Burjeel Medical City provides specialized Foraminotomy with a focus on relieving pressure on spinal nerve roots, reducing pain, and improving neurological function. Established in 2017, the ISO accredited hospital is located in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and operates 350 beds with modern neurosurgical and orthopedic spine facilities.

Foraminotomy is a decompression procedure that enlarges the intervertebral foramen, the opening through which a spinal nerve exits the vertebral column. It may be performed when bone spurs, disc changes, or other tissues narrow this passage and compress the nerve root. During surgery, the surgeon removes a small amount of bone or other compressive tissue to create additional space around the nerve. Depending on the location and underlying condition, the procedure may be performed in the cervical, thoracic, or lumbar spine.
