Current and potential use of spinal canal endoscopy/epiduroscopy

AbstractWith the recent ageing of society, we frequently encounter patients with lower back and leg pain. In most patients, various conservative treatment methods are initially selected according to their pathological physiology. For patients who do not respond to conservative treatment, invasive treatment such as surgery is considered. However, patients that cannot be successfully treated conservatively do not always tolerate surgery. In recent years, minimally invasive treatment methods lying between conservative and invasive methods have shown favourable effects.
