Abstract
AbstractImprovements in technology have finally enabled direct visualisation of the epidural space, a longed-for requirement. From 1996, an epiduroscope from Myelotec has been employed widely in clinical practice. However, results suggest that further refinements are necessary. In the future, epiduroscopy should be a an integral part of surgery, be less-invasive, and used in conjunction with operative instruments such as a drilling device, an ultrasonic probe, or a laser beam. Such applications will lead to a reduction in medical costs.
