Full endoscopic spine surgery is a technique to perform hernia extraction using a single-hole-type endoscope with a coaxial operation system of a sheath, endoscope, and surgical instrument in reflux water.

Not only is the skin incision small, but damage to muscle tissue is also minimal, which is why it is a minimally invasive surgery.

An 18-year-old female patient presented with a 1-month history of low back pain, which had worsened and was accompanied by radiating pain in the right lower limb for half a month. She was admitted to our hospital with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings suggesting calcification of the L3/4 disc and a large intraspinal mass at the L2-4 level. The patient's symptoms did not improve with conservative treatment, and her muscle strength rapidly declined.
