Resume

This study is aimed at a comprehensive assessment of the morphometric characteristics of the lamino-spinal and interlaminar spaces in biportal endoscopic discectomy, their role in ensuring visualization quality, and their association with clinical outcomes. A total of 42 patients diagnosed with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation who underwent surgical treatment were included. Clinical efficacy was evaluated using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain intensity, the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) for functional limitation, and the Modified MacNab criteria during preoperative and postoperative follow-up periods. Radiological assessment was performed using magnetic resonance imaging to determine the degree of decompression and the presence of residual compression. The results demonstrated that adequate and standardized visualization of the lamino-spinal and interlaminar spaces is significantly associated with rapid pain regression, sustained functional recovery, and a low rate of intraoperative complications. The findings provide a scientific basis for developing individualized surgical strategies based on segment-specific morphological features and for improving the clinical effectiveness and reproducibility of biportal endoscopic techniques.
