| Core Tip |
Hidden blood loss (HBL) represents a substantial and often underestimated component of perioperative bleeding in endoscopic spine surgery. As highlighted by recent evidence, irrigation-based techniques may obscure ongoing hemorrhage, which creates a disconnect between visible and physiological blood loss. While HBL is consistently observed across endoscopic procedures, its predictors remain context-dependent and its clinical relevance is not yet fully defined. Rather than relying on visible intraoperative blood loss alone, clinicians should interpret perioperative bleeding within a broader framework that accounts for procedural complexity and patient factors. |
