Abstract:
:This article presents an update of the field of percutaneous discectomy and a perspective as to where percutaneous discectomy currently fits in the treatment of patients with herniated discs. The future of minimally invasive disc surgery is also entertained, and a novel approach to lumbar disc surgery is presented.
