Minimally invasive far lateral tubular microdiscectomy: surgical technique and case series of 176 patients.
Eur Spine J

Brisbane Clinical Neuroscience Centre, Mater Hospital, South Brisbane, QLD, Australia.
Background: Far lateral (extraforaminal) disc herniations comprise approximately 10% of symptomatic lumbar disc herniations. They represent operative challenges due to accessibility and surgical unfamiliarity. Surgical strategies in the past have included open discectomy and posterior lumbar interbody fusion.

Objective: To evaluate the use of a modified minimally invasive surgery (MIS) technique for far lateral lumbar discectomy (FLDH) that minimizes the degree of bony drilling required for nerve root decompression, increasing postoperative pain reduction rate with reduced risk of iatrogenic spinal instability.
Summary Of Background Data: FLDH accounts for approximately 10% of all lumbar disc herniations and is increasingly recognized in the era of advanced imaging techniques. These disc herniations typically result in extra-foraminal nerve root compression.

Article Synopsis
- * A total of 49 patients underwent decompression surgery using different full-endoscopic approaches from 2016 to 2020, with follow-up data collected over 18 months.
- * Results showed successful decompression in all cases, though a few patients experienced complications; overall, most reported symptom improvement, highlighting the method as effective and minimally invasive.
Biportal endoscopic extraforaminal lumbar interbody fusion using a 3D-printed porous titanium cage with large footprints: technical note and preliminary results.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to introduce biportal endoscopic extraforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (BE-EFLIF), which involves insertion of a cage through a more lateral side as compared to the conventional corridor of transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion. We described the advantages and surgical steps of 3D-printed porous titanium cage with large footprints insertion through multi-portal approach, and preliminary results of this technique.
Methods: This retrospective study included 12 consecutive patients who underwent BE-EFLIF for symptomatic single-level lumbar degenerative disease.
