ABSTRACT:
A surgical table intended specifically for microscopic lumbar laminectomy surgery which may be quickly and conveniently adjusted to fit the needs of the individual patient, and by which the patient is properly positioned for the surgery in a matter of minutes. The table serves to hold the patient in the proper flexed position throughout the surgical procedure. The table includes a top which is supported on a frame base at its forward end by a post in a cantilever configuration, with the top being angularly adjustable about a horizontal axis and also about the vertical axis of the post, and with the post itself being adjustable to set the top to a desired elevation. For the procedure, the patient kneels on a support at the other end of the base with his upper torso extending over the table top to be supported on the top by his iliac crests and chest.
