Recently, the minimally invasive spine team of Zhuhai Hospital of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine successfully performed “minimally invasive percutaneous endoscopic disc removal of cervical spine” for a cervical spine patient. It is reported that this surgery is the first of its kind in Zhuhai. According to reports, 71-year-old Mrs. Li has a five-year history of cervical spine disease, nearly a month of severe pain in the neck and left upper limb so that she could not sleep at night, by the outside massage injection and medication and other conservative treatment have no effect, after the introduction of the Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Zhuhai Hospital, deputy director of the Department of Spine Chen Maoshui for consultation. The imaging examination showed that due to long-term cervical spine lesions, local hyperplasia and deformation, herniated discs caused severe nerve compression and required surgical removal of the discs. The traditional surgery required an anterior incision and decompression and implantation of plate internal fixation, which was costly, and Chen Maoshui suggested a posterior minimally invasive surgery. It is understood that the operation was completed under the guidance of Chen Bolai, director of the Minimally Invasive Spine Center of Guangdong Provincial Hospital, and Li Yongjin, deputy director, who only made a 0.5 cm rice-sized incision in the neck and put the endoscope into the herniated disc under fluoroscopy to remove the nerve compression without damaging the normal tissues and without implanting internal fixation, eliminating the patient’s concern about surgical scars, “paralysis”, and inability to remove the disc. This eliminates the patient’s fear of surgical scars, “paralysis”, and inability to flexibly rotate the cervical spine. The surgery lasted 2 hours, with less than 10 ml of bleeding, and Mrs. Li’s neck, shoulder and upper extremity pain disappeared immediately after the surgery. Early the next morning, Mrs. Li showed a long-awaited smile: “I could finally sleep peacefully last night”. What is “minimally invasive percutaneous endoscopic disc removal of the cervical spine”? It is understood that cervical minimally invasive percutaneous endoscopic disc removal, also known as KEY-HOLE surgery, means that the surgical incision is only the size of a “keyhole”, is an advanced, safe, effective and new minimally invasive spinal technology for the treatment of cervical disc herniation, and is also suitable for cervical disc herniation nucleus pulposus compressing the lateral edge of the spinal cord and nerve roots. It has the advantages of percutaneous minimally invasive, small trauma, less bleeding and quick recovery after surgery. Minimally invasive percutaneous endoscopic disc removal in the cervical spine is more technically demanding than the widely performed lumbar intervertebral foraminoscopic surgery.
