Abstract

The authors present the principles of rehabilitation in early period following minimally invasive surgical treatment of degenerative disease of lumbar spine. These principles are encountered in the protocol of postoperative rehabilitation which is routinely used in the Department of Neurosurgery in Tarnéw. The paper also gives information on the state-of-the-art methods in minimally invasive spinal surgery for degenerative disc disease. These methods have evolved from up-to-date technologies which have appeared in practical medicine only last years. Dynamic development and wide implementation of these methods in the armamentarium of contemporary spinal surgery requires physiotherapists be prepared for increasing number of patients undergoing treatment with use of these methods. The first author shares his experience in these methods including criticism.
