The term “minimally invasive spinal surgery” was coined in early 1990 following pub- cation of the first edition of this text entitled Arthroscopic Microdiscectomy: Minimal Intervention in Spinal Surgery, and subsequent establishment of the International Society for Minimal Intervention in Spinal Surgery (ISMISS) under the auspices of the International Society of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology (SICOT) in April l990. The orthopedic and neurological surgeons who participated in lectures and hands-on wo- shops both in Philadelphia and abroad have witnessed the evolution of minimally invasive spinal surgery from blind nucleotomy to endoscopic fragmentectomy, decompression of l- eral recess stenosis, foraminoplasty, and spinal stabilization. In Arthroscopic and Endoscopic Spinal Surgery: Text and Atlas, Second Edition, experts describe and illustrate various techniques and approaches that are currently used in this field. In addition, the ongoing research for the betterment of spine care via minimally invasive approaches is briefly reviewed. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to so many of my colleagues who s- ported my efforts in the field of minimally invasive spinal surgery throughout the years. Many of them participated in our teaching symposiums and have provided valuable cont- butions to this text.

Percutaneous lumbar discectomy is a new surgical method for treating lumbar disc diseases. The goal of the procedure is decompression of the spinal nerve root by percutaneous removal of the nucleus pulposus under local anesthesia. Probably 20 % of all patients requiring lumbar disc surgery can be successfully treated by this method. During the past two years, percutaneous discectomy has spread rapidly, and it is now performed in most clinical departments engaged in spinal surgery. The first International Symposium on Percutaneous Lumbar Discectomy, held in Berlin in August 1988, covered all current procedures known as "percutaneous discectomy" and the entire range of percutaneous techniques, both clinical and experimental. Its publication is important because of the recency of this new surgical procedure, the outstanding experience of the speakers - including the Japanese, American, and European "pioneers" of the technique - and last but not least the gaps in the knowledge of physicians concerning this topic. This procedure opens up new perspectives in the surgical treatment of degenerative diseases of the lumbar spine.

In the past few years spine surgery has undergone revolutionary changes leading towards minimally invasive techniques. This book is a survey of microsurgical as well as endoscopic surgical techniques for the treatment of a variety of spinal disorders. The structure of the individual chapters includes terminology, history, surgical principles, advantages/disadvantages, indications, surgical technique, complications and hazards as well as results. However all chapters are focused on a very didactic presentation of surgical steps. Thus, the reader will get familiar with a variety of new techniques some of which are already integrated into clinical routine others still being part of ongoing clinical trials and development.

This book issues all aspects of minimally invasive spine surgery. From interventional techniques such as nerve block to multilevel fusion surgery, the field of minimally invasive surgery is organized by chapter from basics to the end. Each chapter will include various figures and tables, and videos will be added in the surgery-related parts. A special focus will be placed on spinal endoscopic surgery, which has undergone rapid development in recent years. Both full-endoscopic spine surgery and uni-portal bilateral endoscopic will be dealt. Various surgical approaches and procedures will be presented for disc-herniated disease and stenotic legion from cervical to lumbar. The new technology solution such as navigation-guided spine surgery and robot surgery and artificial and augmented reality will be introduced.

This book is devoted to the full endoscopic transforaminal approach, which is the beginning and basis of all spinal endoscopic interventions and was prepared digitally in Epub-3 format. It is planned to appeal to neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons who are new to or currently practicing endoscopic surgery. We gave wide coverage to endoscopic anatomy of the intervertebral foramen, the basis of a successful transforaminal intervention. All anatomical studies in the literature were reviewed and the anatomical structures that make up the intervertebral foramen were presented to the reader with endoscopic surgery videos. We hope that these videos will, to some extent, fill the lack of visual material in the field of endoscopic surgical anatomy. Preoperative planning is discussed under a separate chapter. Preoperative planning for different cases is clarified in detail and supported by rich radiology galleries. The basic stages of surgical intervention (spinal needle placement, discography, guiding rod and cannula placement) are presented to the reader with anatomical models combined with surgical videos. Lumbar disc herniations are discussed in separate groups as non-migrated, migrated and extraforaminal herniations. To that end, the videos of 22 surgeries performed on 19 patients were included in the book as the case studies. In these case studies, pre-operative and post-operative radiological examinations of patients are presented to the reader in the galleries. Operative videos were specially edited and enriched with operative X-Ray images to provide anatomical orientation of the reader. Another feature of the book is its format. The frequently used hard copy format prevents the authors from using sufficient visual material. Using excessive visual material especially in textbooks where radiological studies are predominant, breaks the connection between images and text and puts the reader in a challenging reading process. Current digital book formats, on the other hand, oblige the reader to constantly access the video over the internet and then return to the text. All visual material in Epub-3 format used in our book is embedded in the book. Thus, the reader can access any material in the text without an internet connection and without being distracted from the text and can watch the visual material on a full screen if desired. The Epub-3 format also makes it easier for the reader to navigate and search within the book. In addition, when the reader downloads the book, they have the opportunity to read it offline on their phone, tablet, or laptop whenever they desire.

Biportal endoscopic spine surgery has been rapidly developed recently, and Unilateral biportal endoscopic spine (UBE) surgery may be new stream in spine surgery. UBE surgery is a new concept of surgery that is different from the existing one portal endoscopic surgery, and has the advantage of being familiar with spinal surgeons as the surgical anatomy is similar to a general surgical method, and the learning curve period is short. The 4mm diameter endoscope provides a very clear image, and it can be safely operated under magnified and clear endoscopic view. It is also available to use general surgical instruments in addition to endoscopic surgical instruments during UBE approaches. Currently it is being performed not only in the lumbar spine, but also in the cervical and thoracic spine. In addition, simple laminectomy, disc removal, and spinal fusion are possible. With the advancement of UBE surgery, spinal surgeons from various countries have been performing UBE in recent years, and it is gradually spreading to the world. This will be the first book summarizing from basic to advanced techniques with abundant illustrations and video aid for easy understanding.
