OBJECTIVE: To investigate the utility, safety, and feasibility of a novel endoscopic technique for the visualization and surgical manipulation of the filum terminale in fresh postmortem adult human cadavers.
METHODS: The filums from 18 fresh postmortem adult human cadavers were explored with a percutaneous fully endoscopic interlaminar approach. After the filum was identified and the nerve roots were dissected away from it, the filum was cut. A specimen was sent for histopathologic examination.
RESULTS: In 15 of 18 (83%) cadavers, the filum terminale could be visualized. A specimen for histopathologic examination was obtained from 11 of 15 (73%) visualized filums. Histopathologic examination revealed that 2 of them were fatty filums, 7 were normal filums, and 2 were peripheral nerves.
CONCLUSIONS: We have described a successful and feasible percutaneous fully endoscopic interlaminar approach to the filum terminale. This technique provides a smaller skin incision, narrow durotomy, and minimal tissue damage. Animal studies are necessary to prove the feasibility and safety of our method before clinical use.
