- Limited intervention, as it does not involve any incisions or surgical procedures.
- Precise endoscopy is an easy and safe method characterized by quick execution and does not require a long time.
- The patient does not need to stay in the hospital for a long period; they can usually leave on the same day.
- The recovery period is short and typically limited to three days at home.
- The possibility of avoiding the installation of screws and plates to stabilize the vertebrae after the procedure.
- Precise endoscopy is a permanent treatment, not a temporary solution for disc herniation.
- It can be performed as a medical procedure for all age groups, including the elderly and cases of extreme obesity.
- The occurrence of infections is rare and almost nonexistent, as there are no wounds, bleeding, or blood transfer during the procedure.
However, the patient must follow medical instructions correctly to avoid problems afterward and ensure achieving the desired results from the treatment.
