Spinal stenosis - its causes, diagnosis and treatment options are explained by Dr. Christian Brinkmann, Clinic for Spinal Surgery, St. Josef-Stift Sendenhorst. Pain in the legs, increasingly shorter walking distances and paralysis can be symptoms. The film uses a model to show what happens during an operation on the spine, through diagnosis and conservative treatment options. In addition, a patient describes his experiences at the beginning of each chapter: his journey from the first symptoms with severe pain and limited walking distance, conservative treatment options, which he exhausted, and finally the decision to have an operation that gave him lasting relief from his pain. The film is aimed at those affected who are specifically faced with the decision of a decompression operation and are looking for information about the entire treatment path.
