Discal cyst has been recognized as a distinct cause of back pain and radiculopathy. The clinical features are similar to other pathologies as disc prolapse and stenosis. Various treatment modalities have been described, ranging from nerve blocks to surgical excision. There are scarce reports on the endoscopic appearance of discal cysts. The present paper based on two cases operated by transforaminal and interlaminar endoscopy at our institute demonstrates the explicit intraoperative view and different pathological components of discal cysts.

Key-words:

Discal cyst - discectomy - endoscopy - percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar lumbar discectomy - percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy - percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal lumbar discectomy
