Endoscopy will create a performance gap!
“MIS changed opportunities in spine surgery; however, Endoscopy is set to take things to a new level.”

We believe…
When patient experience and lower costs are your key drivers, then offering your patients Endoscopic Spine Surgery makes common sense. And given Biportal Endoscopy has a faster learning curve and covers a growing range of indications it will become the technique of choice creating a new standard.
What are the main technologies for endoscopic spine surgeries
Monoportal (also : uniportal or full-endoscopic) endoscopic spine surgery involves the use of a single portal or incision point to access the spine. In this technique, the surgeon inserts an endoscope through the small incision and navigates it to the affected area of the spine. This method requires minimal soft tissue dissection, as well as bone removal, resulting in a very small surgical scar and reduced postoperative pain. This approach is typically suited for simple herniations.
On the other hand, biportal endoscopic spine surgery (also: BESS or UBE (unilateral biportal endoscopic spine surgery)) uses two working portals or incisions to gain access to the spine. The first incision is used to insert the endoscope, while the second incision is used for surgical instruments. This method has a broader range of indications, ranging from herniations, stenoses and fusion.
Compared to monoportal endoscopy, biportal endoscopy provides excellent visualization of the surgical site and allows for more complex surgical procedures. Both monoportal and biportal endoscopic spine surgery are minimally invasive techniques that offer several advantages over traditional open and minimally invasive spinal surgeries. However, the choice between the two techniques depends on the patient’s specific condition and the surgeon’s preference and experience.
