Let’s get to know what this innovative Endoscopic Spine Surgery is …
An endoscope is one of the devices used in Endoscopic Spine Surgery. It helps improve accuracy and efficiency of the treatment while minimizing the injury to surrounding tissues. The treatment technique requires only 1 small incision of 8–12 mm. to insert an endoscope inside. Alternatively, the surgeons will make 2 incisions of 4 mm., one for the camera and the other for the surgery device.
The procedure of Endoscopic Surgery starts with making an incision at the target area before inserting the endoscope with a camera to see what’s inside. The perk of using an endoscope is that the surgeons are able to see real-time conditions of the patient’s spine clearly without causing a big scar, leading to higher precision and efficiency of the treatment as well as lower risk of complications. However, the selection of Endoscopic Surgery is upon the discretion of medical specialists and the patient’s health condition.
