Summary/Abstract: The development of spinal surgery makes it possible to perform minimally invasive interventions in the treatment of LDD (lumbar disc degeneration). The lumbar spine is most often indicated for surgery. At present, several types of operations (decompression, fusion, dynamic stabilization) are performed in the surgical solution of vertebrogenic problems in the lumbar spine. What type of operation and operative technique the operator chooses depends on the graphic documentation of the affected section of the spine and the clinical picture. At present, the minimally invasive surgical technique called minimally invasive spinal surgery (MISS). The procedure allows less tissue damage, less blood loss, earlier verticalization and a shorter hospitalization period. This fact points to the necessity of accelerated forms of rehabilitation in spinal surgery. We followed 250 patients whose average length of hospitalization after mini-invasive procedures at NCHKin Ružomberok in 2022 was 4.84±0.81 days. We appeal to the need for preoperative preparation, which will speed up postoperative rehabilitation.
