Abstract

ObjectiveUnilateral Biportal Endoscopic decompression via interlaminar approach is an evolving minimally invasive technique to decompress the neural structures from either due to degenerative lumbar canal stenosis or herniated disc. The current study aims to highlight technical aspects of this procedure for safe and better clinical outcomes. FindingsUnilateral Biportal Endoscopy via interlaminar approach provides an excellent magnified and illuminated surgical field to satisfactorily decompress not only ipsilateral but contralateral side also. Dural tear and epidural hematomas are known complications; however, the incidence is low. ConclusionUnilateral Biportal Endoscopic decompression via interlaminar approach can safely and effectively decompress neural elements without destabilizing spine.
