BACKGROUND: Lumbar disk herniation can be successfully treated by lumbar endoscopic spinal procedures. However, one of the most important disadvantages of the endoscopic methods used is radiation exposure. There are multiple endoscopic spinal procedures and this study aims to compare unilateral biportal endoscopic diskectomy (UBED), percutaneous endoscopic lumbar diskectomy (PELD), and microendoscopic diskectomy (MED) methods in terms of radiation exposure.
