“It was unbelievable: my pain was gone immediately after the procedure.
And that has stayed the same,” says Matthias Schömann-Finck, the world rowing champion from Saarbrücken.
A severe herniated disc threatened to put an abrupt end to the career of the top athlete.
With a new surgical technique, the tormenting condition can be cured in just two days. And it doesn't even require general anesthesia...
Nicole Ehrenschneider: "Just a few hours after the operation, when the anesthetic shot wore off,
my pain was gone. What I didn't expect either: I only had to stay in the clinic for two days and then I was able to drive home myself in the car."
dr Michael Schubert - internationally sought-after specialist for endoscopic disc surgery. At the request of this year's President of the SASS (South African Spine Society) Prof. Dr. R. Dunn, Dr. Schubert two lectures on endoscopic spine and intervertebral disc surgery.
dr This time, Schubert lectures on the one hand on "Indications, contra-indications, intraoperative preparation (technique) and scientific results" and on the other hand on "Possibilities of endoscopic intervertebral disc surgery" in front of 200 South African spine specialists.
The SASS is thus another stop on the long list of countries and clinics that Dr. Michael Schubert visited.
Pain and numbness - Nicole Ehrenschneider was not allowed to work with these as a pilot.
A state-of-the-art, minimally invasive procedure saved her job - and her mobility.

From April 21st to April 23rd, 2012 Dr. Schubert invited to the International Spine Congress in Barcelona.
This congress was organized and hosted by ISASS (International Society for the Advancement of Spine Surgery). dr Schubert gave a lecture on the subject of endoscopic transforaminal herniated disc removal for the area of the lumbar spine (lumbar spine) and cervical spine (cervical spine).
March 2012: Dr. Schubert was invited to the 5th International Congress for Endoscopic Spine Surgery.
From 29.03.-01.04. Vienna-based world congress dealt exclusively with minimally invasive spinal surgery with published scientific studies. dr Schubert spoke about “9 years of experience with endoscopic spinal surgery”.
Intervertebral disc surgery with significantly better results than conservative forms of treatment for a herniated disc . The largest multi-centre comparative study to date with 2000 patients in the USA has clearly demonstrated that surgery for herniated discs achieves better results after 2 years than conservative treatment SPINE JOURNAL 2008
As an expert in minimally invasive endoscopic surgeries, Dr. Michael Schubert in demand worldwide. The top Munich doctor has just returned from New York, where he was one of the almost twenty internationally renowned lecturers who trained other surgeons at the “Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery and Navigation” congress at the Weill Comell Medical College.
The program also included a well-founded discussion about the advances in minimally invasive surgery (intervertebral disc surgery) and new imaging methods, which were presented by Dr. Schubert are used in his surgeries.
The well-known free skier Thomas S. took a trip to Munich last week. The reason for this was not a short vacation or a show, but an operation on an intervertebral disc with one of the world's leading spinal surgeons in endoscopic surgical technology - Dr. Michael Schubert from the Munich Apex Spine Center.
This prize was donated to specifically honor highly deserving surgeons in the field of endoscopic spinal surgery. The prize was presented to two spine surgeons with many years of experience, including Dr. Michael Schubert. Criteria for awarding the prize include many years of endoscopic surgical practice.
A recent study has established a direct correlation between the number of spinal surgeries a surgeon has performed and the occurrence of complications. Very clear conclusion: The more interventions the surgeon performs on average, the lower the complication rate and the lower the costs for the healthcare system.
A year ago, rower Matthias Schömann-Finck beamed with his three sports colleagues: world championship gold medal in coxless four. The culmination of a sports career that was suddenly interrupted: the athlete from RV Saarbrücken had to do without the highlights of the season this year due to severe back pain - a severe herniated disc in the last disc floor.
She is 26 years old, 164 centimeters short and likes to race down snow-covered mountains at more than 100 kilometers per hour: Alexandra Coletti , professional skier from Monaco, her country's flag bearer at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada, likes it fast. The numerous falls showed that the slopes in international competitions are not always harmless, even for top skiers.
A recent study was able to show that football players from the US national team who suffer from a herniated disc in the cervical spine benefit significantly from surgical treatment.
