Abstract: Tubular microdiscectomy (TM) offers a minimally invasive alternative to open lumbar discectomy. Using a small port, surgeons can access the herniated disc with minimal tissue disruption and achieve effective neural decompression. This video-based article provides a comprehensive step-by-step guide to TM, from patient positioning to final decompression, emphasizing strategies for safe and effective outcomes.
