Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS), also called ‘Keyhole’ or ‘Endoscopic’ Spine Surgery is a surgical approach that targets the bones of the spine using smaller incisions compared to traditional open surgery.
This technique minimises damage to surrounding muscles and tissues, resulting in less postoperative pain and quicker recovery times.
During MISS, surgeons use a tubular retractor—a stiff, tube-shaped tool—to create a tunnel to the affected area of the spine, allowing for the insertion of specialised instruments.
Advanced technologies such as high-resolution cameras, operating microscopes, computer-assisted guidance, and real-time X-rays enhance the precision of these procedures.
These surgeries may be recommended for various spinal conditions that have not improved with conservative treatments such as medication and physical therapy.
Unilateral biportal endoscopy (UBE) is a type of Transforminal Endoscopic Surgery which is a minimally invasive technique that uses two portals on the same side of the body to treat spinal disorders.
