Advanced Technique of Endoscopic Cervical and Thoracic Spine Surgery

In the past, the cervical and thoracic vertebrae were areas that were not well performed by spinal endoscopy. However, with the rapid development of spinal endoscopic surgery techniques and instruments, various kinds of spinal endoscopic approaches are currently performing and developing in the cervical and thoracic spine. This is the first book covering the latest knowledge of cervical and thoracic spinal endoscopic surgery.
This book will provide abundant illustrations and also surgical videos so that it can be easily understood by spinal surgeons who are learning and studying spinal endoscopy. In addition, the prevention of complications associated with endoscopic surgery will be discussed in detail.
