Abstract
- Minimally invasive surgery is being increasingly used in numerous surgical procedures, and the management of intraspinal lesions is no exception. For spinal lesions, extensive muscle splitting and bony destruction induce fibrotic pain and spinal instability, increasing the possibility of unnecessary spinal fusion and fixation. The unilateral biportal endoscopic spine surgery technique (UBESST) is increasingly popular in minimally invasive spine surgery because it has wider indications for spine diseases and a freer view independent of surgical instruments. Herein, we introduce an alternative option where UBESST is used to manage extramedullary spinal lesions and avoid complications.
