Percutaneous Lumbar Discectomy by H. Michael Mayer,Mario Brock Pdf
Percutaneous lumbar discectomy is a new surgical method for treating lumbar disc diseases. The goal of the procedure is decompression of the spinal nerve root by percutaneous removal of the nucleus pulposus under local anesthesia. Probably 20 % of all patients requiring lumbar disc surgery can be successfully treated by this method. During the past two years, percutaneous discectomy has spread rapidly, and it is now performed in most clinical departments engaged in spinal surgery. The first International Symposium on Percutaneous Lumbar Discectomy, held in Berlin in August 1988, covered all current procedures known as "percutaneous discectomy" and the entire range of percutaneous techniques, both clinical and experimental. Its publication is important because of the recency of this new surgical procedure, the outstanding experience of the speakers - including the Japanese, American, and European "pioneers" of the technique - and last but not least the gaps in the knowledge of physicians concerning this topic. This procedure opens up new perspectives in the surgical treatment of degenerative diseases of the lumbar spine.
Atlas of Automated Percutaneous Lumbar Discectomy (A.P.L.D.) by Antonio Solini Pdf
Percutaneous nuclectomy according to the Onik method is an avantgarde method used to remove the intervertebral disc by percutaneous access and with closed surgery. The instrumentation and the procedure are simple. The main feature is the smaller diameter of the probe (2mm) which fragments and aspires the small chips of pulpy nucleus. It reduces the risk of discitic infections (occurring in various percentages with all methods of percutaneous discectomy) because the hole in the anulus, being small, closes spontaneously after the probe is removed. Moreover postoperative acute lumbar pain has been reported to occur less frequently. This method is carried out under local anesthesia, with radioscopic and intraoperative discographic monitoring. By consulting this atlas orthopaedists, neurosurgeons and neuroradiologists may learn this method easily, because every detail is clearly presented and illustrated with a great number of coloured pictures.

Transforaminal Endoscopy for Lumbar Spine by Sang-Ho Lee,Sang-Ha Shin,Junseok Bae,Sang-Joon Park Pdf
Endoscopic spine surgery is the essence of the minimally invasive surgery technique. It’s a gradually developing field of spine surgery. Nevertheless, many doctors still have difficulties in acquiring an endoscope by themselves. This is especially true for transforaminal approach endoscopy. The editors of the book are pioneers in endoscopy and have had many interesting experiences related to transforaminal endoscopy. Since each patient has a different anatomy and disc shape, there are numerous practical techniques suitable for it, but few are specifically able to describe it. The main purpose of this book is to provide the essence of endoscopy to date, based on actual video images and practical techniques of transforaminal endoscopy accumulated over decades.

The Disc and Degenerative Disc Disease by Luigi Manfrè,Johan Van Goethem Pdf
This easy-to-consult guide examines the most advanced techniques in the radiological evaluation of the disc and degenerative disc disease, using conventional, functional, dynamic and advanced imaging. It provides clear information on a range of CT, X-ray, and MRI guided techniques, presents all disc treatments in connection with symptomatic disc herniations, evaluates conservative, chemical (ESI, steroid, Ozone, ethanol gel injections) and physical treatments (coblation, laser, decompressors, endoscopy), and assesses the possibility of repairing and/or regenerating the disc in the context of reversible disc degeneration. Like other books in the Springer series New Procedures in Spinal Interventional Neuroradiology, this practice-oriented volume will fill a significant gap in the literature and meet the need expressed by many specialists (interventional neuroradiologists and radiologists, neurosurgeons, and orthopedists) for a topical and handy guide that specifically illustrates the currently available materials and methods.

Image-Guided Spine Interventions by John M. Mathis Pdf
The field of interventional radiology is constantly undergoing change, and its procedures evolve over time. There is currently tremendous pressure on our specialty, as cardiology and vascular surgery app- priate existing vascular interventions. We need to be looking constantly for new procedures that will replace this loss. In the 1980s, the int- duction of vascular access provided new procedures that included the placement of temporary venous catheters, ports, tunneled catheters, and dialysis maintenance. As a result of vascular access the number of procedures performed in some interventional labs doubled. The same revolution is occurring again with the advent of image-guided spine intervention. Five percent of the American population at any one time has back pain. This huge patient population is seeking help for this disabling and persistent problem. Image-Guided Spine Interventions describes the varied and numerous procedures that are available to the image-guided interventionist, who may provide these therapies for the spine. This book embraces clinical evaluation, pharmacological requirements, procedural recommen- tions, and a spectrum of procedures that will be of interest to the image-guided spine interventionist. It covers a broad range of ma- rial that is presented by experts in each field, including discography, intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET), percutaneous discectomy, vertebroplasty and ballon kyphoplasty, epidural steroid injections, - lective nerve root blocks and autonomic nerve blockade, diagnostic epidurography and therapeutic epidurolysis, sacroiliac and facet joint injections, implanted drug delivery systems, and epidural blood and fibrin patches for CSF leaks.

This minimally invasive procedure can be used to treat various spinal conditions, such as herniated nucleus pulposus, discogenic pain, foraminal stenosis, lateral recess stenosis, and infection. The book offers an overview of TELD, and discusses discectomy, thermal annulplasty (TA) and other trending topics. It also explores the history and anatomy of transforaminal full-endoscopic lumbar surgery, complications, TELD techniques, and TELD and TA for athletes. As such the book provides a much-needed foundation for the further development of this increasingly widespread procedure. Transforaminal Full-Endoscopic Lumbar Surgery Under the Local Anesthesia is a valuable resource for orthopedic surgeons, clinical residents and medical students, alike.
Laser Spine Surgery by Junseok Bae,Sang-Ho Lee Pdf
This book describes and illustrates state-of-the-art techniques in laser spine surgery. Laser technology has revolutionized surgeries in many specialties to perform minimally invasive and cutting-edge procedures. Recent advances in spinal surgery have led to the increasingly widespread use of minimally invasive techniques based on endoscopy and microscopy. Nevertheless, the application of laser in the context of spinal surgery remains less well known, and the aim of this book is to present practical usage of laser in spine surgery to our readers. A wide variety of minimally invasive approaches to spine surgery using CO2, Ho: YAG, and Nd: YAG lasers are presented in detail, with a discussion of equipment and specific recommendations on laser settings. Care has been taken to ensure that the content is faithful to the fundamental principles of spine surgery and evidence-based medicine. The book will be an essential resource for all who use or are intending to use lasers in spine surgery.

Full Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy by M. Hikmet Uluğ,A. Kadir Birler Pdf
This book is devoted to the full endoscopic transforaminal approach, which is the beginning and basis of all spinal endoscopic interventions and was prepared digitally in Epub-3 format. It is planned to appeal to neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons who are new to or currently practicing endoscopic surgery. We gave wide coverage to endoscopic anatomy of the intervertebral foramen, the basis of a successful transforaminal intervention. All anatomical studies in the literature were reviewed and the anatomical structures that make up the intervertebral foramen were presented to the reader with endoscopic surgery videos. We hope that these videos will, to some extent, fill the lack of visual material in the field of endoscopic surgical anatomy. Preoperative planning is discussed under a separate chapter. Preoperative planning for different cases is clarified in detail and supported by rich radiology galleries. The basic stages of surgical intervention (spinal needle placement, discography, guiding rod and cannula placement) are presented to the reader with anatomical models combined with surgical videos. Lumbar disc herniations are discussed in separate groups as non-migrated, migrated and extraforaminal herniations. To that end, the videos of 22 surgeries performed on 19 patients were included in the book as the case studies. In these case studies, pre-operative and post-operative radiological examinations of patients are presented to the reader in the galleries. Operative videos were specially edited and enriched with operative X-Ray images to provide anatomical orientation of the reader. Another feature of the book is its format. The frequently used hard copy format prevents the authors from using sufficient visual material. Using excessive visual material especially in textbooks where radiological studies are predominant, breaks the connection between images and text and puts the reader in a challenging reading process. Current digital book formats, on the other hand, oblige the reader to constantly access the video over the internet and then return to the text. All visual material in Epub-3 format used in our book is embedded in the book. Thus, the reader can access any material in the text without an internet connection and without being distracted from the text and can watch the visual material on a full screen if desired. The Epub-3 format also makes it easier for the reader to navigate and search within the book. In addition, when the reader downloads the book, they have the opportunity to read it offline on their phone, tablet, or laptop whenever they desire.
