Percutaneous Transforaminal Endoscopic Discectomy for Lumbar Disk Herniation

Abstract: Percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy (PTED) is a minimally invasive technique to treat lumbar disk herniation from a lateral approach. Performed under local anesthesia, the incision size for PTED is around 8 mm with no paraspinal muscle cutting or detachment from their insertion. PTED has been associated with less blood loss, faster rehabilitation, and less scarring of tissue than conventional open microdiscectomy. High-quality randomized controlled trials comparing PTED with open microdiscectomy … Show more

“…[14,[21][22][23][24]However, the learning curve of PTED technique is steep, which is di cult for many beginners to administer. [25]The poor curative effects and complications were common mostly because of the ambiguous anatomy under the endoscopy, so it is urgent to explore a still and distinct symbol to instruct the surgeons to recognize other tissue.…”

“…Percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy (PTED) is a surgical way to reduce the edema and aseptic inflammation of the nerve root. It has the advantages of being widely indicated, having a small trauma surface, low influence on body appearance, rapid recovery, simple postoperative care, and low cost [5][6][7] . In addition, PTED does not affect remedial treatment after surgery failure 8 .…”

“…This technique was then improved, and in 2003 the first micro-endoscopic discectomy was performed [6]. Smaller incision, less muscle and paraspinal tissue damage, lower blood loss, shorter hospital stay, less postoperative pain, and shorter recovery time are the advantages of this technique [6,8].…”
