Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Full-endoscopic cervical medial branch neurotomy (FECMBN) is a
minimally invasive procedure for chronic cervical facet joint pain. The procedure
involves advanced endoscopic visualization and surgical instruments to achieve precise
neurotomy of the medial branch innervating the cervical pain facet joint complex. In
this chapter, the authors summarize the key features of the posterior full-endoscopic
cervical medial branch neurotomy, including its advantages over traditional nonvisualized radiofrequency-based ablation procedures regarding the treatment effect's
safety, efficacy, and durability. They employ illustrative step-by-step instructions that
the novice endoscopic spine surgeon can employ to execute the posterior fullendoscopic cervical medial branch neurotomy safely and effectively.
