 years. “Our goal is to preserve the natural structure and mobility of the spine while providing more room to squeezed spinal nerves,” he says. Spinal stenosis occurs in older people; almost every surgeon prefers instrumented techniques which are prolonged and bloody operations, and the patients cannot return to normal life in a short time. He says, “The operation in older patients should be short, bloodless, and can walk right after surgery to avoid complications.”

“By using a unilateral approach, on the symptomatic side, we can decompress the spinal canal stenosis and clean disc herniations effectively, minimizing the risk of ‘Adjacent Segment Disease’ and ensuring a faster return to normal life for our patients.” This technique can be applied to multi-level stenosis through the same incision and doesn’t violate the weight-bearing capacity of the spine.
