Abstract

Biportal endoscopic approaches may have expandability. Cervical posterior instrumentations usually need wide muscle dissection. Minimally invasive cervical approach can reduce iatrogenic muscle injury and postoperative wound pain. Minimally invasive cervical surgery can enhance recovery after surgery. Biportal endoscopic approaches may have expandability. We attempted the biportal endoscopy assistant cervical posterior instrumentations. We introduced and described the surgical technique for UBE-assisted posterior cervical instrumentation for lateral mass screw fixation in subaxial cervical spine and lag screw fixation for C2, different from the tubular retractor system.
