Clínica Bofill Introduces Endoscopic Spine Surgery in Girona

Clínica Bofill in Girona has recently introduced endoscopic spine surgery, an innovative minimally invasive technique for treating different spinal conditions.

This initiative is led by Dr. Augusto Covaro, a spine surgery specialist with more than two decades of experience in the field. The news was published by the regional newspaper Diari de Girona, highlighting the impact this technique may have on patient care in the Girona area.

Endoscopic spine surgery allows doctors to treat conditions such as herniated discs, lumbar spinal stenosis, and revision spine surgeries, using very small incisions and advanced endoscopic technology.

Thanks to this approach, surgeons can access the affected area with greater precision while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.

One of the main advantages of this technique is that many patients can be discharged on the same day as the procedure, allowing for a significantly faster recovery compared to traditional open spine surgery.

Because the procedure is minimally invasive, it can also significantly reduce:

• postoperative pain
• risk of complications
• size of surgical scars

The introduction of this technique also represents an important improvement in access to specialized spine treatments in the region. In the past, many patients had to travel to Barcelona to undergo this type of surgery.

With this initiative, Clínica Bofill expands its advanced surgical services and strengthens its commitment to innovation in spine care.
