Unilateral Biportal Endoscopic Discectomy (UBED) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to treat lumbar disc herniations. It involves the use of two small portals: one for the endoscope and the other for surgical instruments. The bone curette is one of the essential tools used in this procedure to remove bone and soft tissue, providing access to the herniated disc and decompressing the affected nerve roots.
Remove Osteophytes: Bone spurs that can impinge on nerve roots.
Prepare Disc Space: Creating space for the insertion of other surgical instruments and the removal of the herniated disc material.
Debride Tissue: Cleaning up and removing any loose tissue or debris around the surgical site.
Components
Shaft: The long, slender part of the curette, which can be straight or slightly curved to facilitate access to the surgical site.
Handle: Ergonomically designed for a comfortable and secure grip, allowing precise control during the procedure.
Tip: The working end of the curette, which can come in various shapes (e.g., spoon-shaped, ring-shaped) and sizes to match different surgical needs.
| Working Length(mm） | Working Diameter(mm) |
| 150 | 3.0 |
| 150 | 5.0 |
| 150 | 6.0 |
| 160 | 3.0 |
Bone Removal: Used to carefully remove bone spurs and other bony obstructions to access the herniated disc.
Soft Tissue Debridement: Helps in clearing out soft tissue to enhance visibility and access during the procedure.
Disc Preparation: Prepares the intervertebral disc space for the insertion of other surgical instruments and the removal of herniated disc material.
