PLDD (Percutaneous Laser Disk Decompression) is a widely used method to decrease the intrapressure of the nucleus pulposus in treating a herniated disk. The PLDD can be applied to small animals, such as miniature Dachshund, thanks to a specially-developed PLDD laser fiber (400 microns). Recently, life expectancy of pets has been prolonged and, therefore, many pets suffer from herniated disks. PLDD is a non-invasive, ideal method of surgery not only for the humans, but for their pets.
