Transformative Spinal Surgery: Lateral Position Unilateral Biportal Endoscopic Discectomy
The successful management of L4-L5 intervertebral disc prolapse using UBE in the lateral position in this case demonstrates the potential of this technique as an effective and minimally invasive alternative to conventional surgical methods. This approach could offer a viable solution for treating degenerative spinal diseases while mitigating the steep learning curve associated with ESS. Further research and clinical studies are necessary to validate and optimize this technique.
