ESCAPE : Evaluation of Spinal Conservation by Endoscopic Procedures to Avoid Fusion

The recent development and expansion of endoscopic surgery has made it possible to offer an alternative to this therapeutic escalation. This method allows decompression procedures to be performed using optimized and minimally destructive surgical approaches, which contributes to preserving the physiological function of the lumbar spine and in particular its stability. The main hypothesis of the research is that the use of endoscopic techniques for decompression of the lumbar spine allows a reduction in the indication for lumbar arthrodesis.
