Abstract

Lumbar intervertebral disc herniation (LDH) is a syndrome caused by various reasons such as nucleus pulposus protrusion, compression of nerve root and herniation of nucleus pulposus, and stimulation of nerve root and cauda equina nerve. It is one of the most common diseases in orthopedics. There are a variety of surgical treatments for this disease, including traditional open surgery and minimally invasive techniques. At present, the minimally invasive technique represented by percutaneous transforaminal endoscopy has gradually replaced the traditional open surgery as the mainstream because of its advantages of less trauma, faster recovery and fewer complications. This article will systematically expound the application and progress of percutaneous lumbar intervertebral foraminoscopy in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation from the development course, indications, operation skills, matters needing attention, curative effect analysis, complications and so on. Key words: Lumbar vertebrae/SU; Intervertebral disk displacement/SU; Diskectomy, percutaneous; Endoscopy; Review
