Patients undergo surgery using discoscopy, which is a minimally invasive procedure, mainly when the patient has a lesion in the lumbar spine area. The specific charges should be decided according to the specific procedure and the specific disease. For example, if a patient has a simple lumbar disc herniation and undergoes a simple nucleus pulposus removal through discoscopy, the cost is around$15,000-17,000. If the patient undergoes a simple nucleus pulposus and then an artificial lumbar disc is implanted, the cost is around$80,000-100,000. If the patient suffers from lumbar disc herniation and also suffers from lumbar instability, the cost is about 23,000-25,000 yuan after the nucleus pulposus removal and the internal fixation of the nail rod system at the same time. The specific cost is still subject to the local hospital charges.
