Endoscopic spine surgery (ESS) has traditionally been employed for lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Recent innovations in surgical methods and technologies have expanded its range to address other spinal pathologies, providing minimally invasive solutions with potential clinical benefits. Our review aims summarize the applications, outcomes, limitations of ESS beyond LDH, focusing on role complex conditions such as stenosis, thoracic herniation, tumors, synovial cysts, failed back syndrome. A thorough literature was conducted assess current evidence regarding applications LDH surgery. Areas focus included technology technique, well comparisons conventional open methods. shows notable across different by alternatives traditional Its use could be associated reduced morbidity, shorter recovery times, improved patient outcomes. In particular, is versatile addressing both degenerative neoplastic spine. Despite this, challenges technical complexity, steep learning curves, limited indications certain pathologies remain barriers wider adoption. evolving surgery, extending utility While largely supports efficacy, further studies are needed present optimize application. Future developments training will likely enhance adoption broaden indications.
