MIS-open: a microinvasive open technique for lumbar disc herniation. Technical note and preliminary results
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: Lumbar microdiscectomy is the standard surgical treatment for symptomatic lumbar disc herniation after failed conservative care. Tubular and endoscopic approaches reduce access trauma but require dedicated equipment and a learning curve. We describe MIS-open, an open microinvasive technique performed under the operating microscope through a skin incision of approximately 1 cm.
