The early and widespread use evolution of Endoscopic Spine Surgery in Taiwan
M
edical intervention must first be as trauma-free as possible, otherwise, the treatment effect can be worse than the natural
course of the disease. Medical or surgical intervention’s primary goal is an improvement in patient functional outcome.
Measuring functional improvement is accomplished usingmultiple standardized instruments. OpenMidline Lumbar Discectomy
is a familiar procedure to most spine surgeons and results in good outcomes. However, open surgery often requires muscle
retraction, bone resection of the lamina and facet joints and dural sac and nerve retraction.
Transforaminal Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy is a minimally invasive spinal surgery procedure that was introduced by
Kambin and Gellman in 1983. Advances in endoscopic visualization and instrumentation, as well as increased patient demand
for more minimally invasive procedures, have led to the increased popularity of the technique.
Minimally Invasive Transforaminal Endoscopic Procedures can achieve spinal decompression through either direct or
indirect techniques. Minimally Invasive Spinal Surgery is gradually expanding. These techniques must be fully understood
to fully understand the spine anatomy, have the correct clinical guidance and have a correct understanding of the underlying
complications.
Minimally Invasive Spine (MIS) procedures avoid extensive soft tissue dissection and disruption of the stabilizing paraspinal
musculature, which can substantially decrease postoperative morbidity and improve health care economics. There has been an
increasing demand for less invasive surgical options by both patients and referring physicians as evidence for the utility and
benefit of MIS techniques continues to propagate.
Biography
Jiao-Chiao Yang is a Spinal Surgeon who has fully engaged in the field of Minimally Invasive Spinal Surgery and established his own Lohas
Hospital, aiming to treat every patient with the best environment. Besides, he has a big heart to help all talented future generation which is
why he founded Taiwan Society of Spine Endoscopy Surgery as a platform to introduce the greatest technique from all over the world to
Taiwan. He is also an experienced surgeon, who is willing to share his vision and thought to every associate interested in the same medical
field, which is why it means a lot to him to participate in the grand event.
