Few neurosurgeons practicing today have had training in the field of endoscopic spine surgery during residency or fellowship. Nevertheless, over the past 40 years individual spine surgeons from around the world have worked to create a subfield of minimally invasive spine surgery that takes the point of visualization away from the surgeon's eye or the lens of a microscope and puts it directly at the point of spine pathology. What follows is an attempt to describe the story of how endoscopic spine surgery developed and to credit some of those who have been the biggest contributors to its development.
如今仍在执业的神经外科医生中，很少有人在住院医师或专科医师培训期间接受过内镜脊柱手术领域的培训。然而，在过去40年里，来自世界各地的脊柱外科医生致力于创建一个微创脊柱手术的子领域，将可视化的角度从外科医生的眼睛或显微镜镜头转移到脊柱病变的直接部位。以下是对内镜脊柱手术发展历程的描述，并对其发展做出最大贡献的一些人表示敬意。
