Purpose of the Meeting

While the official congress focuses on broad spine topics, this exclusive Nexon pre-meeting is designed to:

  • Explore where endoscopy truly adds value in modern spine surgery
  • Discuss monoportal and biportal strategies across indications
  • Address complex pathologies, not just standard disc herniations
  • Encourage open discussion and controversy, rather than promotion
  • Create a focused East–West exchange among endoscopy experts
