Fortis Hospital provides specialized Foraminotomy with a focus on relieving pressure on spinal nerve roots, reducing pain, and improving neurological function. Established in 2011, the NABH, NABL accredited hospital is located in Kolkata, India and operates 400 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.
