Abstract
A method for treating stenosis in a spine of a patient. In an embodiment the method comprises generating at least one view of a portion of the spinal canal in the region of interest. In addition, the method comprises compressing the dural sac in the region of interest by injecting a fluid to form a safety zone and establish a working zone in the region of interest, the safety zone lying between the working zone and the dural sac. Further, the method comprises percutaneously accessing the epidural space in the region of interest on a first side of the median plane. Still further, the method comprises inserting a tissue removal tool into tissue in the working zone on the first side of the median plane. Moreover, the method comprises using the tissue removal tool to percutaneously reduce the stenosis on the first side of the median plane.
