Endoscopic Neurectomy in Houston, TX

An endoscopic neurectomy is a minimally invasive procedure designed to target small sensory nerves in the spine that are responsible for chronic, localized pain. Even if you aren't injured, these nerves can sometimes transmit pain signals to the brain, creating discomfort that doesn't always respond to conservative treatments. Endoscopic neurectomy at The Spine Center is designed to solve this problem by directly targeting the nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals. By severing or deactivating the problematic nerves, Dr. Saqib Siddiqui can stop pain signals at the source without altering the surrounding muscles, ligaments, or motor nerves, offering a pathway to relief without compromising movement or spinal stability. For many, an endoscopic neurectomy can be a turning point in care — an option that brings clarity and reduces suffering when other approaches have fallen short. Learn more about this minimally invasive approach to spine care by scheduling a consultation at The Spine Center in Houston, Dallas, Austin, TX or Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, FL.

Before planning your surgery, Dr. Siddiqui may try isolating the area with a numbing injection to determine where the pain is coming from. If you experience short-term relief after the injection, it strongly suggests that a small sensory nerve is responsible. On the day of surgery, you'll be given local or general anesthesia, depending on the location being treated. Dr. Siddiqui will start by making a very small incision and inserting the endoscope, which is equipped with a camera and light to provide a clear view of the nerve structures. Once he has a visual, he'll use specialized surgical tools to access the nerve and disable it, stopping it from transmitting pain signals to the brain. After treating the nerve, he'll close the incision and bandage it.

By combining precision targeting with a minimally invasive approach, endoscopic neurectomy gives patients an option that can reduce chronic pain without the need for large incisions or prolonged recovery. In the right circumstances, it can restore comfort, improve daily function, and provide meaningful quality-of-life improvements, including:

  • Relieves chronic, localized pain that interferes with daily life
  • Makes standing, walking, and resting more comfortable
  • Helps patients return to activities that were limited by pain
  • Improves quality of sleep by easing nerve irritation
  • Reduces dependence on ongoing pain medications
  • Offers meaningful relief when other treatments haven't lasted
  • Provides a chance to move forward without major surgery

Before I saw Dr. Siddiqui, I was almost at maximum pain medication. I was homebound most of the time the last 2 years. I spent a lot of my time in bed because lying down offered some relief from pain. My quality of life was gone. I had already tried injections, burning of nerves and physical therapy. Nothing helped. I was in dire need of surgery. My doctor reffered me to Dr. Siddiqui. What a Godsend he was! I had a Lumbar Laminectomy done. It was a day of surgery here at surgery center , I woke up from surgery pain free!! After years of deliberating pain, I thought nothing would help me. Boy, I was wrong! Dr. Siddiqui is very caring and professional. I was walking again, I got my life back. I also had to have neck surgery, which he performed about 6 weeks later. I am getting out in the world and enjoying life again! I thought I would never see this day. Thank you Dr. Siddiqui!
