PELD Transforaminal Endoscopic Spine System: Minimally‑Invasive Solution for Lumbar Spine Disorders

Lumbar disc herniation, spinal stenosis and hypertrophic ligamentum flavum cause severe radiating leg pain and lower‑back discomfort for countless patients. PELD (Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy, transforaminal endoscopic spine surgery) becomes one of the gold‑standard minimally invasive treatments for lumbar spine disease, greatly lowering trauma compared with traditional open laminectomy surgery.

Different from open spine surgery which cuts large muscle tissue and damages lamina bone structure, PELD establishes a working channel around 7 mm through the intervertebral foramen. Surgeons deliver endoscope inside spinal canal under direct visualization to remove herniated nucleus pulposus, decompress compressed nerve root, resect hypertrophic ligamentum flavum and relieve spinal stenosis. It preserves spinal stability, brings minimal soft‑tissue trauma, less intraoperative blood loss, shorter hospital stay and faster post‑op rehabilitation.

Full‑Set Composition of PELD Endoscopic Spine System

The transforaminal spine endoscopic workstation shares the high‑definition imaging platform with arthroscopy, while matching special spine‑oriented endoscope, burr drill and radio‑frequency tips for spinal anatomy features.

1. Spine rigid endoscope & complete surgical instrument kit Our transforaminal endoscope mainly adopts 30‑degree viewing angle (0° /15° optional for special cases). Common outer diameter options:5.9 mm,6.3 mm,6.9 mm, matched with corresponding working cannulas. Manufactured with imported stainless steel tube and rod‑lens optical technology, sapphire lens avoids scratch. It supports high‑pressure autoclave and low‑temperature plasma sterilization. Full set surgical accessories cover puncture needles, dilators of different sizes, working cannulas in multiple window shapes, bone drills, ring curettes, grasping forceps, punch forceps, probes and auxiliary manipulation tools for the whole PELD workflow.

2. Spine‑specific power shaver & burr drill system Equipped with diamond burr bits for bone grinding. Surgeons use burr drill to reshape facet joint, expand intervertebral foramen and lateral recess, remove osteophytes. Shaver cutter heads resect hypertrophic ligamentum flavum, scar tissue and loose nucleus pulposus. Built‑in suction evacuates bone dust and tissue fragments. Since bone grinding leads to oozing bleeding, the power system must coordinate with plasma radio‑frequency devices.

3. Plasma radio‑frequency surgical system for spine Operated under 40‑70℃ low temperature, the radio‑frequency unit performs intra‑canal hemostasis, residual nucleus pulposus ablation, annulus fibrosus thermal shrinkage, nerve root adhesion release and sinu‑vertebral nerve coagulation for back‑pain relief. Low‑temperature plasma technology avoids thermal burn risk for nerve root and dura mater, which is critical for spinal endoscopic safety. It cannot grind hard bone tissue, so it always cooperates with power burr drill.

4. Irrigation pump system Sustained saline irrigation cleans bone dust and blood inside spinal canal, cools working tips, stabilizes intra‑canal pressure and keeps clear endoscopic vision through the whole spinal decompression process.

FAQ

Q: What’s the difference between arthroscope and PELD foraminoscope?

A: Arthroscope treats knee/shoulder limb joints with small channels; foraminoscope is for lumbar spine, larger channel for bone grinding. They share camera, light source, energy system and irrigation pump.

Q: Can shaver replace plasma radiofrequency?

A: No, they are complementary. Shaver quickly removes bulk tissue/bone spurs; plasma does low-temp trimming, hemostasis and ligament shrinkage. We sell separate units or integrated dual-energy machine.

Q: Do you have medical certifications and support OEM?

A: All items have CE, FDA, ISO13485, RoHS for tender & customs. We offer OEM logo engraving, neutral packing and customized instrument kits for distributors.

Q: Is the irrigation pump usable for both joint and spine surgery?

A: Yes, fully universal. It expands cavity, flushes debris, cools tissue and aids hemostasis, with adjustable pressure & flow for all ortho endoscopic procedures.
