Minimally invasive treatment of lumbar disc herniation is very useful. The treatment of lumbar disc herniation has a history of several hundred years, and open disc surgery was done abroad 200 years ago. At present, it is mainly treated by using percutaneous puncture technique or endoscopy, and the efficacy is comparable to that of open surgery. Minimally invasive treatment has many modalities, as follows: 1, radiofrequency ablation of the disc is very effective for patients whose nucleus pulposus has not completely fallen out, the principle is to reduce the pressure in the nucleus pulposus and reduce the pressure of nerve root extrusion; 2, endoscopic direct removal of the disc, this technology has developed very fast in China over the past decade or so, and has gradually replaced the open nucleus pulposus removal surgery for 90% of herniated nucleus pulposus cases. Simple nucleus pulposus removal under minimally invasive endoscopy is a local anesthetic procedure, and once the nucleus pulposus is removed on the operating table, the patient’s pain symptoms can be significantly relieved, and the surgical effect can be judged immediately, and the patient only needs to be hospitalized for 24 hours and can be discharged on the second day. In contrast, traditional open surgery requires general anesthesia, and the surgical result can be determined only after the patient returns to the ward and is awake.
