In many different surgical specialties, the use of indirect visualization has increasingly replaced the traditional direct visualizationduring surgery. Over the past few decades, the introduction of endoscopes has enabled surgeons to provide the same anatomical solution with fewer tissue dissections. At present, the aging trend of the population around the world is accelerating, resulting in an increasing incidence of spinal degenerative diseases. A minimally invasive technique called biportal endoscopic spine surgery has been popularized and developed rapidly in our country because of its advantages such as small side injury and rapid postoperative recovery. With the technical progress and the gradual support of the literature, endoscopic spinal surgery has covered more spinal fields than ever before, and achieved good clinical results. We reviewed the currentsituation of biportal endoscopic spine surgery and prospectedits new developmenttrend in the future.
