Summary: This book provides detailed advancement of endoscopic procedures of the spine. It covers basic knowledge of endoscopic procedures and dedicated introduction of surgical techniques for treatment of diseases in spine with better surgical outcome and less surgical morbidity. Endoscopic procedures with their advantage in surgical exposure and post-operative rehabilitation have been extensively performed in orthopedic diseases. Cases presentation with well-illustrated endoscopic photos for common clinical conditions was provided. The format is a step-by-step procedure for easy reference, particularly for surgeons in their training.
