“…The hybridized version of transforaminal endoscopy consisting of an initial "outside-in" approach with decompression in the epidural space followed by the intradiscal "inside-out" decompression under direct visualization is a result of years of outcome research recently published by the authors. 3,33 Fiveyear follow-up data clearly showed lower reoperation rates if the "inside-out" treatment of intradiscal pain generators was included in the transforaminal decompression surgery. 33 Consequently, the authors started combining the 2 techniques sometimes in different order of steps but eventually arriving at the same end-result-a combined "outside-in" and "inside-out" endoscopic decompression procedure to treat pain generators in the epidural space as well as inside the disease intervertebral disc.…”

“…Therefore, the authors decided to retrospectively study the result obtained by using neuromonitoring during transforaminal videoendoscopy in patients who were treated for herniated discs. While the three senior key opinion leader (KOL) surgeons (JFRL, ATY, and KUL) of this article have performed over 18,000 endoscopic spine surgeries between them [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ] under monitored local anesthesia care (MAC) and sedation [ 12 , 18 , 19 ] with minimal complications [ 1 , 20 ] and utilizing the patients’ direct intraoperative feedback to treat validated pain generators [ 11 , 15 , 19 , 21 , 22 ], they recognize that neuromonitoring in some countries and in some clinical settings is the standard of care [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ] in spite of added cost [ 33 ]. In some instances, it may even be a matter of necessity if MAC protocols for spine surgery are not supported by the local anesthesia teams.…”
