Procedure

This is a powerful approach option for treating all types of thoracic disc herniations while significantly minimizing collateral damage, blood loss, postoperative pain, and spinal cord manipulation.1-4 This is the only approach that offers an unobstructed view of the ventral thoracic canal without extensive bony resection and without requiring entry into the thoracic cavity.&nbsp;

Endoscopic Thoracic Transforaminal Discectomy

Child (D)

The traditional open approach for treating far lateral disc herniations at L5-S1 is challenging. Alternatively, the transforaminal endoscopic approach lands directly at the far lateral zone and requires little or no facet resection to achieve decompression.

Endoscopic Far Lateral Transforaminal Lumbar Discectomy 

Minimally invasive endoscopic cervical foraminotomy and decompression is designed to treat cervical radiculopathy and other conditions that compress the nerve root. Utilizing an endoscope, surgeons can directly visualize and remove compressive pathology such as disc herniations, osteophytes, and hypertrophic ligaments. This technique minimizes soft-tissue disruption, reduces blood loss, allows for quicker recovery, and has demonstrated high clinical success rates, with a systematic review reporting 91.3% overall and up to 94.2% for posterior approaches.1,2 Additionally, long-term follow-ups show lasting symptom relief, high patient satisfaction, and a lower risk of adjacent segment disease compared to traditional ACDF surgery.3
Potential applications include treatment of cervical radiculopathy, herniated cervical discs, cervical spondylosis, foraminal stenosis, and osteophytes (bone spurs). Research supports its effectiveness in treating both soft disc herniations, where the nucleus pulposus compresses the nerve root, and hard disc herniations caused by calcified disc material.4 A lower incidence of spinal instability has also been reported, suggesting a reduced need for future spinal fusion procedures.5
Careful patient selection is key to optimal surgical outcomes; those with major deformity, instability, or large central herniations may require alternative surgery. With proper selection and advancing technology, this method remains a safe, effective, and motion-preserving option for cervical nerve decompression.1

Cervical Foraminotomy and Decompression

Die endoskopische Methode der interlaminären Diskektomie bietet einen minimal-invasiven Zugang zu posterioren Herniationen in der unteren Lendenwirbelsäule, die über einen transforaminalen Zugang nur schwer zu erreichen sind. Des Weiteren führt die interlaminäre Diskektomie zu weniger Gewebe- und Muskelverletzungen, kürzeren Heilungszeiten und einer schnelleren Wiederaufnahme von Tätigkeiten als bei herkömmlichen offenen Eingriffen.1-4 Endoskopische WishBone-Instrumente zeichnen sich durch eine hervorragende Haptik und eine verbesserte Ergonomie aus, wodurch die invertierte und retrograde Anwendung mit beiden Händen erleichtert wird.

Interlaminäre endoskopische Diskektomie

Eine transforaminale oder paraspinale Vorgehensweise bietet die Möglichkeit, weit lateral gelegene Bandscheibenvorfälle zu erreichen. Durch die Verwendung einer wirbelsäulenspezifischen Endoskopieoptik werden Weichteilverletzungen minimiert, was zu weniger postoperativen Schmerzen führt.1,2 Darüber hinaus haben Studien gezeigt, dass etwa 85 % der Patienten, die sich einer endoskopischen lumbalen Diskektomie unterzogen haben, bereits nach 6 bis 8 Wochen wieder sportlich aktiv waren.3,4
