UBE – Unilateral Biportal Endoscopy
Products supplied and manufactured by MaxMoreSpine
Optimise your spinal surgeries with UBE: two portals, maximum precision, reduced post-operative pain for an early return home and better tissue preservation.
Pioneering technology
Unilateral biportal endoscopy (UBE) is an innovative arthroscopic approach to the spine using two percutaneous access routes. It allows for triangulation of the surgical procedure, without muscle sectioning and with minimal bleeding. Developed in South Korea more than 10 years ago, this technique is now being deployed in Europe thanks to its innovation, effectiveness and ease of use.
Instrumentation for unilateral biportal endoscopy
Biportal Endoscopic Spine System, BESS
The MaxMoreSpine Biportal system has been specially
designed for minimally invasive spine surgery. Each instrument
is designed for decompressing various pathology in the spinal
canal and foramen with preserving facet stability. It is composed
of different special instruments, one for curettes, chisels,dilator, hammer, dissector and small and rotational punches.
Extra-set for fusion can be served for special customers, in
which there are various retractors, such as root retractor,
UV(universal)retractors and viewing portal retractors.
Advantages
for BESS compared to open surgery
BESS is simple and safe and mostly no need of bloodtransfusion, which means less tissue destructive and vital-stable surgery. So it can spread very fast in local private hospital with less amount of equipment. Its effectiveness and safety allows it to displace microscopic surgery for common degenerative spine disorders except tumor resection, high thoracic surgery and deformity correction.
