Download or read book Transforaminal Endoscopy for Lumbar Spine written by Sang-Ho Lee and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-30 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endoscopic spine surgery is the essence of the minimally invasive surgery technique. It’s a gradually developing field of spine surgery. Nevertheless, many doctors still have difficulties in acquiring an endoscope by themselves. This is especially true for transforaminal approach endoscopy. The editors of the book are pioneers in endoscopy and have had many interesting experiences related to transforaminal endoscopy. Since each patient has a different anatomy and disc shape, there are numerous practical techniques suitable for it, but few are specifically able to describe it. The main purpose of this book is to provide the essence of endoscopy to date, based on actual video images and practical techniques of transforaminal endoscopy accumulated over decades.

Download or read book Percutaneous Lumbar Discectomy written by H. Michael Mayer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book excerpt: This book describes and illustrates state-of-the-art techniques in laser spine surgery. Laser technology has revolutionized surgeries in many specialties to perform minimally invasive and cutting-edge procedures. Recent advances in spinal surgery have led to the increasingly widespread use of minimally invasive techniques based on endoscopy and microscopy. Nevertheless, the application of laser in the context of spinal surgery remains less well known, and the aim of this book is to present practical usage of laser in spine surgery to our readers. A wide variety of minimally invasive approaches to spine surgery using CO2, Ho: YAG, and Nd: YAG lasers are presented in detail, with a discussion of equipment and specific recommendations on laser settings. Care has been taken to ensure that the content is faithful to the fundamental principles of spine surgery and evidence-based medicine. The book will be an essential resource for all who use or are intending to use lasers in spine surgery.

Download or read book Endoscopic Spine Surgery written by Daniel H. Kim and published by Thieme. This book was released on 2018-01-10 with total page 1119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endoscopic technology has advanced to the point where practitioners can now access, visualize, and treat spine pathologies previously only accessible through open surgical approaches. Endoscopic Spine Surgery 2nd Edition provides a comprehensive background on endoscopic spine surgery and covers an unparalleled number of minimally invasive spine procedures that have revolutionized the spine treatment paradigm. Readers will greatly benefit from many years of expertise and wisdom shared by master spine surgeons Daniel Kim, Gun Choi, Sang-Ho Lee, and Richard Fessler, and their expert contributors. Due to the narrow endoscopic view, subtle microanatomical differences in the lumbar, thoracic, and cervical regions are not always easy to visually discern. To address this challenge, the book contains detailed procedural descriptions and images mirroring endoscopic views spine surgeons encounter in the OR. Organized anatomically, 53 chapters guide readers systematically through lumbar, thoracic, cervical, and craniocervical junction procedures for pathologies ranging from low back pain and deformities to tumors, lesions, infections, and trauma. Key Features More than 1000 high quality images including color procedural photographs and medical illustrations provide in-depth visual understanding. Spinal pathologies and procedures delineated in 75 videos accessible via the Media Center - from case studies to step-by-step technique tutorials. Covers the full spectrum of spine endoscopy including percutaneous approaches, microdiscectomy, laminectomy, discectomy foraminotomy, hemilaminectomy, thoracic decompressions, fusion, fixation, and thoracoscopic procedures. The use of state-of-the-art technology such as ultrasonic bone dissectors, endoscopic radiofrequency denervation, the video telescope operating monitor (VITOM), minimally invasive tubular retractors, and 3D stereo-tubular endoscopic systems. Neurosurgical and orthopaedic residents, spine fellows, and seasoned spine surgeons will all greatly benefit from the significant knowledge and insights revealed in this remarkable multimedia resource. This book may also be of interest to neurosurgical and orthopaedic nurses, physical therapists, chiropractors, and medical device professionals.

Download or read book Full Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy written by M. Hikmet Uluğ and published by Hikmet Uluğ. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Minimally Invasive Thoracic Spine Surgery written by Sang-Ho Lee and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-12 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and illustrates a variety of minimally invasive approaches to the thoracic spine, covering procedures applicable in not only degenerative diseases but also deformities and trauma. Surgery to the thoracic spine is demanding because of the surrounding ribs, lungs, heart, and large blood vessels and the challenges posed by the vulnerable spinal cord within a relatively small spinal canal. Consequently, postsurgical morbidity is often high. In this context, minimally invasive surgery offers significant benefits, but to date, comprehensive coverage in textbooks is lacking owing to the limited experience in the use of minimally invasive surgical techniques. This book will be ideal for all who are searching for clear guidance that is faithful to the established principles of spine surgery and evidence-based medicine. In addition to the comprehensive coverage of procedures appropriate in different pathologies, including thoracic disc herniation, ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament, ossification of the ligamentum flavum, and stenosis, individual chapters address the transforaminal endoscopic approach, interventional treatment, intraoperative neuromonitoring, and navigation for thoracic spine surgery.
