All the surgeons I asked this questions said that such surgery results in even more scar tissue growing back...

I have heard exactly the same, it results in more scar tissue, so they don't do it ( at least not in my parts of the world; scandinavia)

I wonder if it acts the same as abdominal adhesions, scar tissue from previous surgeries? There is a surgeon in Germany who specializes in eliminating these, and maybe he would be able to address those in the spine as well.
I know that the abdominal ones cause great grief with me, and the pain even breaks through the narcotics I take for my back pain. Yet no doctor here will operate as they insist they just come back. I'm ready to try the one over there instead.
