Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
Lumbar spinal stenosis is defined as the narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower back to less than 100 mm². Patients often feel the need to sit down after walking a certain distance. Symptoms may include numbness, tingling, and weakness in the legs.
How Is Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Surgery Performed?
Depending on factors such as the level of stenosis, insufficient lumbar curvature, and instability between the vertebrae, the procedure may be performed using minimally invasive techniques (microscopic or endoscopic) or as an open surgery with instrumentation (requiring spinal stabilization with screws).
Postoperative Process After Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Surgery
Depending on the type of surgery, the hospital stay ranges from 2 days (for minimally invasive procedures) to about one week (for open, instrumented surgeries). In both types, patients are mobilized and start walking the next day. Patients can return to sports after one month following minimally invasive surgery, and after 3–6 months following open surgery.

Prof. Dr. Sinan KAHRAMAN
I am grateful to Prof. Sinan for everything and sincerely thank him for his kindness and attentive care. On July 15, 2016, my left leg was severely fractured in a traffic accident. There was a high risk of my leg becoming shorter, impaired, or leaving me with a limp. After three surgeries performed by Prof. Sinan, I was able to return to my place in the squad in amateur football matches.
I met Mr. Sinan because of my daughter’s scoliosis surgery. We are very lucky that he came into our lives during such a difficult time. His experience in his profession and his sincere care and attention to his patient left us in admiration. I saw in Dr. Sinan what it means to truly love one’s profession. After a 14-hour surgery, my daughter regained her health thanks to Dr. Sinan and his team. I don’t even know how to thank him. I wish Dr. Sinan success in his profession and happiness in his life.
Dr. Sinan, endless thanks for everything—we are truly grateful. Thanks to the surgery you performed, my mother’s shoulder pain, which had been keeping her awake especially at night for a year, has come to an end. You diagnosed the causes of her shoulder pain as frozen shoulder, degeneration, narrowing, and a tear, and you successfully treated all of them with a single operation. No matter how much we thank you, it is not enough—we are deeply grateful. We are so glad to have you. May God grant you strength and good health and never let you be absent from our lives. Wishing you continued success, Dr. Sinan.
